  1. Hey Bond, where are those midsizes sold? Are they accurate about the new coax look? Ah, it might be too small. I'm used to the Speedy Pro.

    Is that what you're looking for??? But....

  2. The full list of James Bond's watches

    Rolex Submariner:

    Rolex and James Bond have a strong connection. Before Omega started supplying the watches for 007, Bond used a Rolex Submariner in several movies:

    Dr. No (1962)

    From Russia With Love (1963)

    Goldfinger (1964)

    Thunderball (1965) (and a Breitling Top Time but no pics... sorry)

    You Only Live Twice (1967)

    On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969)

    Diamonds Are Forever (1971)

    Live And Let Die (1973)

    The Living Daylights (1987)

    Licence To Kill (1989)

    In the books of Ian Fleming, James Bond wears a Rolex Oyster Perpetual, but not many details are given by Fleming which makes it hard to find an exact description of this watch.

    Rolex Chronograph 6238:

    A stainless steel Rolex Chronograph wristwatch, ref. 6238 was used for the movie: On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969).

    The actual watch was sold for GBP 23,400.00/USD 41,000.00 at Christies London, 16th December 2003. This watch was purchased by Eon Productions for George Lazenby to wear as Bond when, undercover as genealogist Sir Hilary Bray, he infiltrates Blofeld's research institute, Piz Gloria, in the Swiss Alps. At the end of filming, the wardrobe department sold off some of the costumes and accessories from the film and this watch was purchaed by the production accountant at the time. The watch was supposed to have been redesigned to be a compasss and the red seconds hand was the compass hand to guide James Bond.

    Live And Let Die (1973)

    Seiko 0674 LC:

    ga018mb0.jpg

    The Seiko 0674 5009 was used by Bond in the 1977 movie The Spy Who Loved Me. 007 receives a ticker-tape message on the watch, telling him to report to Headquarters.

    This watch is, like all the Seiko's used in Bond movies, quite rare. Beware of sellers on eBay offering similar Seiko models, claiming it to be the Bond watch, but there is only one correct model Seiko 0674 5009, and that is the one pictured here.

    Seiko M354 5010 Memory-Bank Calendar:

    The Seiko M354 5010 Memory-Bank Calendar was used by Bond in the 1979 movie Moonraker. The watch is equipped with explosives and a remote detonator, which Bond uses to escape from the Moonraker launch platform.

    This watch is, like all the Seiko's used in Bond movies, quite rare. Beware of sellers on eBay offering similar Seiko models, claiming it to be the Bond watch, but there is only one correct model Seiko M354 5010.

    Seiko H357 5040:

    007h357od0.jpg

    The Seiko H357 5040 was used by Bond in the 1981 movie For Your Eyes Only.

    This watch is, like all the Seiko's used in Bond movies, quite rare. Beware of sellers on eBay offering similar Seiko models, claiming it to be the Bond watch, but there is only one correct model Seiko H357 5040, and that is the one pictured here.

    Seiko TV Watch:

    From Octopussy, Seiko TV Watch tested in Q's lab. The real version has a black & white screen.

    Seiko G757 Sports 100:

    The Seiko G757 Sports 100 watch is used by Bond (Roger Moore) in Octopussy. The Seiko is equipped with a tracking device to locate the Faberg

  3. 1. A replica watch shows off what you really don't have: Absolutely NOT! That so pathetic...

    2. Almost anyone can tell a replica watch from an authentic one: Shop at RWG...

    3. A replica watch will actually impress no one: Probably true, but that is not why I buy them. I bought because I love them...

    4. A replica watch will never grow up in value: Probably true...

    5. Poor durability: Depends on the factory and dealer

    6. Lack of precision: Depend

    7. Lack of additional functions and complications: You know nothing about replicas...

    8. Lack of innovative features: You know nothing about replicas...

    9. Replica watch buyers involuntarily support illegal activity of fake watch producers: And your Nike my friend??? Please...

    10. Inner feeling of dissatisfaction: Depend of the product.

  4. Hello everybody,

    Let me introduce my Vintage lady Omega De ville. This model is full automatic (of course) and made with 24K Gold (watch and movement). This model was produced in little quantity so it's a real collector very hard to found on the market.

    Omega's expert price: 3000 to 4000 euros. Perfect condition. That was my grand mother's watch. I love this model!

    Here some pics:

  5. OK thanks. Your answers are a good advise for me and I decided to buy the classic ETA Bond SMP: 2220.80. Now I have to inform me a little bit, because the customs of Germany are very strict and at the moment I don't know where to buy a good rep of this watch.

    You are in Europe so you can buy at Precious Time (base in UK) or Eurotimez (base in Poland). Wherever, Silix and King have a good one to. :)

  6. 1- Sorry my english is not perfect. And I just use a wrong word. Sorry.

    2- Yes, now I understand but change the bezel and fix the aligment are differents things. I'am not interesting by change the bezel but, I'am interesting by fix the aligment.

    3- Now I'am looking for the Precious time's SMP for security and quality reason cause Precious Time work likes Eurotimez. That should interest you I think. http://www.ptswiss.com/

    Sorry for all the misunderstanding

  7. I'am very affraid to send money to King now... Cause I would like a real ETA and a good watch... Finally what's the best issue? Silix's SMP? Anyone can send a pics of the Silix's SMP? In my opinion, the Silix have a wrong needles size... and a clone ETA movement.

    Anyone can say what's wrong on the King's SMP? I understand nothing about what's happen. Personally I'am not interesting by change the bezel or change the pearl.

    Have you guys noticed that non-Bond SMPs have wonderful crown guards???

    So what?

  8. I think You guessed it correctly. I have seen this structure in the Planet Ocean: The pearl is glued to a protrusion on the bezel, and the bezel insert has a hole that lets the pearl stick through it. :)

    Ok, ok but when you turn the bezel what's happen?
