PAUL HAS THE NEW 40TH ANNIVERSARY 007


2005SUBMARINER

Recommended Posts

Yep. But I think the genuine is only produced in blue. Not sure though.

I'm not a huge fan of that dial, either. The original looks better (imho).

Already being discussed here, plus this is a terrible rep of an ugly gen.

Also, it isn't the 'new 40th Anniversary 007' - the watch is misnamed.

Do you want any more reasons why this isn't worth getting excited about....?

(Note to mods/admin - can we close duplicate threads in future?!)

You think those are ugly and tasteless? You'd better think again?

Can you rape the classic tool watch any more effectively than this?

They should have put different colored stones with rotatable bezel at 15, 30, 45, and 60...then it would be somewhat functional.

UGLY!!!!

Thought this might be of interest.

The OMEGA Seamaster Professional Diver has been worn by Pierce Brosnan in all four of his James Bond movies, including the 2002 film Die Another Day. He chooses the stainless steel full size with blue face, blue bezel on a stainless steel bracelet -- models 2531.80 (automatic) or 2541.80 (quartz).

Sellers of OMEGA watches sometimes loosely apply the 'James Bond' nickname to any of the skeleton-hand OMEGA Seamaster models. But so far, only the 2531.80 and 2541.80 have ever appeared on Bond's wrist in a film, though it is reasonable to consider the mid-sized versions of both those watches (2551.80 and 2561.80) to also be 'James Bond' watches.

In the earlier James Bond films starring Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, and Timothy Dalton, Bond is often seen wearing a Rolex Submariner. Thunderball featured various watches by Rolex, Breitling, and Breitling's "Top Time" line. On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969) featured George Lazenby as Bond wearing his personal Rolex Submariner (bought while auditioning for the role) and a Rolex Chronograph. Several of the later Roger Moore films such as The Spy Who Loved Me (1978) and Octopussy (1983) featured Seiko watches -- most notably ones with high-tech digital or video displays.

Other models of the Seamaster have been featured as movie tie-ins. The Edge (1997) features Alec Baldwin wearing an OMEGA Seamaster Professional Chronograph which becomes involved in an interesting plot complication.
