A Seamaster 300m, like we said. That means Commander Bond gets a 41mm steel case with blue ceramic bezel (Liquidmetal scale, naturally) on a blue, red and grey striped NATO strap. The dial – quite unusually for Omega and for Bond watches – is polished white ceramic with blue hour markers and blue skeleton hands. The red seconds hand has a “007” counterweight that we’ve seen deployed before.
Inside is Omega Calibre 2507 – a co-axial automatic with a 48 hour power reserve. It’s been used on Seamasters for a few years, including the model produced to mark James Bond’s 50th anniversary.
