The new Omega Seamaster Professional James Bond Limited Edition!! I traded my Planet Ocean in as a down payment with Rob Caplan at Topper Jewelers. If you've never dealt with Rob before I can't recommend him highly enough! I'm #6 on their pre-order list so I don't know exactly when I'll get the watch, but I think the wait will be worth it! Here are some of Omega's glamor shots:      |

It's a beauty, but I wish Omega would stop with the "Skeleton" hands...just not my cup of tea! |

I have heard that you can send your Seamaster to the service center and have the hands replaced with the plongeur style, but don't know how true that is. I fortunately bought one that came with the plongeur style hands:D. Enjoy that watch when you get it Brian. It's a Beauty  . |

Thanks guys! I too like the regular SMP hands better than the skeleton, but the overall look of the watch overrode that.. I've owned two PO's, and love them, but I have a small wrist and the SMP is the absolute prefect size for me. Now for the hard part...waiting!! :? |

I know they are beginning to show up at a few AD's, but Rob couldn't give me a solid date on when they will get their allotment. Hopefully it will be within the next couple of weeks!!

I was at an AD in Tucson last night and they had just received the new Bond 007. Now, you know, I'm not much of an Omega fan, but this watch was stunning. My only complaint is the hated skeleton hands...wish they had used SeaMaster hands! |

Historically speaking, Omega watches were worn by the British Military during WW II. So, it was only fitting for the James Bond character that Ian Flemming created to be wearing the Omega. The Rolex Submariner used in the 1960's Bond films was owned by the Producer Albert R. Broccoli. However, Ian Flemming never specified what type of watch Bond had in his possession this is according to the novels,which I've read as a teenager, in the 1980's. |
