My Bond Watch Collection! | A 007 Journey Through Time

[@KingRandor]

I'm a professional thief and my colleagues and I are watching this video with great interest. Great collection David.

[@jeffreardon3969]

That collection is worth a bloody fortune! The ultimate Bond collector.

[@TheBondExperience]

Thanks, fun and nostalgic!

[@sympathyforthebezel6068]

I have a feeling something new is coming from Omega any day now. Perhaps a normal sized PO sans He release valve?

[@vilhamdutch2962]

@@TheBondExperience dude your no time to die is waterlogged. It’s hazed u got to open it up before it rusts man. Ouch 🤕

[@sinjinadams2862]

I love looking at other people's collections no matter what it is. It makes me feel better about myself knowing I'm not the only one obsessed by something and spending obscene amounts of money on it. I collect a number of things, watches being one of them. Nice collection!

[@andrewmcilroy901]

A couple nice watches sure, but at some point maybe it is time to donate to charity vs spending 10k on another seamaster that looks basically the same as the rest.

[@sinjinadams2862]

Well, you're making some pretty big assumptions here. You do understand people can do both.

[@theurbangentry]

This was absolutely bloody awesome, Thank you David! I look forward to catching up. I would love to have you back on the channel in the fall, I will email you in the next few weeks to set something up. My best to you and your family. Un grande abbraccio! T. Ps. I adore that 5513, but the star of the show for me is that Brosnan era blue 300m Pro. Pure class.

[@TheBondExperience]

Absolutely! Let’s make a plan.

[@steffenpelz7114]

The Aqua Terra Skyfall (38mm) is the obvious one that is missing. But 007 also wears a 41mm version of the same AT in the Mexico City portion of Spectre and the very beginning of NTTD. Really a no brainer to get one of those two... which one depends on your size preference and wrist size.

[@danv.1212]

Many of the Omegas are out of my budget range, so, I had a custom built Seiko SKX 009 made. My goal was to make “the watch bond would wear.” Interestingly enough it ended up looking similar to the new 60th anniversary edition Omega, but still kept it true to the Seiko brand :-)

[@m2k125]

Would like to see a picture of it :)

[@stewarthenwood7801]

In my opinion I have to say that I love pretty much all the watches of James Bond, but have to say the Omega are my favourite by far, I am lucky to own what I consider the best Omega Seamaster 300m Quartz from Goldeneye I purchased it about a week after I saw the movie, at the time I got it, the Shop I brought it from also gave me some Goldeneye promotional leaflets and also the display stand with 007 on it! I do love the new Blue Colour Seamasters but the more muted blue on the older models for me tells a story of Bonds military background.

I enjoy so much and look forward to watching your your knowledge of James Bond and James Bond fashion and all the accessories he uses is incredible. I enjoy James Bond immensely for my son passed away 4 1/2 years ago. I had a fine things to keep myself going and one of those things was watching James Bond movies, and discovering your KZbin channel, thank you so much for everything you do and thank you for bringing back some joy and happiness to my life

[@AK-rq1cz]

David, this is mind-blowing. I'm a watch and Bond fanatic, sharing this with the world of fans is a true gift, I appreciate it so much. Best wishes and health.

[@jrandom2995]

Great collection. You spoke very accurately about why some of us are drawn to watches. It’s the memory and the connection. Also it’s about the chase and accomplishments leading up to acquiring a new piece. Recent subscriber and love the videos man.

[@jamesrichards7626]

Awesome video David. So proud to see the old Gruen and two tone seiko where they rightfully belong.

[@Milofchg]

Great personal collection and amazing Bond collection. The original Bond watch was a Rolex 1016 Explorer. Worn by Ian Fleming. Those Rolex references that Sean Connery wore in the movies are worth $25k plus

[@_rubberbandit3697]

As soon as I saw the Seamaster with Brosnan as Bond, I fell in love with it. I’ve owned the 36mm automatic version since 2001 and wear it every day

[@curtisgrice9579]

Thanks for your insight and look into the collection, David! Bond is simply the best.

[@fatu1738]

Love seeing this man follow his passion. Quantum of Solace deserves another review aa to why it's a timeless movie in many ways.

[@monochromebluess]

The Gruen watch was a great addition to the collection. What a great guy to have offered it to you. Thanks for presenting the Omega’s and …… the Rolex. As I have several vintage Longines watches - My favourite was your late father’s gold Longines watch. Keep that one safe.

[@proman1926]

I remember I got a Timex for Christmas and I felt all kinds of grown up.

[@jproog41]

I love the point you make - part of the appeal of watches is they're tied to a memory. I believe this 100%. And I love that case!

[@melodicchronic5181]

Love this collection so much!! This is the first video I've ever seen from you. So I know nothing about you. I'm curious how you can afford all these watches. If you're going into debt to get this collection. Just one of those watches is worth a lot more than my entire watch collection.

[@darrenfry4695]

Thanks David for sharing your awesome watch collection, I really enjoyed seeing some very prized watches of yours ,I'm so jealous by the way,lol. T.y once again..uk fan.

[@RipiresReviews]

YES! Fantastic video, ive looked forward to this for years :) What a great video David!

[@johnwalters4792]

I have just one item that was used in any Bond film. That silver Parker pen from Goldeneye. Something really cheap that anyone can own that was used by James Bond.

[@agent00asmr]

I can appreciate that! I have small cheap items as well, but still connect me. A Red Stripe beer bottle, a Slazenger golf ball. And I have the Invicta equivalent of the Casino Royale watch. It's what I could afford yet it has held up to some rigorous wearing.

[@craigenger2782]

Great Collection! I've got a Rolex Submariner (No Date) per early Bond films and Rolex Explorer as Fleming wore an Explorer. In the books Bond wears Rolex. Geek Note: Dalton wore not only a Heuer Professional Night-Dive Reference 980.031 but also Rolex Submariner Ref. 16610, thus continuing the Bond Tradition of Sean Connery, early Roger Moore

[@johncorcoran2569]

Thanks David! I miss my Bond Seamaster Soo much. Keep it in your collection.

[@MrSilami]

I love my Tudor Blackbay 58, as an homage to Dr No. Tudor traditionally being Rolex more affordable subbrand, taking Rolex cases and putting more affordable movements inside, with the Blackbay 58 brought back an old version of Cubby Broccoli’s Dr No Rolex Submariner.

[@scottbearden]

Yay for 4k video! I first learned about your channel from your first collaboration with TGV. I'm happy to see how your channel has grown and I'm hoping you can hit 100k subscribers by the next Bond premier.

[@chasm6698]

Your Pulsar P2 has two buttons, which is later model with a date display. The movie watch was the time-only single-button P2, which was Pulsar's first production model of the world's first digital watch. So that one's a close-but-not-quite. Still a great and very collectible watch.

[@Waynebruce008]

The two Bond watches that I like the most are the" Quantum of Solace" Planet Ocean and the "Skyfall" Aqua Terra( I am extremely lucky to own both of them). I know you Sir like your Planet Ocean, so I highly recommend the Aqua Terra. Simple, but beautiful. I remember I ordered the wrong one at first ( 41mm with the black dial). Then I found out that the correct one was 38,5mm and blue. Had to wait for extra 3 months for it , but it was worth the wait.

[@billb89]

I can’t imagine having a Bond watch collection without a blue dial Aqua Terra.

[@goldencalf5144]

Great video. Reminds us how late Omega was to the Bond party. So many other watch brands were associated with 007 before Omega.

[@smogdanoff7053]

Oh wow was gonna mention WMT before watching the video. Recently bought a Sea diver specced like the Submariner 6538 in Goldfinger, extremely happy with it!

[@seanwarren5613]

Great video David!👍 You should definitely get an Aquaterra, SF, SP and NTTD were all defining films on your journey. I also think you need a Tissot PR-516 in your LALD area to finish it off👌

[@paulj5998]

Hey David. How have you been? I came across your site while researching my recent purchase (The Quantum Seamaster) and it been fun to see you still have the love of props! Hope we can catch up sometime!

[@hobokenarts]

Thanks for sharing David-awesome collection! Watches and all!!

[@Calypso694]

been getting in to watch collecting finally specifically Bond of course. glad i found this one. My big gripe is that Omega is purley for marketing. I wish for once theyd pick a practical watch a spy would actually wear for once.

[@TheOneWhoLaughs101]

I got say, the Spectre Omega watch is the best looking Bond watch IMO 😍⌚️

[@sandy7730]

Oh wow. You got the 60th anniversary! How did you get your hands on one? Impossible to find at dealers!

[@caseyzaft6734]

That Rolex is by far the best!

[@spaztekwarrior]

Love that Goldeneye Seamaster. Was my second luxury watch. I love the Aqua Terra and would like one with a blue face steel on steel one day. :)

[@steveb4012]

Another interesting video. I have the Casino Royale limited edition Planet Ocean bought in 2007. I also have the " Goldeneye " 300m Diver, my very first luxury watch. The Aqua Terra calls to me too, I may scratch the itch when the wife isn't looking!

[@optimizedpran1247]

This man is a professional.

[@mspeedster7074]

Thanks for sharing your collection, I really enjoyed this video! Amazing prop watches and real watches! I've been a Bond fan since I was a kid in the 60s & 70s, but didn't buy my first proper Swiss watch until the late '80s, which was a TAG Heuer. So I'm very well acquainted and own a Heuer ref 980.031 black pvd Night Diver as seen in The Living Daylights. BTW, you are correct not to get yours anodized in black. The one you have in silver is more likely ref. 980.115 or 980.113. Ref 980.031 only came in black.

[@richardtwyning]

My watch moment that really got me into watches was at the age of around 10 or 11 when I saw Live And Let Die for the first time.

[@johnj.broughton585]

Thanks, this one is a great segment David!

[@GuyVanderAa]

Impressive watch collection. Cool. 😎

[@loducawarrior]

Terrific video, thank you for sharing. Love all the watches in your collection and in the display. I have the GoldenEye quartz that I love and a Planet Ocean similar to the Casino one but a bit different. Love Omega but have different things, Seiko, Squale, Panerai, Tudor. Definitely a watch guy. Thank you again for sharing.

[@DB1991]

I’ve just purchased a 2017 planet ocean and also a 2017 Seamaster 300 (heritage) currently working out which one to keep and which one to return. I’ll have to sleep on it 🙈

[@TheBondReport]

Loved it man! I always love when you give us a little show in the “Other Room”. The Earth Swatch is my favorite in the series too. Can you tell me where you got the Paloma Soda bottle?

[@05Rudey]

I saved up long and hard for a Omega Seamaster 300 professional 2542.80 about 15 years ago, putting a little aside every month just so I didn't put myself into any financial trouble. I was told, save for a year because it just might be a short lived obsession and if you still want it after a year, then the love is real. I just wanted 1 nice watch for special occasions and to give me that Bond moment boost.

[@HEATSEEKER00]

Great video David, Maybe your wife would like the 2008 Swatch 'Rosa Klebb' watch 😂

[@tonypointless]

At one point I had 3 vintage Moore era Seikos but never wore them. I bought a modern Seiko Arnie like Moore has in AVTAK which is my grab and go. I have a Gruen Precision. I was goin to buy an Omega Planet Ocean but decided on a Tudor Pelagos because of the adjustable bracelet. It’s essentially just a modernized Tudor Submariner which was a military watch from Rolex’s little brother company. So that feels like a Bond watch in spirit. And speaking of the spirit of Bond. Rolex was a tool watch when Fleming wrote in the books and when Connery first wore one. In Rolex and Omega have moved away from their military heritage so perhaps: Tudor, Sinn, Seiko, Citizen, CWC, Marathon etc are what Bond would be wearing now?

[@davidparrishproductions5082]

Fun video! Love your videos, collection and sense of humor David!

[@milankovacevic1483]

Dalton wore rolex in License to Kill, so there you go ;) Exquisite collection btw.

[@mrt5725]

I’d love to know where you watch box is from (brand / where you can order from). Looks pretty well made and I need to upgrade my Amazon watch box! 😀

[@joerngrossblotekamp]

What a nice review, thank you. Have you considered adding a Goldfinger Rolex Submariner? One of your Omegas already has the strap. 11:57 Tuxedos are formally worn without wrist watch. If a watch is required, it can be a pocket watch.

[@Thehumblecollectoruk]

Great collection .watches speak bond thanks sharing

[@SammyLegends_JamesBondShow]

Awesome video David. I'm in the process of doing a watch roundup video for my channel too. My first watch was a murdered out 41mm Timex Fairfield Supernova chronograph, cheap but does the job. Next, I got the limited edition Seiko SSC909 chronograph with the icy blue dial. 1 of 10,000. Then I got a Omega x Swatch Speedmaster MoonSwatch Mission To Mars. And finally, JUST YESTERDAY, I bought my first ACTUAL Bond watch. I got the newest version of the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M with the blue dial. The Goleneye - Die Another Day watch.

[@agent00asmr]

Thanks for the tour, a very impressive, yet fun collection!! I must admit, the nostalgia in me hit hard just seeing the glare off the Seiko watches. Just for fun, I feel the itch 😜, to get a Seiko watch again.

[@Louis-xx2os]

This guy gets it! Thanks for sharing 👍

[@robertp5123]

Very nice collection, David. The Omega Aqua Terra blue dial is definitely a major part of my watch collection. Just like the Quantum of Solace piece you have.. I tend to gravitate to this one on a daily basis. It looks great with anything I wear and it feels extremely comfortable. In general, I think the Aqua Terra is underrated. Omega did come out with different dial colors last year and they are finally becoming available as we speak. The terracotta (red) dial is definitely a stunning piece. I had the opportunity to see one. But, if you really want the Bond one….. the blue dial is really spectacular as well.

[@Kalmar917]

Great video! I have the Rolex big crown ref. 6538. It is a family heirloom which I never wear. I wore it once. It stays in a safety deposit box. I have a 5 digit sub 14060m 2 liner Z series. I got a Tudor BB58 in guilt and another heirloom watch, Korean War era. Lastly, an assortment of Casio watches from the 90s and SKXs. Most of the time I wear the BB58 or my 5 digit sub. The BB58 wears almost exactly the same as the 6538. It’s the closest thing you can buy that has any connection to the original Bond tool watch. The 5-digit I wear everywhere as well. Both are versatile. I did have an Omega Seamaster but sold it. Bought is back in 02 blue face. I think they are great watches but do not particularly like their bezel action. The only thing I feel I am missing is that Rolex Explorer from Flemming’s books. The OG tool watch. I must say you have an amazing collection! One that can be appreciated by an watch enthusiast. Love the vids, keep up the good work!

[@frankv7068]

Awesome watch collection! Love the heavy Omega content with that one Rolex, I see you mentioned Montblanc, has James Bond used fountain pens? Do you have a collection of fountain pens?

I also have Rolex GMT Master 1675 that Roger wore in the Commander outfit production photo for TSWLM. I have the auto Brosnan seamaster auto from 1996 with trit dial and finally a Daydate 1803 which is a Sanchez watch!

[@markodell2379]

Great collection of watches. I like the screen accurate idea as a collector but I always find my own preference creeping in. I have the 38.5mm Aqua Terra but had to go black....the blue is beautiful but I always tire of blue dial watches and never keep them around. The spirit is there though.

[@matthewwhitney1693]

Great video, I just recently bought myself the planet Ocean 43.5 with the orange rubber bezel insert not bond but gone straight on a NATO strap and looks the part, very sweet about your dad, my dad left me a gold watch too and I'll never sell it ,it's like part of him,,sad not to see your goldfinger watch,I stumbled across an article from Rolex magazine from 2005 explaining the nylon strap it was actually a Scottish military strap and they explained the colours,and history of the Scottish military units that wore them,so maybe Connery had a hell of a lot to do with choosing that classic fabric strap

Hi David...... interesting video...... I wear the Rolex explorer with the date window!!!!!! Fleming also wore the Rolex explore.... his personal watch!!!! But I also wear the explore because it was issued to celebrate a kiwi chap knocking off the highest mountain on the planet!!!! Yep Sir Edmund Hillary climbed Everest in 1953..... same year as Casino Royale.....and Rolex issued the explore to celebrate that achievement!!!! So two reasons to wear a Rolex explore..... connected to Bond by the author and knocking the bastard off that is Mt Everest..... also I just happen to be a kiwi!!!!! Thanks cuz bro!!!!!

I always enjoy your content and I’m a believer of BYOB (be your own bond).

Beautiful watch collection. Have one Ginault which a homage to the Rolex mil sub. Got other watches that were in movies like the DW290 from mission impossible, Casio calculator watch that was in back to the future and DW5600 G Shock that was in lots of movies also. Also have the Casio Royale which is similar to Casio bond had. You can also have frugal Bond in watches.

My dear friend. You have a so complete Bond watch collection. But you have to try and acquire the most emblematic Bond watch in history. The one and only true and most iconic Bond watch of all time. And this is thε Rolex Submariner ref. 6538 "Big Crown". Also known to the collectors as the "Bond Sub". I know that they are selling very high in auctions, but your collection will never be complete without this. Sean Connery wore this in the first 4 Bond movies (Dr No, FRWL, Goldfinger and Thunderball). It is considered the ultimate Bond watch and one of the most collectible timepieces ever in watch history

Crazy watch collection! My daily watch of my collection of at least 20 is a Steinhart Ocean One Vintage. It's a homage to a Rolex Sub from the 60's, with the Explorer dial.. To my knowledge, it's closest model they make, to the Rolex (possibly 6538) used in Goldfinger. Of course with a Goldfinger nato strap, worn in the same over-under way he wears it. Though i'm not so anal that it's the 16 or 18mm strap on the 22mm lug width. That's going too far.. I wear the strap which fits it..
