The faux patina, and brown dial and bezel, is why I got the watch. The warmer tones are what did it for me. I didn't want yet another white or rose gold watch. I'm no horologist nor collector. The 007 is secondary, the color palette is entirely what drew me in.

I ended up buying another watch but this was and will likely stay on my list because of the warmer tones as well. I fit in the same category of not being a horologist.

I respectfully disagree on the "faux patina of the lume" it looks more camouflage to me and compliments the none flashy look. I think the watch designers were going for a low vis tactical look more so than the vintage look.

One thing I always find off-putting is when something becomes collectible or popular due to it's association with a particular film, then the manufacturer starts cashing in by creating "collector's editions" and jacking up the prices. I own a Seamaster 2531.80. I like that the watch is associated with Bond but the best thing for me is that it doesn't say 007 or have any references to James Bond on any part of the watch. I think the Spectre is gorgeous and very tastefully done but slapping 007 on the watches and making it obvious they are "Bond Watches" comes off as a bit hokey to me. It's akin to stamping "Alien" or "Ripley" on the Giugiaro

Agreed - it would have been much better if they had left off the OO7 from the case back (and even more so the phoney military stores reference numbers.) It would have still been the 'watch from the film' just by virtue of being on Daniel Craig's wrist and being visible in some shots. Let's face it, the 5513 Rolex Sub will always be known (among other things) as the watch from "Live and Let Die" and "The Man with the Golden Gun" - even though there are no 'James Bond-ish' markings on the watches.

"Easy smiles and expensive watches" is such a good movie line. It is descriptive of a certain style and sensibility that is often what draws so many of us in to the hobby. We can get the watch, but, as we all learn and hopefully later appreciate, true grace under pressure can never be purchased. Loved the review. Thanks, brother. --Michael

I think they got the look spot on, it blends a modern look with a vintage military look very well, let’s not forget it will never be a genuine military issued watch so some form over function can be forgiven? the overall design is very clever seeing as military watches are very much in vogue at the moment. A brand new, military look with broad arrow omega seamaster!! What’s not to like.... thumbs up from me. Just need to find the £8000 to buy one. Excellent review as always TGV, looking forward to the next one 👍

Great highly documented and masterfully edited video. Even though these were the exceptions rather than the rule, there were large diving wristwatches at the time such as the Memovox Polaris (42mm) and the Panerai… I believe there might have been others. I have no problem with the rather unique and peculiar colour scheme adopted for this Omega, it’s pretty. The watch is light, mat all over and extremely well finished. I have just collected mine, it’s awesome, it sure leads to an easy grin

Looks similar to your '58, with no numerals and a Champaign dial. Recently had it serviced, and between the cleaning and a new crystal, looks stunning! I'll wear it for another happy handful of years, then pass it on to my son, as is only proper. Keep up the great work and outstanding content - Thanks!

Same as I couldn't spend extra on Spectre in comparison with Regular Seamaster 300. Somehow I don't like they've militarised this dressy diver. Planet Ocean / Seamaster 300 hands would suit it better - again IMHO :=) Top review, as usual TGV! Glad you still make us happy with your videos!

Hi TGV Would never say that it’s not a cool watch, it most certainly is. I was never much of a titanium watch guy and even lesser a fan of faux patina. But unlike several commentators here I find the combination here spot on. I really understand Omegas choice of combining the matted case with the rather over the top kind of faux patina - together it makes the watch look really rough & tactical. So much for Omegas intentions...would it be something for me? Nah, I’m a more old fashioned kind of a Seamaster 300 man. If it wasn’t for the fantastic movement in this one I wouldn’t even consider changing it with my own 1999 model. It will be interesting to see how this new model holds its value in the future. I think that it is an acquired taste, and not just for me I’m sure... I much prefer it on that beautiful Milanese bracelet by the way. Keep up the good work👍

First and foremost, Sir, your production is top notch. Others have commented as well. I enjoy the History! As a Bond fan this is an extraordinary Timepiece! Continue Production is a plus. Your point of the patina indicines are well taken, but I think it adds to the stealth and the uniqueness of the watch. The Bond/007 signage is subtle yet visible to showcase as a Bond watch. In addition, you mentioned the Golden Eye/Brosnan Seamaster Blue,(Quartz, 36mm) to me the best looking watch of all time. I have a small wrist, so 36mm and thin quartz will fit me perfectly. I am seriously thinking of getting this to round out my collection. If only Omega will incorporate the Helium Valve into the Seamaster case, it would be perfect.

I followed all of TGV's criticisms of this watch in the video, but I recently handled it in the metal and I was rather impressed. It is stunning, actually, standing out from most of the other Seamasters next to it. Rather than looking faux, I think the choice of color gives the watch a smart, understated appearance, while the body provides the ample presence.

Never thought of it as faux patina. To me its just color. And i love it. Will never be able to buy one, but that hasnt stopped anyone in appreciating something. I like the fact they used titanium, i am not sold on the bezel as i would have liked a coin edge but somehow i like the shapes. At the end of the day, it still is an amazing watch and i think its fitting given the fact that supposedly Bond was retired so having a less dress-y watch kind of makes sense. I like the video btw, and the fact that you included the history lesson. As a newbie in the watch world, its something i wish more youtubers would do. Maybe i would have left out the parts with you play-using guns.. Just a smidge over the top. Kudos on the channel and thank you for a great review!

Another work of art sir. I wish I could afford this watch. Even though I consider my collection to be very dark and want something with a bit more colour next, I do love this watch. I own a chronograph, so I think this is little overpriced. I thought that this video was not just an excellent review, but a fitting tribute to Omega and I'm going to share it on the James Bond fan group 👍🏻🙂

Thank you very much for this this review. I will probably watch it time and time again as this is my favourite watch! My horological grail. Yeah so I'm one of these dissenters that actually LOVES faux patina. It's something about the colours. I'm fortunate to own a rather old SKX which was given to me in broken condition. I loved the (non faux) Patina on this so much that I went ahead and for it modded with a NH35, Double Dome Sapphire with Blue AR and Omega style second hand. The crystal really makes the patina pop. I've got a sapphire fully lumed bezel (from Island Watches) flying to me, and that will complete the mod. I really adore the NTTD Seamaster 300m but simply cannot afford it. The only thing missing from this video is the presence of Hugo. I've watched many reviews of this piece and have eagerly awaited this one, and with good reason. Definitely the most engaging review by a long shot. The intro is awesome as is all of the asides and info. Maybe one day I will own one of these!

Its a lovely watch. I just get overwhelmed by Omega and all its various versions of everything. I like that this model stands out a bit more than past versions have, compared to the standard model they're built off.

Absolute killer of an intro TGV! ... just mint! (I noticed there was no mirror/butterfly effect on this one .... great restraint, bravo!). I didn't like this model when I first saw the images on release, but I saw and tried it on in an Omega Boutique and I have to say it changed my mind. But, only on the mesh ... somehow that seemed to make more sense of the style and the fautina ... and a titanium Milanese is a thing of beauty! (a shame you didn't get the option, Sooo LIGHT). Suffice to say I was impressed when I saw it in the metal so to speak. In a pinch id still go for the spectre though I think, but id probably accept either if James offered ;-) Most enjoyable part of my week so far was a strong cuppa and sitting down to watch this ... thank you sir. O&A !

Was waiting for this! I’ve always loved the sea master and speedmaster. This model feels like a nice balance between the two for me, I love the colours but prefer the shape of the sea master. Great video!

I just bought one with the Titanium bracelet. I love the design, not to flashy but oozes quality, and this one crosses all boxes especially with the dark face. Just love it. So light it almost feels cheap. My every day piece is a Sjøø Sandstrøm UTC Skydiver, that I love, but I might have to replace that one now. The only change I would make is that I would like that you could see the the clockwork through the back.

Good video except a couple of things; firstly, it is illegal to use the Broad Arrow without permission and secondly, some people seem to like vintage looks on other brands but not on this watch - I think it looks great.

Personally, I wouldn't buy a watch with a movie reference printed on dial or case back. This one is not that blatant but some of the other 007 Seamasters are. I also prefer the polished case on the regular Seamaster! Great video though!! Cheers my friend!
