The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
^^^ I also saw one this week in the boutique. The bracelet is nice UNLESS YOU WANT 007 PLASTERED ON THE CLASP.
I also looked at the standard SM300 Master Coaxial and the guy told me that he would get the bracelet brushed for no charge.

Yes I noticed the 007 bit on the clasp, which I didn't like, but preferable to it being spashed all over the dial!downer wrote:^^^ I also saw one this week in the boutique. The bracelet is nice UNLESS YOU WANT 007 PLASTERED ON THE CLASP.

It's the marketing I think you'll find we dislike to inflate prices on items I.E Omega , Aston Martin & about a thousand other items they slap 007 on lol.blowfish89 wrote:You people are British, how do you not like Bond?

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
I'd hardly say the 007 logo is splashed/plastered all over the watch. From the ones I've seen the logo is subtly added to the dial, caseback and/or clasp. If Omega is on to a sure winner here (as is the customer for purchasing an investment) then who can blame them for knocking out a few extra limited editions. I'd snap one up if I had that kind of money, but then again being a big Bond fan I am somewhat biased.

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
Bond movies are fine, so are Omegas, but it is bloody uncool in the extreme to slap 007 all over a watch, FFS!

And of course, completely subjective. I would love it if they resurrected the Humphrey Bogart Longines, but if they stamped Mr Rick or Casablanca all over the dial I would certainly give it a wide birth.
