Great ad and anything linked to 007 usually does well.

Love James Bond but that watch with fake patina does not belong on Bond with a Tuxedo

Just got this watch yesterday. I think it is strong in appearance and wear. The bracelet is very cool and different in a good way. The watch has almost no weight compared to others. I am liking it.

I just can't get over the straight bracelet at the lugs, even if the rest grows on me the bracelet/lug connection just doesn't look refined. Congrats on the watch, looks great on you.

Looks great - I keep thinking about one also. Would the black rubber from the normal SMP fit? I think that would look great.

Great looking watch and I might end up picking one up but the bracelet lug connection that you mention is the only reason I didn’t leave with it. It makes the bracelet look like an afterthought. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Congratulations! It looks great and I was also loving the lack of weight when I tried it on. I know bracelet is a hit or miss but I love it. It’s comfortable and the whole watch has a nice vintage vibe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It's a great watch, I didn't flinch @ this one while I kept waiting with the new seamasters. Can't wait till the movie comes!
Thanks for sharing the ad OP. |

Had mine since April and do love the watch! The crystal and lume are probably my favorite parts.

I like the marker at 6, instead of the date. Very cool.

Wow, that is some impressive lume! Almost makes me re-consider my decision to pass.
Does anyone know if the bracelet can be interchanged with a regular SMP bracelet? |

But back to the lume... I was surprised when I saw the lume in the bezel. It looks awesome in person and you captured it well. You need to stop sharing pics because I know it's still at the OB waiting for me and you're not helping. |

On a side note one of the OB in town recently closed down and they had a huge Daniel Craig poster (and George Clooney) and when I asked about it I was told it was cut up and thrown away. I mentioned that it was a waste and I would have loved to take it off their hands and the reply was "Really? You should have said something!" Although I question if they would have been able to give it to me. I think that was sales person talk to give the impression like I am special enough. |

Love the looks of this watch after seeing it on a billboard. Doesn't hurt that I love James Bond as well. Looks like MSRP is $9200. You think these will fall below that on secondary market given these aren't limited production? Would like to pick one up but not in a hurry and waiting a couple more months to see what prices look like.
