New Addition has landed.....Skyfall

A quick shot with the iPhone. While not a Bond junkie, I saw this and couldn't resist it. Just the right bit of understatement.

Absolutely stunning watch. I have no clue where this watch is on the msrp spectrum, but it almost doesn't matter. Definitely would love to acquire one....

Many congrats! I really like the idea of a differentiated and textured dial but personally I would have preferred no mention of Bond/007 on the dial.

Yea.. Me too.. The textured dial is very nice, but 007 ruins everything. Sorry bond fans.

Since there are similar Omegas without the 007 references...I assume anyone who picks one up is a Bond fan and the overt reference is part of what makes the watch great for them. To each his own. I personally don't get the Snoopy Speedmasters.

To each his own. Nice pick up. Enjoy.

Yeah, I just saw it, like literally, JUST saw it. He's got the Aqua Terra on for like 3/4th of the entire film. I'm surprised omega didn't come out with a limited edition AT also. Great movie by the way!

Just saw it too. Plenty of omega shots!

That AT was a blue face, right? Is that a limited edition bond?

Yeah I think it's a blue face, definitely AT though. And no, the limited edition is a PO which he does wear at the beginning of the movie and gets some pretty clear exposure in some scenes.
