The returns on the whole Bond Omega thing may be well off in the future when the younger generation that's growing up in this era comes of age financially and wants to buy the watch that Bond wore when they were young. And to that generation that watch will be an Omega. That's the hoped for end result anyway. Of course, by the time that happens Bond could be wearing an Apple watch.

Very tough to get and in high demand.

Bond or no bond, they did a great job on this watch.

SM300 Spectre sold out? It is readily available at most Omega boutiques, at least they ones I have been at. It is a "limited" edition of 7,007, for crying out loud.

Are you sure of that?

I've tried a little and been unable to locate one except on eBay which has a big mark up.

I mean, 7,007...that's not a lot in the grand scheme of things.

I could very well be wrong, but based on my small research, the feeback I have consistently gotten is that there are no more to be had.

Have you seen otherwise?

Not conclusive by any stretch, but online research and my own boutique tells me the same thing.

Meant to link that last time.

Local boutiques in southern California reminds me the same thing whenever they see me wearing mine. I know it's also sold out in Japan as well at the boutiques.

To many, it's a lifestyle.
