    Condition makes a huge difference in market value

    You will find all the retail prices on jamesbondlifestyle.

    Spectre.AT limited edition current price is equal to retail price (mint condition)
    Spectre.SM300 limited edition trades around USD8'000 (mint condition)
    Spectre.SM300 trades around USD4'000 (mint condition)

    Condition(Watch itself, original box and papers, etc) and reputation of the seller make a huge difference in market value.

    I tried to see but no retail prices, Remmert does however place the Charity auction prices
    Which one is the Spectre SM 300 you state that is USD 4000?

    You are right, the jamesbondlifestyle site doesn't disclose all the retail prices.
    The new SM300 was released in two different models: one limited edition (5007 pieces) and one "regular" model (which looks very similar to the SA model).

    Omegas website shows the prices now, you'd certainly get prices for the sm300's and the limited ed aqua terra, as well as the aqua terra's from SP and sf. Second hand values will have to be done purely domestically, Ive bought most of my omegas from a company in the USA when the exchange rate has been in my favour. I have maybe an 80% complete collection with a couple of limited editions in my collection and some non bond omega items.

    I thought Hart was only referring to screen used watches. Therefore no point including the LE Aqua Terra or Regular Co-Axial Master Seamaster.

    From my experience (from owning and selling quite a number of these), if buying used....

    Casino Royale Seamaster: Ive had two of these, one £1100 (general condition), £1400 (super condition). Seen a stickered unworn examples still floating on watch forums for £1800

    Casino Royale PO: Sold mine for £1800 and also saw a unworn one sell for same with 2500D movement. Getting harder to find this ref in good condition so easier to buy the bracelet version and rubber seperately.

    QoS PO: i picked up a 2500D version for approx £1600-1800 and sold the same (excellent condition). Quite a common watch

    Skyfall PO: used around £2000-2200 depending on condition

    Skyfall AT: now discontinued but sold mine for £1800 and seen them from this to 2.2K depending on condition

    SPECTRE AT: same as above 2

    SPECTRE SMP LE: I would expect to pay around full retail for a minter since sold out

    You're right Welshboy, he is after only the sa models, I'm still not convinced DC didn't wear a non le SM300 in early shooting? But to be sa for the close ups you would need the limited ed with the lollypop seconds hand. I've bought all my omegas pre owned, including both the SP limited ones, I have noticed though that I loose money on the limited edition Watches more than the standard ones, the exception is the SM300 so far.

    The QoS LE and SF LE seem to hold their values pretty well.

    I've been searching a perfect SF some time ago and have not been able to get one for retail.

    That's interesting Higgins, I part exchanged my qos le for the SF le and didn't get a great price, but it was in the right ball park other qos watches were going for. Maybe because I wear my watches they're never mint? I'm currently negotiating to buy a qos le as I did love that watch.

    It took quite a few months of persistenly searching but I found a perfect unworn SF LE . I wanted one to wear each day not to store as a collectable

    It all depends how choosy you want to be, the company I use for pre owned always come serviced and polished.

    Amazingly the SA Omega PO casino royale rubber strap I purchased in 2007 was £2,200 and I could sell now complete with box and papers for £3,500 on most sites ?:) but I love it too much :)

    I think as Welshboy says the CR rubber strap is getting quite rare now, and maybe there is a timescale when they go up, I lostmoney on qos le and nearly on the SF le, but in the end I kept it.the qos sa watch is quite easy to find at the moment but there seems to be a lot of love for the 2500 movement, I find i catch the 8500 more! But like I say I'm a wearer not a put them on display man. When I finalise the purchase on the qos le I think that will become my daily beater, and with 8 omegas and a couple of other vintage watches I am honestly done buying watches now...... Until bond 25 maybe 8-)

    My prices are prob quite cheap however I was basing mine on forums I frequent such as TZ-UK where prices are reasonable and sales area membership open to long term members etc

    I cant see where Omega will go for the next Bond watch if they keep insisting on a diff watch each film, they seem to have exhausted most avenues and I have lost interest.

    If I was collecting Bond SA Omegas again I would prob pickup the following again and ignore the alternate / later versions (e.g the newer Skyfall PO does nothing for me)


    Old SMP
    One of the 2500 PO's
    One of the ATs (Skyfall was the nicest but a bit small for me, the bigger version was too big and lost its elegance, I needed something in-between)

    Nowadays I only own the SPECTRE SMP - kinda wish I kept a few of the others but they were not getting worn much with my other watches

    Agree with you there Welshie , I tend to wear the PO one everyday , and change between the sm 300 and seamaster DAD 40th anniversary one for nights out.
    Besides never get another one past the wife , I love looking at them :007)

    That's what I've done, I've got a po 2500 which classic black face and bezel, I have that on a connery coloured nato, I've a Sf po, which doesn't get worn that much, a black tux dial aqua terra, the le aqua terra which is a gorgeous watch, SM300m on its bracelet, le SM300m le. A vintage SM300, a deville I've put on a lizard skin omega strap and soon the qos le. I'm sure I've forgotten something but. I just hope bond 25 doesn't use one the new bright coloured po's or the dark side of the moon watch. Omega are just flooding out models at the moment. At least with a blue smp or black po you have a bond watch. My wife is constantly eying up my wooden watch box and I'm sure she's adding them all up!!

    There are some up on the watch porn thread, and also of the two omegas I bought my lucky wife, also some pics on the budget bond thread with some outfits. :) I keep waiting for some decent pics of me wearing the watches, I'm not a huge fan of just pictures of watches on their own, they could be anyone's :D

    Please keep in mind, that I am only collecting unworn and perfectly mint watches.
    I have no clue about previously worn watches and I am sure that prices will vary along condition, completeness and seller reputation.

    Yes I guessed that was the case Higgins, Obviously watches never worn or kept in a collection will have a higher resale value than one of mine which has looked after but ultimately worn regularly. I have to say though that the few I've bought from the company in America have always been in as new condition, like I said, serviced and any wear marks polished out, I've never found a fault with one yet {[]

    Looks like you have a nice Omega collection.
    What do you think about the AT LE ?
    It is growing on me, bit o still prefer the SM LE...
  • HigginsHiggins GermanyPosts: 16,619MI6 Agent
    If you have been asking me, I hate the AT.
    All ATs with a passion which is only surpassed by my hate for welshie's Hulk :v
