40th Anniversary swatch watch collection

JBwatch · February 2012

I have all 20 of the James Bond swatch watches and it is time i find them a new home, all of the watches are in there boxes never been opend and I even have the original cube design box for the Dr. No watch that is very rare as there is only a handfull made before they changed it to the curve top box. I am trying to find someone who would like to buy the whole collection, as I would like to see the watches go to a good home. All sensible offers considered or if anyone knows someone that might be interested in buying the collection, feel free to PM me

Since this is your first post and we don't know who you are can you at least furnish some photos?

I am currently traveling and unable to upload to the post at the moment via my phone. I will upload photos of all of the watches and the two types of boxes for the Dr No watch. I am happy to email the photos via my phone if anyone needs to see them before tonight

I dug my watches out and had forgoten about the cubes!

I always thought it was strange that they varied the packaging on these. The worst, IMO, were the slim clear packs as they were pretty dull.

Curious how Swatch came up with the idea of these watches when they had nothing to do with the Bond movies. However, since they own Omega, I guess they feel the can use the 007 association on their products.

I would like to know how these watches came about as well. I own the OHMSS watch and I've only worn it once or twice. It's too bulky for a quartz watch and not as well designed for the wrist as higher end watches. I just like the gun barrel design of the face. I would like to see Swatch try again with the ideas I mentioned in that Omega anniversary watch thread.

Yes I'd be interested to know also, while not the sort of watch I'd buy and wear they are still kind of interesting.
