Yeah one of the biggest giveaways is the bracelet behind the bezel is more of a circle vs the real which would be more of a square shaped. That's the most obvious, but once you start looking at it you'll find more differences... Hey it fools the average sorority girl though
KAdd
How did you find the skyfall AT is it satisfying?
Im in dilemma on to purchase either the Skyfall at or the Spectre AT (not limited edition)
which one do you guys think is more Iconic to Bond?
I lke the old dial face for the at but like the new bracelet for the AT spectre one
Cheers
Hart,
Your question/post is confusing.
Kadd has bought a SM300 not an AT.
Are you thinking about buying a SM300 (not limited edition)?
If so, you can wear it on either the steel strap or a NATO strap.
Or are you really thinking of buying an AT - Skyfall or SPECTRE worn model. Or perhaps the limited edition Bond AT (not worn in the film).
Of all those, I think the (not limited edition) SM300 on an Omega NATO strap would represent the best value and give you the iconic style.
Just to add, I have the le aqua terra, and an old annual calender aqua terra, the new bracelets on the aqua terra are fantastic, I love the le version but would probably go for the sf version if I was you and source a new version bracelet.
It was either that.....or the priesthood

I'd go for the SF AT too. That's the one that will be the more iconic as it's seen and worn throughout the whole film apart from the PTS. Plus the dial colour was specifically made for DC in that film. Also a short production run so it may be more sought after in future.

Well I'm shocked, I knew there were fakes all over the place, the odd one on eBay etc but I assumed you would have to actively seek them out, but a friend of mine pointed me in the direction of Gumtree, telling me there's a watch you might like at a really fair price so off I go to look and I find the omega smp 300 in amongst dozens of UK based fakes including this monstrosity!
THREE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVE QUID??? It's not even a fake of any real watch, honestly call me naive but I never really look or buy watches from anywhere other than my trusted suppliers who I've used many times so I was simply not expecting to see these.
I have put an offer in on the smp though which seems above board, I will pay using an escrow service, as the watch looks OK to me but you never can be sure until you've seen them in the flesh.

That photo makes me want it even more!! haha
did you get the 38mm dial as well?
i like the old dial with silver date but prefer the new bracelet, do you think its possible to get the new bracelet and put nto the 38mm dial? as i know the new at does not come out in 38mm

Just opening the debate...
Do you think LE models will appreciate less than standard versions?
I think different models will appreciate differently, there are so many le's the bond le aqua terra is already losing money, the SM300 is holding its own, the sa models seem more desirable but early Brosnan smp's can be found very cheaply.

What he said. I think the one that will appreciate greatly in future years will be the SPECTRE SM300. It already commands a premium less than a year after it sold out. I don't think I've seen one go for less than the RRP, even used.

Well Antiquorum just sold an Omega PO LE (quantum of solace) for USD 7'500...VAT comes on the top of that.
The serial number was 5007/5007, but it doesn't explain the premium.
Only last week I saw a qos planet ocean limited edition for sale for 3650 gbp with all box and papers in excellent condition. Some of these watches are very inconsistent price wise.

What is the true current value of this watch ?
IMHO, the true value ranges between USD4'000 and 4'500.

But there is one positive thing about it; no one will mistake it for the real thing.

That's awful. A pebble on a shoelace would be more convincing. Throw it in the bin.
