Any fellow watch lovers in here? I'm sure Bond converted some of you. Feel free to discuss all things watches, Bond or not in here.

I'll start off with a Wristwatch check. Please don't crucify me for my decision not to buy a Bond watch. Still, an Omega on a Nato so there's that.

    I have the NASA strap :))

    I'll probably put it on one day for fun. If I do, I'll post it here.

    BTW, crappy collection you're missing the Casino Royale Seamaster...

    Seriously though, you should be proud. What an unbelievable collection. Glad to see another huge Omega fan here. Omega as a brand has been with my family for generations so Bond is just a really nice icing on the cake.

    If I may ask, what would you say are your top 3?

    I'd have to say the Speedy, Planet Ocean 2500 (the other ones I'm not a massive fan of but I adore the 2500), and the Spectre Edition Master Co-Axial. Special shoutout to your 60s Omega Diver though... (I'm assuming a watchco NOS?)

    I am starting to think we were brothers separated at birth :D

    The watchporn thread is definitely the place to visit to see some fine pieces

    Spoilsport here.

    Since we already have a dedicated watch thread, do we need this one as well?

    Bond44, is that vintage SM300 on a Hirsch? I've just bought a black Hirsch for one of mine.
    It was either that.....or the priesthood

    I hate to point this out Barbel but the other thread is only supposed to used once a week.

    Yeah you got it - parallels again Chris parallels again (I have a black one too because of DC and the SPECTRE launch!!!)
