It's been a while since I wanted to introduce you to this new Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Edition 007 "No Time To Die" I bought it with the titanium mesh bracelet but I must admit that on this one I prefer it with a tone-on-tone NATO strap... which makes it even lighter. And yes, the lightness is one of the things that seduced me the most beyond its pastel colors which frankly differentiate it from the other Seamaster Diver 300M...

This is my second Omega Seamaster from a James Bond after the more discreet Seamaster 300 "Spectre". I have acquired a taste for the brand and the Seamaster and I must note a fantastic precision of the two models, even more this one with the METAS or Master-Chronometer certification (not knowing if it means the same thing). The engravings on the back are really nice and the little arrow on the dial - symbol of the British armies - reinforce its unique, different and exceptional side - at least for me.

I bought it new for once just under 10,000 euros and it now costs 11,000, a nice increase... I hesitated at the time because I found it a bit expensive and I wasn't sure I would buy it at 11,000 🧐

In any case, it's a watch that I wear with great pleasure whatever the conditions and my activity... A versatile watch - certainly not more discreet! - with a bit of projection on the wrist of Daniel Craig and No Time To Die, without a doubt, the best James Bond of recent years...

A titanic James Bond

I like the simplicity of this Omega Seamaster 300. Inspired by the very first Seamaster 300 launched in 1957 - reference CK2913 if my humble research is correct - this Omega combines many qualities, at least those that interest me. A very unique look, associated with the history of the brand and indirectly with that of the most famous secret agent. 

I bought it second-hand on Chrono24 looking for the Spectre version, but it was too expensive. After thinking about it, the simplicity of the dial showing only Seamaster and while having a bubble-shaped second hand convinced me. I received it with its steel bracelet that I immediately changed for a dark, black bracelet that enhances the dial. The steel bracelet is very well finished but too flashy with the mirror-polished outer part. 

Nothing to say about the precision and decoration of the movement with a very open case back allowing you to admire the caliber in all its animation. Thanks Omega 🙏

The Spectre's Spectre

Here is my daily, the Tudor Black Bay 58 black and gilt dial (or gold depending on the person). Its charm was evident from its launch, just from the photos. I was lucky enough to be able to try it quickly without being able to buy it. This forced me to think in spite of myself and to tell myself more than ever that I was going to buy it according to the availability of the time! A few weeks after its launch I went to buy it during a weekend in Paris at Bucherer near the Place de l'Opéra.

After more than 3 years on the wrist, I can only say that it perfectly fulfills its mission of a watch without headaches, easy to wear, neither too small, nor too big, nor too much of anything else. A discreet watch all in all even if since then, it has come a long way at Tudor with more or less successful variations...

I am very happy to have bought it at the time significantly cheaper than the 3950 euros currently asked! Small digression, the Tudor Black 54 catches my eye but isn't the characteristic of a daily to be the only one 🤔

My daily for several years 😎

A neo-vintage look for this chronograph for less than €400! A very nice shop in the heart of Paris for an impulse purchase that I don't regret. A watch with a mecaquartz movement, combining mechanics and quartz, which is expanding my collection!

We are certainly not in the dimension of Rolex or Omega but rather in the desire to treat yourself at a good price for a young French brand that is constantly reinventing itself. With the Awake Concept, this is my 2nd French watch, a sign that young people are mobilizing to offer other paths in watchmaking with a more humble and above all more economical approach.

This is also my 1st chronograph... A way to test this type of watch at a lower price and I must admit that the diversity of information specified on the dial brings this Charlie to life. Its price at €375 exactly makes me say that Japanese watches like Seiko or Orient - like my Prospex Bleue - no longer have the exclusivity of nice, different and accessible watches from a price point of view. Bravo Charlie from this point of view!

Finally, I chose the sand-colored dial with the fabric strap of the same color for the discretion of the whole... and maybe I should have also taken the steel strap for its touch of originality?

Falling for something

I present to you my "little" Seiko Prospex integrated into the "Save the Ocean" limited series. As with the purchase of the Awake Concept La Bleue, I am attentive to the commitments made by the Seiko brand and I hope they keep them! This Seiko Prospex offers a blue dial going from ocean blue to black... reminding me of the gradient of the Rolex Sea-Dweller Deepsea James Cameron! The comparison stops there as this Seiko offers a fantastic quality-price ratio!

Less than €500 for a watch with Seiko quality and water-resistant to 200 meters! Its silicone strap is super comfortable and the readability is fantastic, especially with the Lumibrite treatment in the dark. It is clear that it is a very pleasant watch to wear daily because it is very robust and almost ordinary if we compare it to the Rolex Explorer II.

Morality, it's my favorite watch whenever I do a physical or technical activity like going fishing on a boat... another way to enjoy the ocean 😎

Another beautiful blue

I am the happy owner of this Rolex Explorer 2 black dial. I bought it decades ago and it is my only Rolex. Even then I was interested in the brand's products, looking for a watch with punch but not known or identifiable anymore.

I chose this little-known Rolex, little used in the brand's communication. Bought new in a Rolex boutique in the Paris region, it has many qualities, robustness, readability of the dial and a non-flashy style than the current Rolexes which shine a little too much for my taste.

I would like to treat myself - if I could afford it - to a Rolex Daytona, but the mirror-polished Oyster bracelet very different from that of my Explorer makes it prohibitive. And then, the evolution of the market, the success of Rolex, the impossibility of buying a new one, made me turn away from the brand in favor of more discreet or unknown brands... all in all the continuation of what made me come to this Explorer 2

Thanks for reading me 👍

Accomplice

I discovered this brand on the Dialicious channel… Not a fan at first of the overly aggressive approach in terms of communication, I let myself get carried away by the ecological message on the drama of plastic in the oceans. You just have to zap from time to time to see images as horrible as they are desperate. What can we say about this Awake Concept La Bleue? Simply that it uses - I think - on purpose an ultra-recognizable design, notably from the Rolex Submariner, to make us think about the need to recycle plastic and therefore produce less of it! The whole point of this watch lies in the message it conveys and to which I contribute by having bought it. The paradox of an all-plastic watch - a piece of crap for many watch lovers - is fascinating in many ways. A watch measures the passage of time and unfortunately, on the scale of plastic, time passes very, very, very slowly…

Plastic is dramatic

<p dir="ltr">Founded in <strong>1848</strong>, <strong>Omega</strong> is one of the oldest and most respected brand in the industry. The story of Omega is punctuated by innovations, technological achievements and a constant quest for precision. Steeped in exploration and adventure and closely associated with the conquest of the Moon, the brand has left an indelible mark on global watchmaking.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">History of the Omega brand</h2>
<p dir="ltr">In La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, a young man named Louis Brandt opened a watch assembly workshop. Using parts from various local artisans, he builds and sells his watches throughout Europe. These first watches simply bore his name, but it was the beginning of what would become a global brand. After his death in 1879, his sons took over the business and introduced revolutionary manufacturing techniques. In 1894, <strong>a new caliber for pocket watches was introduced, named "Omega"</strong>, symbolizing the ultimate achievement in watchmaking. It was so successful that the company would later adopt the name as a brand.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">The conquest of precision (1900-1940)</h3>
<p dir="ltr">The 20th century saw Omega rise as a dominant force in the field of watchmaking precision. In 1931, Omega watches won all the prizes during chronometry tests at the Geneva Observatory. This quest for precision led the brand to be chosen as <strong>official timekeeper of the Olympic Games from 1932</strong>, a title it still holds today.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Innovations et exploits (1940-1970)</h3>
<p dir="ltr">During and after World War II, Omega supplied watches to the British armed forces, cementing its reputation for reliability and durability. It was also at this time that the Seamaster was launched, a waterproof watch designed to withstand the most difficult conditions.</p>
<p dir="ltr">These thirty glorious years saw the launch of the Omega Seamaster in 1948 and the Omega Constellation in 1952. But it was the Speedmaster, introduced in 1957, which stood out the most. In 1965, <strong>it was officially chosen by NASA to accompany astronauts on space missions</strong>, and in 1969, it became the first watch worn on the moon, earning the nickname "Moonwatch".</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">The dark years (1970-2000)</h3>
<p dir="ltr">Faced with the rise of Japanese quartz watches, Omega is fighting to maintain its position. The brand launches <strong>its own quartz watch, the "Marine Chronometer"</strong>, which is recognized as one of the most precise quartz watches ever produced. Omega, like the entire Swiss watch industry, is very impacted by this new competition from Japan and must significantly reduce its workforce.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The 90s saw a resurgence of interest in luxury mechanical watches, and Omega, with its classic models and innovations, such as the co-axial movement, remained at the forefront.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">The new millennium (2000 to the present)</h3>
<p dir="ltr">The 21st century sees Omega go from strength to strength with famous collaborations and ambassadors, such as James Bond and actor Daniel Craig. Innovative technologies, such as movements resistant to magnetic fields and the use of materials such as ceramic, demonstrate the brand's desire to combine tradition and modernity.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">What are the main models of the Omega brand?</h2>
<h3 dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/omega/speedmaster">Omega Speedmaster</a></h3>
<p dir="ltr">The Omega Speedmaster collection is one of the most iconic and recognized watch ranges in the world. Launched in 1957, the Speedmaster was initially designed to meet the needs of motorsport professionals, with its distinctive tachometer for measuring speed.</p>
<p dir="ltr">However, it is best known for its role in space exploration. In 1965, after rigorous testing, NASA selected the Speedmaster as its official watch for all manned missions. It was worn during the first lunar landing in 1969 by astronaut Buzz Aldrin and has since been nicknamed "<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/omega/speedmaster_moonwatch">Moonwatch</a>".</p>
<p dir="ltr">Aside from its space pedigree, the Speedmaster is also appreciated for its timeless design and robust mechanics. Over the years, Omega has introduced many variations of the Speedmaster such as the Omega Speedmaster Mark II, Mark III or Omega Speedmaster 38. It is often considered a must-have watch for collectors and watch enthusiasts.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/omega/seamaster">Omega Seamaster</a></h3>
<p dir="ltr">The Omega Seamaster collection, introduced in 1948, is one of the oldest and most popular luxury watches. Originally designed as a dive watch, it combines robust functionality with elegant design. <strong>Water resistance and durability have been key features</strong> of the Seamaster from its inception. Over time, this collection has evolved, encompassing a diverse range of models from professional diving watches to sophisticated pieces suitable for formal occasions.</p>
<p dir="ltr">A notable turning point for the Seamaster was its association with James Bond. Since 1995, with the film "GoldenEye", James Bond has worn a Seamaster in almost all of his films, cementing his status as a cultural icon.&nbsp;</p>
<p dir="ltr">The different variants, such as<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/omega/seamaster_300m"> Seamaster Diver 300M</a>, the Aqua Terra or the Planet Ocean or the PLOPROF show the adaptability of the collection to various needs and aesthetic preferences. Each watch is a reflection of Omega's watchmaking expertise and commitment to quality and innovation.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/omega/seamaster_planet_ocean_600m_co-axial_master_chronometer">Omega Planet Ocean</a></h3>
<p dir="ltr">The Seamaster Planet Ocean collection, first introduced in 2005, is a modern homage to Omega's rich maritime heritage. These watches are true diving instruments, offering water resistance of up to 60 ATM. They often feature ceramic bezels, dials with luminescent indexes, and a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.&nbsp;</p>
<h3 dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/omega/seamaster_aqua_terra">Omega Aqua Terra</a></h3>
<p dir="ltr">The Seamaster Aqua Terra is another illustrious member of the Seamaster family, launched in the early 2000s. With its aesthetic inspired by the wooden decks of luxury yachts, the Aqua Terra is a perfect mix between a dive watch and a dress watch. It is water resistant to 150 meters and is equally suited to a day at the office or a trip to the sea. The Aqua Terra has also been a showcase for some of Omega's most recent innovations, including co-axial movement and improved resistance to magnetic fields, making these watches some of the most reliable and precise timepieces available.</p>
<p dir="ltr">These two models, like the previous ones, reflect Omega's ongoing commitment to combining technical innovation with timeless design. They embody all the diversity of the Seamaster collection.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/omega/constellation">Omega Constellation</a></h3>
<p dir="ltr">The Omega Constellation collection, introduced in 1952, is the <strong>symbol of excellence in watchmaking and design</strong>. Known for its timeless elegance, the Constellation is a demonstration of Omega's expertise in precision and craftsmanship. Distinctive for its unique claws on the case, which were originally intended to ensure the water resistance of the watch, it has become one of the characteristic features of the Constellation design.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Over time, Omega has continued to innovate within this collection, introducing new movements, designs and materials, while maintaining the distinctive character and elegance of the Constellation. The range has branched out to include models for men and women, offering a variety of sizes, dials and straps.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/omega/de_ville">Omega De Ville</a></h3>
<p dir="ltr">The <strong>Omega De Ville collection is a reflection of refinement and urban elegance</strong> within Omega's extensive portfolio. Introduced in the 1960s, the De Ville was created as a more dressy and contemporary line, distinguishing itself from the brand's sports and diving watches.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Since its beginnings, the De Ville has been synonymous with sophistication and technical innovation. While preserving a classic design, it has often been the testing ground for Omega's new watchmaking technologies, such as reducing the complexity of movement components or the introduction of Co-Axial movements.&nbsp;With its clean lines and minimalist aesthetic, the De Ville collection is perfect for a professional setting or formal occasions. It includes several sub-collections, including the famous Hour Vision, Ladymatic and Tresor, each bringing its own touch of distinction.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Sophistication and simplicity. Designed for those who appreciate understated luxury, the De Ville is elegant while being technically impressive. Co-Axial movements and varied designs, ranging from simple models to complications like the tourbillon.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/omega/geneve">Omega Geneva</a></h3>
<p dir="ltr">In the 1950s and into the 1970s, the name &ldquo;Geneva&rdquo; was associated with the Omega watch line intended <strong>to honor the birthplace of Swiss watchmaking, Geneva</strong>. This range was meant to reflect the high quality standards for which the city was known. The Geneva model was finally integrated into the DeVille collection. Featuring a sober and elegant design, the Omega Gen&egrave;ve was appreciated for its versatility, being both a dress watch and suitable for everyday use and positioned at that time as an entry-level Omega.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/omega/dynamic">Omega Dynamic</a></h3>
<p dir="ltr">First launched in 1967, the Omega Dynamic is a distinctive model with a very '70s design. Initially designed as a watch for the younger generation, it had an elliptical case shape and colorful dials, reflecting the bold aesthetic of the era. Later, in the 1990s, the Dynamic was relaunched with a very different design inspired by pilot watches, under the name Omega Dynamic III.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Omega Seamaster Omegamatic</h3>
<p dir="ltr">Combining the precision of quartz with the autonomy of an automatic watch, the Omegamatic, launched in the 1990s, is a hybrid auto-quartz watch. It uses a rotor, similar to that of automatic watches, to charge a battery which powers a quartz movement, thus providing exceptional precision while retaining certain mechanical elements.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Omega Polaris</h3>
<p dir="ltr">Introduced in the 1980s, the Omega Polaris collection is remarkable for its unique design combining stainless steel and gold, often in a surprising so-called "two-tone" construction. These watches were equipped with quartz movements and equipped with complications, such as alarms or chronographs Their geometric aesthetic and multi-layered design made them immediately recognizable and accessible at low prices on the vintage market.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Each of these models brings a unique touch to the rich history of the Omega house, demonstrating its ability to innovate and adapt to changing watchmaking trends while remaining true to its roots of quality and precision.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">How much does an Omega watch cost?</h2>
<p dir="ltr">Prices for Omega watches change every year, but <strong>most Omega models cost between $3,500 and $40,000</strong>. An Omega De Ville Prestige Co-Axial Chronometer costs $3,500 while an Omega Speedmaster in yellow gold Sedna costs $45,800. The second-hand market is also an opportunity to look at buying an Omega potentially cheaper than new.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">Omega: Eclectic models for all tastes&nbsp;</h2>
<p dir="ltr">The story of Omega is one of a relentless quest for precision, innovation and excellence. From its humble beginnings in a small Swiss workshop to its presence on the moon, in the depths of the ocean and on the Olympic slopes, <strong>Omega has demonstrated its watchmaking mastery time</strong> and again. As a pioneer, innovator and explorer, Omega continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in the world of luxury watchmaking. Omega stands out for its fusion of styles, performance and history. Whether exploring the depths of the ocean, timing Olympic athletes, or accompanying astronauts into space, Omega has proven its excellence time and time again.</p>

Being passionate about James Bond I chose this watch for its diameter of 41mm, its thickness of 11mmm and its magnificent caliber 1120--> ETA 2892 ultra reliable and magnificently decorated !!!!
By buying this watch I also wanted to mark my fiftieth birthday with a great timeless classic !!!


007's Seamaster

An exceptional watch; it's hard to be unfaithful to it... every morning, when I have to choose which watch will accompany my day, I let myself go towards it, as if it were the first time I'm wearing it. Good size, very precise, elegant, in short it's perfect. Very comfortable and with a design that is as refined as it is elegant, the time is very readable. Each hand is different and adds emotion to this exceptional timepiece.

Fine watchmaking at the service of James Bond!

Being a diver and wanting to acquire a diver's watch, I naturally turned to the emblematic models of several brands. Having bought it without trying it on, I was initially surprised and in doubt as to its diameter (36), it is ultimately the watch that I wear most often.

An experience in its own right

Being a diver and wanting to acquire a diver's watch, I naturally turned to the emblematic models of several brands. Omega being a watch manufacturer that interested me a lot, I decided to go for a Seamaster, without any particular link with James Bond. Having bought it without trying it, I was at first surprised and in doubt about its diameter (36), it is ultimately the watch that I wear most often.

A classic but original timepiece

Watch given to me by my wife for the birth of our son in 2008.

I had hesitated for a long time with the blue version and since my father-in-law had it I didn't particularly want to have the same one as him, but I was especially afraid of getting tired of it, regretfully because it's still not the same as James Bond's.

It's really beautiful, I find it very versatile both in sports mode and well dressed for an event, a very comfortable, reliable and functional chic sports model.

I wear it quite often because it's a perfect diver, quite thin because it's a quartz version, top lume, superb wavy dial, domed sapphire and approved by Bond.



The 007 watch in black version

It was its vintage side that caught my attention. A legendary diver that fits perfectly into the lineage of the 1957 model but with the advantages of a modern watch thanks to its co-axial caliber. At first glance it seems simple, refined, ... Looking more closely we discover fun details like the Lollipop second hand and the "sandwich" dial. I also appreciate its bracelet which is refined to end up with a very practical clasp with its possibility of quick adjustment. This watch offers everything: a perfect finish, a very practical side thanks to its waterproofness and its readability day and night, a certain elegance and discretion allowing it to be worn on any occasion. If my collection had to include only one watch, it would be this one!

A stunning watch
