The Omega James Bond Watch From Goldeneye To Casino Royale And Quantum Of Solace Is A Cutting Edge High Class Timepiece

The Omega James Bond watch is really two different Omega Seamaster models depending upon which James Bond you prefer. In 1995 Pierce Brosnan brought the Omega Seamaster to wrist of James Bond in the movie Goldeneye. In 2006 Daniel Craig became the new James Bond in Casino Royale with a new Omega Seamaster on his wrist. For those true Bond enthusiasts, only the Omega James Bond watch will suffice.

Almost everyone has heard the phrase, “Bond, James Bond.” And who hasn’t enjoyed at least one of the Bond blockbuster movies throughout the decades? It seems that everyone has their opinion of which actor played the Bond character best. Some enjoyed Sean Connery as the ultimate, yet others prefer Roger Moore’s bond. Timothy Dalton took the Bond moniker for a short while and then Pierce Brosnan led James Bond into the new millennium. Finally, Daniel Craig has taken the reigns as the new Bond.

Each actor brought his own style and charm to the Bond character, but for the majority of his years, James Bond wore a Rolex Submariner. For thirty years, from the mid-sixties to the mid-nineties, James Bond wore a Rolex Submariner watch. Not until 1995, with a new Bond actor in place, did the Omega James Bond watch enter the scene.

In 1995 Pierce Brosnan’s Bond exploded onto movie theater screens sporting a mew, modern and elegant timepiece: the Omega Mens Seamaster 300M. With modern styling featuring stainless steel, a blue dialface instead of the more classic color choice of black, the new Omega James Bond watch proved that Brosnan’s Bond character was stylish as well as classic.

The new Omega James Bond watch was prominently featured in the movie Goldeneye, with a few brief moments in the beginning of the movie focused upon the change from the old Rolex Submariner to the new Omega Seamaster James Bond limited edition watch. Additionally, there were several TV commercials filmed to promote the new movie as well as the new Omega James Bond watch. To top it off, Goldeneye was released as a brand new video game for the Nintendo 64 game system, and the Omega James Bond watch is featured as a main part of the game.

Until this point in fashion history, Rolex had earned the title as the world’s most famous and most sought after timepiece. But with the new Omega James Bond watch being featured in a famous movie, video game, TV commercials and print ads, the days of the Rolex Submariner’s supremecy were coming to an end. Today, any Bond fan will tell you that you simply must own an Omega Seamaster 300M if you are at all serious as a James Bond fan.

Omega has since become one of the most popular watch brands in the world. This is partly because the Omega Seamaster and the Omega Speedmaster are suberbly manufactured timepieces, and partly because of so many famous celebrities wearing the Omega watches in public.

From world famous actress Nicole Kidman, to world-renowned Olympic athlete Michael Phelps, the Omega watch is well represented. Famous astronaut Buzz Aldrin and United States President John F. Kennedy were both well known for wearing their favorite Omega watch in public. With the release of Goldeneye in 1995, the Omega James Bond watch established Omega watches as the world’s premier timepiece.

However, in 2006 with the release of another blockbuster Bond movie and a new, younger, more muscular actor at the helm in Daniel Craig, Omega offered a style change for Mr. Bond. This time, the Omega James Bond watch would be an Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M.

The Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M returns Mr. Bond to a classic black-face dial with stainless steel case material all around. The Omega Seamaster is much more similar to the Rolex Submariner in many aspects such as the classic, conservative styling. Some Bond fans would argue that the ultimate Bond character is not complete without his Omega Seamaster watch and his trusty Walther PPK pistol – the two essential gadgets of any Bond movie.

No matter which Bond actor or movie you prefer, and whether your prefer the Omega Seamaster 300M or the Omega Planet Ocean 600M, there’s no denying that the Omega James Bond watch is certainly an elegant, stylish timepiece to be treasured and enjoyed for decades.
