This is one of the reasons i was drawn to this particular model. Unfortunatly i later fell for the sword hands models of the same and never looked back. Another drawback was the luminova dots that were a little too rolexiish  for my taste. If i was rich enough i'd have the black, the blue and the Bond as a trio i could rotate from day to day. I love the seamaster pro. Enough said. Great review.  |

But yea, if money was no object I'd probably have one of every Seamaster! But that ain't gonna happen.... ;D ;D John |

John great job as usual. I was torn between the blk/blk seamaster,on the speedy bracelet and the bond seamaster. So I did what any rational person would do,I got both a few weeks apart.

Hey John,is there any difference to 007s Seamaster to the one the evil defector "Alec" (I think) has.Re comparison picture in the review.Besides the obvious thermo nuclear deployment button and twin overhead co axial escarpment wheels for secret spy stealth mode. |

I THINK (I've replayed the DVD on this part several times and I'm still not 100% sure) that Alec's watch has a black bezel and dial. It DOES have a black strap. As far as I know, Alex's black "Bond" Seamaster was created for the movie and doesn't actually exist. John |

One other question about the new engraving on the bottom of your watch.Is that through out the entire Omega range or just the Seamasters.  Aaron |

John You have got to hand it to the movie people for the detail that they put into their art.I only just noted that the second hands on the two watches are just about in sync. Cheers Aaron |

Love the review. Always look forward to your writings. I can't wait until you own your own watch magazine and
we all can come work for you. Just show me the broom and mop.
My two favorite Seamasters are the black face 2254.50.00 and your Electric Blue 2254.80.00.
