I know there was a thread a short while ago on a new AT 'Spectre' limited edition. Over at AJB007 (fantastic Bond fan forum for those interested) they are pretty sure Craig is wearing the new/old SM300 on a NATO in the latter part of the new film... These pictures come from there...
Wow!! I called it when it came out last summer, first post I made was "I wonder if this will be the new Bond watch. Good move and very interesting to go NATO as well. Old School
Daniel Craig is better suited to the Seamaster Pro / AT38.5 / SM300 size than the PO size as like most actors he's smaller than you expect.
I'm sure Omega is hoping for a spike in OEM NATO strap sales. I haven't handled one in person, but they look very nice and well made.
They are, but at the price of an alligator strap. I have a large collection of Natos that combined cost me less than an oem strap
The OEM strap prices are out of this world. My guy at the Omega Boutique is Dallas showed me one and told me how much he would love to sell it to me. I could of bought 15 good nato's for the same price!
I'd definitely rather spend the money on a Jean Paul Menicucci leather strap any day, but I'm sure some would see the price of the OEM nato a very small add-on when purchasing a $5000+ watch. Tudor canvas straps are very expensive as well. I'll take my Crown and Buckle or Phoenix natos all day long.
Awesome watch on a NATO.. and for Mr. Bond! Perhaps also a tip of the hat to Connery's 6538 on nylon..?
