    End to end including the dvd extras, all in the hope of a clear shot of the blue teak dial "Skyfall" AT.

    Early in the film where our intrepid hero is driving a digger on a train we get several long wrist shots but I couldn't say "there's an AT!!" .

    Throughout the film I got sense that Bond and Moneypenny were possibly wearing something similar casewise but could I trust anything valuable to say i saw a particular watch make or model? Nope. Not at all.

    Quite disappointed to the extent of checking the dvd sleeve for evidence that "this dvd is intended for use where there may be gullible people watching and all brand identification has been digitally edited out. Harrumph!

    Just watch The American with Clooney. Relative to what you're saying about Skyfall, it's like an Omega promotional video for the Speedy Pro.

    Haven't seen the film in a while, but I recall Bond wearing a Planet Ocean 8500 in the beginning. The 38mm blue AT was near the scene when M got into that oversized Jaguar, somewhere around the middle.

    I saw a screen shot of Bond wearing the skyfall when he went swimming in the hotel pool in China, before training in the underground MI-6 training and meeting Q in the museum. I am pretty sure the PO was worn at the beginning money penny accidentally shot him.

    In the beginning of the movie he wears a planet ocean and switches later in the film.

    @nurseford25 Nice screen grabs! I like how his eyes are the exact same color as the dial in the second shot.

    Roger Deakins' epic cinematography did wonders to Skyfall. Hope he gets to film the next one again. And I wish Omega would pair the PO and the AT again. Here's my Skyfall couple (albeit with orange arabics on the PO).

    Internets (aka Bond Lifestyle) says Eve wears a SM Aqua Terra in Skyfall. Ref 231.10.30.20.06.001

    I always thought it was humorous for her to attempt that long train shot with a short barrel CQB rifle, oh the joys of movie making.

    M told her to take the shot. She was just following orders. ‍♂️

    She was never going to swinging a long barrelled 338LapMag round though.
