But I can't get both. Let's not focus on one being overpriced like many say.

I love the new No time to die SMP. It has grown on me so much and every time I see it in pictures, I want it more.

On the flip side though, i'm also in love with the Speedmaster DSOTM Apollo 8.

Being that not only am I a huge Bond fan, I also love the Space history.

Don't know which to go for.

 

Did you see them in person yet?

 

I have seen and tried on the Apollo 8 in person last year but wasn't ready to buy. The Bond SMP, I have not yet.

 

I think you will need to find an OB and see them side by side to make a decision, Moonraker or 007

 

An AD with both in stock at the same time, haha, sounds impossible!

 

One can but try... that's why I suggested an OB rather than an AD if you have one local as they may have both.

I consider myself lucky as I came across a grail purely by accident, the SS A11 50th when querying my AD about the standard Speedy as it had just arrived but the NTTD piece really sings to me also

Now lock down is easing in the UK, I really need to get my act together and off load some cars to free up some much needed funds for some pieces

 

yeah I go to the OB and have never seen the bond one.

 

Nice taste I like both as well. Already own the Apollo 8 and like you haven’t seen the bond SMP in person.
I ordered the Apollo 8 unseen, like many and was certainly not disappointed. One of the best bang for buck out there imo as I’d always wanted a ceramic being a speedmaster was a bonus, and this one is a wow speedmaster, I’ll be surprised if it isn’t a cult collectible someday.

Bond I’m guessing is lightweight which I think is excellent in a SMP, also has everything going for it..........
Oh wait I realize I’m no help here lol I’d be stuck in the same dilemma if I had to choose lol

 

Lmao, looks like I’m buying none of them if I can’t decide!

 

Clearly you need a 2254.50.00...

 

Is Corona starting to get to us? It seems our thread titles get dangerously close to romance novels gone bad...

Along that line, you should definitely see both of them in person again, but with a strict time limit. Maybe have a friend call you after a set time, lest you make some rash decision. Leave your credit card at home.

 

I owned it, it was my first Omega, sold it years ago though.

 

Either choice I don’t think you’ll ever be disappointed.....coin flip

 

I purchased the Apollo8 and I think its an amazing watch its also quite thin and sits comfortably on the wrist.

The NTD Bond, I tried on recently and left me disappointed. Even though the dial looks great, the bezels felt very dishy and its priced considerably above other seamasters.

You will need to try on both, but the DSOM is my pick.

 

I'm biased, because I have the Apollo 8, but that detail, the skeletonised movement etc.

 

DSOTM? Die some other time man!

 

All things considered I would probably go with the DSOTM.

 

Voting DSOTM great presence
