The title for the new James Bond film has been announced, No Time To Die, I was wondering which Omega watch do OF members think will form the basis of any Limited Edition watch release? My guess would be a Planet Ocean.
Why is that ? When they have such a huge and expensive platform as a James Bond blockbuster I would think they’d want to launch a whole new product or line of product, like “Spectre”? Of course the problem making it hard to guess is that James Bond’s historical watch is not an Omega, just like his car is not a BMW. Next thing you know he’ll be drinking Perrier.
Bond has been wearing Omega for the last 20+ years and 8 movies. I think that's long enough association where people think James Bond and Omega.
Bond will wear a Casio in the next film to promote austerity, drive a Prius for environmental awareness, and treat women with respect and abstain from all unwanted advances or innuendo.
Casio... yea right. It's going to be an Apple watch to be in line with all of the millennials and whatever the next generation is called.
No time to die is a metaphor for social and environmental consciousness. Bond will be wearing hemp clothing and recycled rubber shoes, eat farm to table foods and only use rubber bullets as to not kill anyone. I plan to sleep through the whole movie when I finally comes out on Netflix.
I can’t wait for “It’s Finally Time to Die” because nothing is more tedious than a Bond movie. Except the Super Bowl, perhaps.
.. and "Tomorrow Never Dies" ... and the titles with the word "Kill". All these titles are starting to blur. Much simpler when they had titles like Dr No, Goldfinger, Thunderball, Octopussy (one that could never be repeated).
How about Dr Goldball , Nofinger and Thunderpussy? PS I seem to remember Bond's watch being an Omega Seamaster in one of the original novels.
