    That’s only under artificial lighting. Under natural light it’s way brighter (as seen in my previous pictures). OB/AD lighting is not ideal to sell that watch :rolleyes:

    I like the watch, the initial price does not, if I get a 25% discount I will buy it

    Definitely fair enough. Probably still not for me however.

    Put it today on a Strap from the Minimalist Series from The Watch Steward. Very comfortable and lightweight due to titanium and the super adjustable strap.

    Decided to make my own out of pieces I had, and saved myself $10k

    I think the Seamaster in titanium is a great option, but I wish this was a regular production piece without the fauxtina and fake military marking. I'm all for a watch with military markings, but those are for the people who earned it.

    Technically the markings are issued, not earned. But even if they were earned, how do you feel about people buying and wearing previously-issued military watches? There are plenty of people out there with WWWs or MilSubs / SM300s who never served....

    To each their own. I served, so I might have a different perspective. I do understand the allure of collecting military watches, even if you haven't served, but putting them on there for movie purposes... Again, I really like a lot of aspects of the design of the Bond Seamaster but I personally would love to see one in ti without the Bond/military markings.

    I have one and I really like it, but I agree with @Ottsby, I would also prefer it without military/Bond markings, but rather with military-type sword hands like in e.g. on Seamaster 2231.50.00. However they have the 210.92.44.20.01.001 for the ones which don't like beige lume and want more matte dial without date (for me 43mm a bit big and also I prefer Ti agains ceramics).

    I'm not saying I love the military-style markings (I think they're a bit ridiculous) but they're also not so intrusive as to ruin the entire watch for me.

    Where I do draw the line though is the ribbon that came with the previous Commander Watch. Ribbons are earned, and I think that was just dumb.

    I've never seen Bond wearing a Speedmaster, but it happened in SNL now:

    Ummm.... Nothing new there. Where have you been? He's been wearing various Omega models over the years especially since becoming Omega ambassador. Plus he had input in the making of that Bond watch, so why wouldn't he wear it?

    My post was about how Omega made a post on Instagram with faked surprise over Daniel Craig was sighted wearing the Bond Seamaster. The post said: CELEBRITY SPOTTED the New Seamaster 300 and then a photo of DC at some show making it look like they randomly caught a photoof him wearing one of their watches.

    So, I have been here all along and my post was a rant aimed at Omega. Has been also been wearing Omega before he became an ambassador?
