·If it is titanium and a limited edition does everyone think it could be quite expensive?

·Considering the steel 007 watch (with a little gold) that just got released went for $6500, I would expect a pretty hefty price for a titanium watch. My guess is around $9000.

·They got the barrel rifling the opposite way on the dial.

·EDIT: Actually, no they didn't. Find an image of the rifling from one of the recent opening scenes, from a Craig Bond movie. It's oriented the same as on the watch. Didn't bother checking the history of that opening scene, maybe it changed at some point.
Watch dial has the bullet spinning to the right - but the Bond image has the bullet spinning to the left.

That's so weird - where did the odd spiral logo come from? It was here in this thread earlier and that's what I was using as reference.

That is very impressive, both the watch and the service as my AD advised that stock would not be available until November. Nicely done and congratulations on the new watch, enjoy and wear in good health.

·You know, I don’t think that this watch is all that bad. It does have a rather attractive face, like any potential “new” love. It just depends I guess on the details. Ok...Omega goofed up in describing the barrel twist at being 9mm. And the directional thing. They are watch makers...Not Gunsmiths after all.
Any Bond fan will tell you that the Walther is I think 7.65 mm. Ok wrong gun.
I also heard the 12 th hour marker - described as a fugitive from a “Mechano Set”.
Then you either are a fan of the coat of arms on the rear face...
or not. Blonde - Brunette or well, You know. Yep, it could be different in several ways
But I do think in the end - it’s another Bond Girl...Pretty in its own way.
You know though I kinda like her...maybe not quite enough yet to be “steady”.
Let’s see what the movie version is all about. Hmmm...

·Maybe in this day and age, rifling shouldn't appear on a watch dial...just my .02.
I can't see James Bond killing villains with just harsh language.
It looks a lot better in the flesh and the gun barrel effect is not as noticeable as it is in the stock photos.

·Have you purchased it or were you just trying it on
Just popped it on during a visit to the OB. I quite liked it taken on it's own, but I would like to see the titanium version before making any decisions.

I really want to like this, but the dial and caseback are just too busy!

·In reality the watch isn’t to busy.
A freind of mine who is an omega seamaster owner noticed me wearing the watch but had to have a second take to notice it’s different detailing compare to his.
Also the case back is never seen when you wear it.
Close up photography isn’t the same as seeing it in the flesh.
I accept some like it and some don’t but unless you see it for real it’s best to reserve judgment.

·I think omega nailed it with this watch soon as i look at it it feels like it’s from the sixties and it does prompt me to think of 007.
I’d say it reminds me of a lot of bond movies not just specific to one .
