Excellent watch, but the 2531.80 isn't the GoldenEye. The quartz 2541.80 was used in GoldenEye, and then the mechanical 2531.80 was used in Tomorrow Never Dies, The World Is Not Enough and Die Another Day. I've seen some people refer to both references as Brosnan watches.

I like it on the milanese btw.

Touche, it was in the subsequent films but not GoldenEye. Went for the mechanical when I bought it. Loved the OEM milanese bracelet, but was in between sizes so recently sold it to another forum member. Ordered a shark mesh bracelet for the similar look but better fit.

Yeah I faced a similar tough choice many years ago. I decided to go for the quartz, because GoldenEye is my favourite Bond movie and I figured I'll have other mechanical watches, but I'd like to have one quartz pick it up and go/beater watch, and I can't think of a single other quartz I'd ever rather own.

The OEM milanese looks really sleek, and your watch looks mint. The current gen milanese's thick clasp and fit issues for some people puts me off. I wear mine on current gen blue rubber now and absolutely love it. But I also found the fit and comfort of the OEM Bond bracelet to be fantastic too.

I like that this is like the NTTD with callbacks to the GoldenEye blue waves and Spectre lollipop, has an animated caseback and that it is inconspicuously a Bond watch from the front.

Hello everybody. I’m new to the forum. I’ve got a semi old Seamaster and it’s been spruced up a bit with one of the summer blue straps. Ref 2255.80. The bracelet now languishes in the basement of my watch box with several others…while slowly going insane from the incoherent chatter….
