For me, it is not only the best Bond Watch but also the first Diver 300M that I really like. The normal ones are to shiny for me and the bracelet was not my thing.

Congrats!!! Great pic!!! What was your package like? Could you share a pic please? That I was a little surprised that it came only with this simple black box, inside the leathercase without tools and such. I started to think because from the Watch Advisor video you can see in the beginning quite a different box for this Seamaster:

I got mine on wednesday 馃憤
I was looking at the Bond watches yesterday with a friend. Least favorite Bond watch is the PO from Quantum of Solace. The movie title is etched into the crystal. No thank you!
As far as my favorite, it's hard to go wrong with the original Bond Omega.
You do realise that the PO you've shown is a limited edition and wasn't worn by Bond in Quantum right?
He wore the PO 2201.50 in Quantum.... As you can see, no movie title written on the crystal.
Pics&videos... you always have to experience the watch yourself to know if it is for you. Many of these hype-watch... it鈥檚 crazy: people are forced to buy watches without seeing them.. for example the Daytona: stunning watch (pics&videos), great history, cult followers鈥攂ut when I personallly experienced the watch: too tiny for me. To use the complication: to open the screws was irritating. Very hard to read... conclusion: not for me. You gotta see the watch before buying.
As a big Bond fan I do love a Bond watch. I have a 2226.80.00 'gun barrel' variant of the blue wave SMP Co-axial from 2008 (2006 model).
Wondering if Bond will wear another, as yet unpublicised, model in addition to the new SMP-Ti, in 'No Time To Die'.
In Skyfall and SPECTRE the PO and 300m Diver were both marketed prior to release, yet both also featured the lesser publicised 39mm and then 41mm blue Aqua Terras (8500), respectively. Maybe another AT, or even a Railmaster or DeVille to compliment his go-to action SMP?
Can't wait.
When it comes to the PO, the best Bond PO would be that one from Quantum of Solace. Classic piece now and not as thick as the 8500 PO worn in Skyfall. Its rightly sized at 42mm too when compared to the bigger, bulkier 45.5mm one on rubber strap in Casino Royale. Plus he wore that one watch throughout the entire movie, which is a rarity since all of Craig's Bond movies have him wear more than one Omega, all except Quantum of Solace.
