Omega James Bond 007 Watches

Daniel Craig 007 keeping the tradition alive

Since then an Omega has been the go to timepiece of Mr Bond. The current 007, Daniel Craig, is a massive Omega fan, being much involved in the design of the latest watch. The Omega Bond watches cover several models including the Seamaster Diver 300m, the Omega Planet Ocean and now, thanks to Mr Daniel Craig, the classic Omega Seamaster 300. He has worn an Omega Bond watch in the following movies; Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace, Skyfall and Spectre

What to pay for a pre-owned Bond watch

Sellers sometimes refer to the regular Omega Seamaster Diver 300m as a “James Bond watch” as it happens to be like the one 007 wore in a movie. That’s true, he doesn’t wear one with “007” on the dial, but don’t pay more than you should for a standard model. The special Bond watches bear the 007 logo and other subtle Bond’esque touches. For example the 2537.80.00 from 2002 (Pierce Brosnan in “Die Another Day” – a fairly regular Diver 300m with a subtle 007 above the 6 o’clock and 007 etched on the caseback. This watch will sell for somewhere between £2,800 and £3,500.

Try to buy a “full set” with box & papers

A newer example such as the 210.22.42.20.01.004 from 2019 (limited to 7,007 models – celebrating the 50th anniversary of the film “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service“) can fetch as much as £8K.. If you’re very lucky you might find one for £5K. My personal favourite is the Omega Commander’s watch with it’s distinctive white dial and red, white & blue bezel / hands (212.32.41.20.04.001). We’ve not seen a full set version of this watch sell for less than £4,000 – expect to pay in the region of £4,500+. When purchasing a pre-owned Bond watch aim for a full set, box, papers, cards of authenticity and receipts. This will greatly affect it’s resale value, the more complete the set, the better it will hold it’s value.
