Not many people know this, but James Bond holds the rank of Commander in the Royal Navy. What’s more, Bond’s title isn’t a cover or an honorarium, but – according to the novel ”From Russia With Love” – a reflection of his years of service during WWII.
The watch on offer here – the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M ‘Commander’s Watch’ Limited Edition – was inspired by this enigmatic piece of agent 007’s past. The Commander’s Watch Limited Edition is technically identical to other 300M Diver’s watches, sporting a 41mm stainless steel case and an in-house caliber 2507 movement with a co-axial escapement. The main difference, however, is the color scheme, which evokes the insignia of the British Royal Navy. The blue-&-red bezel is made out of ceramic, as is the stunning white dial, and features a Liquidmetal scale. The emblematic 007 logo can be seen on both the rotor and on the tail of the seconds hand, but other than that, the watch has no branding tying it to the British spy, which makes it all the more desirable for its understated finesse. Our offering is in superb condition with nothing worth mentioning (a few minor hairpins might exist – barely visible with a naked eye) and comes in a very full set of boxes and papers, which also includes an Omega spring bar tool and a blue-&-red Omega NATO strap.
The watch is covered by 1 year of limited warranty, starting on the date of purchase.
