Since then, Omega has become an integral part of the Bond narrative, with each film showcasing a meticulously chosen timepiece that reflects both the character’s sophisticated style and the demands of his thrilling missions. This collaboration has not only elevated Omega’s brand image but also solidified its place in cinematic history.

Case, Bezel, and Dial
Designed for style and adventure, the watch boasts a 42mm stainless steel case, paired with a unidirectional rotating bezel with a striking blue ceramic insert and a crisp white enamel diving scale for precise timing. A screw-in crown and helium escape valve, essential for saturation diving, further emphasize its functionality.
The dial of this special edition Seamaster is a captivating blue oxalic anodized aluminum, laser-engraved with a wave pattern reminiscent of the model worn by James Bond in GoldenEye.
This nod to Bond’s cinematic history is further amplified by the replacement of the traditional diving scale triangle at 12 o’clock with a commemorative “60,” celebrating 60 years of 007 on screen. The hands and indices are coated with Super-LumiNova for exceptional legibility in all lighting conditions.
Perhaps the most captivating feature of this reference is its animated caseback. Through the sapphire crystal, a mesmerizing sequence plays out, depicting the iconic Bond opening credits. 007’s silhouette appears against a backdrop of a spinning gun barrel, creating a dynamic and engaging tribute to the franchise’s legacy.
