A Review: Omega Seamaster 300M “James Bond” Edition Watch

James_Bond_2220.80.00
Ever since the Omega Seamaster 300M shot onto the movie screens in James Bond: Golden Eye, there was unerring feeling that the Swiss watchmakers were going to grab this opportunity with both hands.

And boy, did they deliver! Replacing the Rolex Submariner and debuting in 1995 alongside the successful James Bond franchise, the Omega Seamaster 300M “James Bond” edition, has become a household name with its handsome blue bezel and dial and smooth, clean features. Complete with its deep-water diving capabilities and helium escape valve, I sense that even the most hardcore of the Rolex faithful are turning their heads in curiosity.

The Omega Seamaster 300M “James Bond” edition, or more commonly known just as the “Bond Watch,” represents all that is expected from this luxury Swiss watchmaker. Understated, yet refined is how I’d describe it. However, this luxury sports watch does not shy from the limelight with its unmistakable blue dial and Omega insignia clear for those lay-people to envy and those enthusiasts to appreciate. Expertly protected with sapphire diamond crystal and durable stainless bracelet and case, this watch was meant for the ages. A far cry from the large, obnoxious, diamond-encrusted watches that litter the market these days and bought by tasteless imbeciles.

Unlike Miss Teen USA South Carolina contestant Lauren Upton (for those who don’t know what I’m talking about, YouTube her), this watch isn’t just a pretty face! The heartbeat of this watch is an articulate, in-house, Omega 2500 caliber automatic movement, which has been certified as a chronometer by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Control). Don’t ask me what it involves, but this movement has been praised for it’s uncompromising accuracy. For those who value and appreciate the beauty of mechanical movements, this Bond watch suits the bill.

Whether you are in a boardroom with important executives, deep sea diving off the reefs of the Caribbean, attending cocktail parties (in which you inadvertently order a vodka Martini, shaken not stirred), or just driving to the shops, this watch will get you that one step closer to becoming that man of mystery, women-eater, villain killer, Bond, James Bond.
