Pretty cool... I can't believe they go for so much money just because it's the original watch worn in the Bond Series. :dontknow:

trivia:

when did bond start wearing the Omega?

and unimportant dress code fact...he's seen several times in a suit and tux wearing this watch...which...we ALL know you aren't supposed to wear a bracelet watch with a suit...it's supposed to be leather...but who am i to judge
