Amazing Replica Omega Watch’s Secret Weapon
In the minds of many fans and collectors, the fake Rolex and James Bond are intimately “bonded” together the two had a sophisticated relationship in fact. It was reported over the years that the replica breitling refused to ever sponsor the films or provide replica watches for the actors — often leaving them to be sourced by a third party, or even the crew. While Rolex might have made a tremendous commission off of brand recognition over the years, as a matter of fact, they didn’t market themselves as the ‘Bond watch’ once.
It was 1995 and Pierce Brosnan was chosen to play 007 in Golden Eye. During this time, Hollywood was capitalizing on product placement and the breitling replica saw this chance to secure their brand alongside the coveted Bond brand of complication.
It’s not like the Omega wasn’t already seen as a luxury watch, they just weren’t seen as the Bond watch. However, the marketing strategy further cemented their brand identity and bolstered their connections to the British Royal Navy — which had partnered with the brand often in real life.
Looking back to the year of 2006 and we have a new man playing Bond once again, this time, Daniel Craig. Along with the new actor came a makeover for the Bond brand — a bit edgier, but still along the lines of styled and refined. The brand reportedly determined to continue with the Omega relationship because while high-end, sharp and luxurious, it didn’t come with the same high-brow as the replica Rolex and seemed to be a better fit for their new leading role.
Now, let’s take a look at the specs. The Omega Seamaster 300m chronometer is one of the brand’s best owing to its ties to the secret agent — but this chronometer watch bolsters a great reputation on its own thanks to a handful of key characteristics.
The Planet Ocean is smaller than what we’re used to seeing on Bond’s wrist with a smaller 42mm case. However, the look is fitting for the refined Bond going for a more understated, but still classic, look. The replica watch featured in the film has specs like: a black dial, steel bracelet, Seamaster written in a stunning orange together with a second hand with an orange tip, alongside 600 meter water resistant case, a screw-in crown, see-back case back, unidirectional rotating bezel and helium escape valve.
That movie prompted the replica Omega to launch a limited edition Skyfall Seamaster Planet Ocean 600m because of the booming popularity. The watch also celebrated Omega’s seventh appearance in the Bond films.
