OMEGA celebrates new James Bond watch in New York

Swiss watchmaker OMEGA hosted an event in New York to celebrate its newest James Bond watch. Guests – including actor Daniel Craig, and producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli – were welcomed at The Top of the Standard, where the new Seamaster Diver 300M 007 Edition was unveiled. James Bond has been wearing an OMEGA since “GoldenEye” in 1995 – the choice of Lindy Hemming, the costume designer for all the Bond films between “GoldenEye” and “Casino Royale”. The new 007 Edition has been purpose-built for the needs of 007. Crafted from lightweight Grade 2 titanium, it includes an innovative titanium mesh bracelet, as well as military-style engravings and a vintage appearance thanks to its “tropical” brown aluminium dial and bezel. This non-limited watch will be placed in OMEGA’s current collection and available to customers worldwide from February.
