OMEGA celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of the first James Bond film with the launch of two commemorative limited edition watches, a press conference and a showcase of props from every James Bond film at its new Westfield Stratford (England) boutique.
Mads Mikkelsen, as Le Chiffre, wears a Longines Evidenza Chronograph watch in the movie Casino Royale. The watch can be seen during the thrilling poker game in the film, most clearly in chapter 20 of the DVD and also on a set photo printed in the James Bond Encyclopedia, page 71.
Watch maker Swatch released a collection of watches in 2008, drawing inspiration from 22 James Bond villains. The watches are each designed to reflect the personality and style of one or more evil characters from some of the most well-known James Bond films.
In the James Bond movie Quantum of Solace, Daniel Craig sports yet another Omega, a Seamaster Planet Ocean 600m Co-Axial Chronometer with a black dial (watch ref. 2201.50.00).
In the film, the watch doesn't have a gadget function. Bond wears the watch
The Omega Seamaster 300M Chronometer 2226.80 James Bond Limited Series, featuring the classic gun barrel emblem and 007 logo on the second hand, is a special edition of the Seamaster 2220.80 watch worn by Daniel Craig in Casino Royale.
During the release of the film Quantum of Solace in 2008, the Omega Seamaster Limited Edition Quantum of Solace was released with a special black bezel, in stead of the traditional blue.
The Omega Seamaster Professional Diver is worn by Daniel Craig in his first Bond movie Casino Royale (2006). He wears the stainless steel 41mm with blue face, blue bezel on a stainless steel bracelet, model 2220.80.00. The watch doesn't have any special Q-features, unlike the Seamaster watches worn by Pierce Brosnan in his movies.
The Seiko H357 5040 Duo Display digital wristwatch was worn by James Bond (Roger Moore) in the 1981 movie For Your Eyes Only. This is the third movie in a row in which James Bond wears a Seiko digital watch.
The Seiko G757 Sports 100 watch is used by Bond (Roger Moore) in Octopussy. The Seiko is equipped with a tracking device to locate the Fabergé egg, and is clearly visible several times in the movie.
Rolex and James Bond have a strong connection. James Bond wears a Rolex watch in the original Ian Fleming books (read more) and before Omega started supplying the watches for 007, Bond wore a Rolex in several movies.
The Seiko 0674 5009 Quartz LC model number DK001 was used by Bond in the 1977 movie The Spy Who Loved Me. On the watch 007 receives a ticker-tape message, rolling out as embossing tape, telling him to report to MI6 Headquarters:
007 TO REPORT HQ. IMMEDIATE M.
James Bond wears the same watch throughout the movie, from the first to the last scene.
The Seiko M354 5019 model SFX003 Memory-Bank Calendar was used by James Bond (Roger Moore) in the 1979 movie Moonraker.
The Seiko watch is a gadget watch: it is equipped with explosives and a remote detonator, which Bond uses to escape from the Moonraker launch platform.
The Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Casino Royale Limited Edition 2907.50.91 is a special version of the Planet Ocean 2900.50.91 that Bond wears in the movie Casino Royale.
In Casino Royale Daniel Craig wears an Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Big Size, reference 2900.50.91 with a steel case, black dial, black bezel and black rubber strap. Bond prefers his Planet Ocean on outdoor occasions, for example the Madagascar chase scene at the beginning of the movie.
