2006 Omega Seamaster 300m Chronometer aka "Bond Seamaster"

This dependable classic is famously known as the "Bond Seamaster", having been immortalised in 3 James Bond movies namely 1997's Tomorrow Never Dies, 1999's The World Is Not Enough, and 2002's Die Another Day. Other Seamaster models only had 1 appearance in 1 movie, but this came out on the silver screen in 3 movies- quite an achievement for this chronometric watch.




This Seamaster model no. 2531.80.00 has its fair share of collectors worldwide. Watch is unpolished and in its original condition, with scratches to reflect its age but nothing that a round of polish could not remove. Comes with bracelet and extension links, and original Omega box. Specs as per the following :

The lume is still going strong despite years of "secret service".






This model is very popular and its high resale value is testament to that. These are some of the current adverts for this Omega model as Googled earlier today :









This is one Omega that one should definitely view in person to appreciate the fine craftmanship even further.

    Your watches are always kept pristine so whomever that buy your Omega would sure like it. I'm still enjoying the Orient M-Force that I bought from you, bro.

    You seemed to be a genuine collector. I am a genuine collector too. I bought Omega from mudah pedlars last time, turned out to be replica. I am interested to buy from you because your write-up on blog showed you are genuine collector. What is best cash price, and can send to Omega centre to verify?
