The Watch from Goldeneye 007 (Omega Seamaster 300m) | History of Bond Watches 

How much did you paid it

@@hatchi3033 I bought mine in November of 2000, got a 2541.80 at the PX for $1199.95. The newer Coaxials came out a couple of years later. The 2541.80 has shot up to $2500-3000 now.

​@@desertsoldier41 Spot on. I recall mine being very similarly priced at purchase in 2001.

it got me into watches as a kid too.

Haha. Yeah that would have been great though!

GoldenGuns im serious though, Doak still has his

@@crashoveride879 Do you have something your referencing, like an interview or an article? Or, are you joking and I'm not getting that...

Wow! I thought you were just being funny. Totally didn’t know that! Thank you for sharing that crazy fact! I hope Doak see’s this video.

@@crashoveride879 You sold yours??? 😲 Or you are not part of dev team, like me ?

Best comment in the whole thread.

I'll be sneaking my apple watch on school like James bond

If people actually read the novels, Dalton instantly becomes their favorite. It’s science.

@@ArcLight726 THANK YOU! He’s not my personal favorite, that’s Connery because of nostalgia, but yeah Dalton is the Fleming BOND!

Let's not forget to mention. The only reason why Dalton didn't do a third film was because his contract expired. Due to something completely unrelated to him, a legal battle between the long time Bond film producer Albert R. Broccoli and the studio MGM/UA. Hell, even after that debacle ended they still wanted him to do 3 or 4 more films. However, Timothy Dalton declined the offer and step away from the role for good. I don't understand why so many people undervalue Timothy Dalton's time as James Bond.

When he said that, I was like "Uh... WHAT!?!?" Dalton is extremely underrated in the role and he brought new life to the character and the films with his more mature take on Bond after Roger Moore's films were so campy which got old really fast

Yes. I’m back! I promise it won’t be another two years this time. My personal life has just been very busy and this channel has to take a hiatus. Thanks for your patience!

Thank you! Walther PPK video in the works.

Thank you my friend! Did you see the longer video I just did about Goldeneye and the other James Bond games?

Thanks! No more two year breaks lol.

@@goldenguns2659 So when are you going to review the T-55 tank?

I assume you're sending me one for review, right? Do I need to sign for it, or will the postman leave it by the door?

The one in the movie was actually an Omega Seamaster 300 Quartz as the Automatic didn't come out until the following year, it was then worn in The World Os Not Enough and Die Another Day.

Well played my friend. Please excuse any shade I may have cast on your watch. Wear it in good health, or at least with full body armor. Also, cool about the N64 promo watch. Is it a Goldeneye promo watch specifically or am N64 one?

@@goldenguns2659 No worries. Trust me, I've seen some of the custom made GE themed watches for sale out there, and I know how bad they can be. The promo watch is a proper GoldenEye 007 N64 one. I ended up getting it cheaper on eBay, because a part of the face is missing (think the numbers round the edge). It still looks perfectly fine to me, though. Plus, for paying probably a tenth of what they would usually go for, who cares! Hehe.

Nothing to regret though really Invicta is a dynamite watch and Omega is too and who says you won't come to own both in time?

Invicta’s a great watch. My bronze dialed Pro-Diver looks exactly like the one in “No Time to Die”

Not a dig at Seiko. I have a lot of respect for them. Just pointing out that from the perspective of Rolex and Omega, Seiko was the young upstart reinventing the watch industry.

@@goldenguns2659 Seiko was making incredible mechanical movements well before the quartz crisis. They even were the first manufacturer to sell an automatic chronograph (there's some controversy and backstory here) and were doing things in automatic chrono movements in the late 60s that Rolex didn't do in-house until the late 90's. Seiko was also founded before Rolex. Omega was using modified ETA automatic movements in these Seamasters until just a couple years ago. Same with Tudor in many models. Seiko has been all in-house for so long I can't even figure it out. Lot's of misconceptions out there about Seiko based on nothing other than marketing by Swiss watch manufacturers. My Seikos run forever, accurately, are beaten like hell and never need a service. I cannot say the same about my Seamaster, though I adore it. I have a 5 year old Oris which I have babied that needs a service. I prefer Swiss personally for irrational reasons, but I still love a Seiko and see them as just as good or better than most of the big Swiss brands. And they can achieve this at a tiny fraction of the cost

Exactly, Dalton was actually a fan of Fleming’s novels so he was able to portray Bond the most accurately

He wasn’t my taste but I agree he did an incredible job portraying the character in a different style than anyone else had.

Dalton was the most true to the character and probably the best most skilked actor to play 007.

@@goldenguns2659 Dalton was a great Bond and led the way to Brosnan

I agree license to kill is still to me the best film of the franchise

I think the one from goldeneye is better

Well, I knew I’d make a mistake somewhere here. I stand corrected sir.

Good points. I knew it was a NATO strap. I must have misspoken.

Wrong

Roger Moore wore the Arnie in the "View To A Kill" for some scenes

I’m thinking you have to pay extra for the laser.

I can fit a 200mw diode in the helium escape valve. Won't cut steel...but it will pop balloons.

And the strap on the Dr. No Submariner isn't leather either. But also, shut up

@@thecianinator What's your problem? Which part did I even mention anything about a Submariner? Excuse me while I block you. I don't have time to entertain you. Don't bother to reply because obviously I've blocked you by the time you read this and won't be notified of any of your response. 👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼

I believe it’s 41mm

I will. It takes me some time but hang in there and there will be more.

They’re a handmade swiss watch. You get what you pay for!

What echo?

GoldenGuns Sounds like your in another room

I didn’t hear that. Strange.

Yeah I agree completely. I don’t at all get the new design choices. And also, where’s the wave dial? That’s my favorite part!

Always there with the corrections. Good thing you caught that critical error. Also, the bracelet isn’t titanium. I don’t know what I was thinking that day.

lol. Considering he almost became a she, I wouldn’t be surprised. Actually, I did go from wearing an Apple Watch to the Seamaster. I made my own custom watch face for it that looks like the Goldeneye pause screen, because... I have a problem.

@@goldenguns2659 I own an omega seamster 300m as well! Can you do a video of your custom one?

You mean the Apple Watch wallpaper?

@@goldenguns2659 oh, haha I thought you changed an actual watches dial xD

lol no, I think if I “customized” an actual Omega Seamaster you could rightfully have me locked up.

Quartz is no longer made. So it is become collectable.

Besides the exact goldeneye was ... the quartz...

​@@ph69jbl I bought mine because it was the original Brosnan Bond watch.

Shut up, you bell end.

Yeah, I made a few mistakes in this video. I was excited about it and probably could have taken some more time to get things in order.

no.

Try again kid

You're obviously not a watch guy lol
