OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M 007 Edition [worn by DC in No Time to Die]

James Bond 007’s (imho) coolest (Omega – obviously nothing touches Sean Connery’s Rolex Submariner Ref. 6538 from Dr. No) diver’s watch is going under the hammer! Here’s your chance to get your hands on the actual wristwatch worn by Daniel Craig in his final outing as James Bond in No Time to Die. There have been a few tasty SM divers worn by Ian Fleming’s fictional MI6 ‘00’ agent since Pierce Brosnan famously wore his SM300 in the 1995 Golden Eye film. Several of those timepieces that were worn on set have been sold at auction but this Seamaster Diver 300M 007 Edition in TITANIUM as worn by DC is predicated to outsell them all. It is projected to fetch 18’500USD to 24’5OOUSD when it goes under the hammer next month so not quite the mega bucks that Ref. 6438’s make but give it a few decades. Anyway, you’ll be able to bid on the watch at Christie’s upcoming Sixty Years of James Bond online auction on Sept. 28 2022 along with an SM Aqua Terra plus several cars, Bond props and a boat. The SM Diver 300M 007 Edition is being sold by EON Productions Limited, who is going to donate their entire proceeds from the lot to TIME’S UP UK. To prove that the watch is legit it comes in a custom watch box along with a certificate signed by Daniel Craig and Barbara Broccoli as well as Michael G Wilson and Raynald Aeschlimann. Btw all watch images are the copyright of Christie’s Auction House; if you expand them you’ll be able to see that the watch has fair amount of wear and tear. I wonder what its TZ rating would be? Thoughts? I absolutely love this Titanium variant; it’s on the list of must haves but I’d prefer a BNIB one, myself. But what do you think?
