    I love my hot wheels V8, I actually think it's the best model we've had of that car so far!

    A pity about the wheels though. Those rims are looking too plastic and cheap. Everything else about it is perfect.

    Watchdives have just released their NTTD homage in a 39mm titanium in case anyone would like a slightly smaller version.

    I must admit the Brosnan Seamaster has never done anything for me, I tend to like all of Craig's watches- including the NTTD, which looks quite like the Brosnan/CR one! :) It'd be boring if we all liked the same things though.
    It's a shame I don't really like the Brosnan one, because they're not too pricey to pick up, unlike all the other ones!

    Just looking back through this thread: I had a sudden revelation last year and the SMP clicked for me! So I bought a Casino Royale era one with the applied indices and red text and I absolutely love it :D


    I only just came across this guy doing mod kits for the Casio AE1200 and I missed his kickstarter annoyingly. Definitely would have tried to help it get off the ground, anyone else?

    Mock-up of Bond's watch in the new game, 007 First Light. An Omega Seamaster 300 Co-Axial Master Chronometer (phew), presumably a 44mm. New colour scheme in orange - a clue that the watch activates his motorcycle's flamethrower exhaust. Looked like he pressed down on the face to activate rather than push the crown though.

    This may be the main watch featured, however, there was a second watch spotted during the nightclub and driving scene with metal bracelet and coin edge knurl on the bezel, possibly a Planet Ocean. Looking forward to seeing more of these in action.

    Nicely done, got all the details I think: although it looks like the hands might have black tips possibly? It'll be interesting to see if they release it.

    Bond fandom remains unbeaten. Detailed descriptions of the watches. Somewhere else we already had a whole look at the chess scene from chess experts. Incredible

    How awesome that would be - hopefully accurate and not a 007-branded edition.

    Good pick up on that. Edited the image, darkening the hands. Initial thinking was that they were meant to be chrome and that the engine might not be perfect at rendering chrome. Comparing with the Navy Seals watch, around the lumes are darker too.

    Yeah as mentioned on ajb, it seems to be a bit based on the special unit seamasters with those black hands.
