OMEGA 007 watch and James Bond 007 watch

The OMEGA Seamaster Professional 007 Diver has been worn by Pierce Brosnan in all four of his James Bond movies, including the 2002 film Die Another Day. He chooses the stainless steel full size with blue face, blue bezel on a stainless steel bracelet -- models 2531.80 (automatic) or 2541.80 (quartz). In the earlier James Bond films starring Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, and Timothy Dalton, Bond is often seen wearing a Rolex Submariner. Thunderball featured various watches by Rolex, Breitling, and Breitling's "Top Time" line. Omega 007 watch On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969) featured George Lazenby as Bond wearing his personal Rolex Submariner (bought while auditioning for the role) and a Rolex Chronograph. Several of the later Roger Moore films such as The Spy Who Loved Me (1978) and Octopussy (1983) featured Seiko watches -- most notably ones with high-tech digital or video displays.Sellers of OMEGA watches sometimes loosely apply the 'James Bond' nickname to any of the skeleton-hand OMEGA Seamaster models. But so far, only the 2531.80 and 2541.80 have ever appeared on Bond's wrist in a film, though it is reasonable to consider the mid-sized versions of both those watches (2551.80 and 2561.80) to also be 'James Bond' watches.Other models of the Seamaster have been featured as movie tie-ins. The Edge (1997) features Alec Baldwin wearing an OMEGA Seamaster Professional Chronograph which becomes involved in an interesting plot complication.
