zOwie Omega Discussion Forum

As was discussed here James bond is not real but neither is Santa , the wind or love . But I have seen all of them and to me they are real . That being said James Bond was issued an Omeeega . He did not requisition an Omega so Q chose it just as Nasa chose the Moon Watch .

Bond did resign, in the last movie , wearing the one issued with a black strap and after he hit enter he was wearing the civilian one with a stainless steel bracelet . So he did choose an Omega ! LOL

: You know, I love James Bond movies as much as
: the next guy, and I really love my Bond
: Seamaster. Having said that, I can't help
: but find it a bit amusing to read the words
: "James Bond's Choice" on Omega's
: homepage. I think that, in the interest of
: full disclosure, Omega should add a
: disclaimer to their homepage so they don't
: confuse people who may not be entirely
: "with it". Perhaps something like
: this: NOTE: James Bond did not actually
: choose to wear Omega watches. The reason he
: did not choose them is because he is not
: real. As such, he is incapable of choosing
: anything. The people who actually chose
: Omega are the producers of the James Bond
: films. The reason the producers chose Omega
: is that we paid them a lot of money to make
: this choice. We at Omega believe that the
: James Bond character and the films in which
: he is depicted are great marketing tools for
: our watches. As such, we paid a substantial
: amount of money to require the actors who
: depict James Bond to wear our watches
: onscreen. Again, we want to stress the fact
: that a fictional character did not magically
: come to life and choose to wear Omega
: watches. We sincerely hope that this
: eliminates any possible confusion.

: Any other suggestions or opinions?
