zOwie Omega Discussion Forum

: Hi all , i am a watch collector in the UK ,
: mainly Rolex Submariners and Omega
: Speedmasters. I have just acquired what
: appears to be a very rare watch and would
: appreciate some help in determining its
: value. I have seen that 7 prototypes sold in
: the last Omegamania sale and i know that my
: watch is a prototype of the limited edition
: James Bond Seamaster. I am more than happy
: to send several photos if it will help, you
: can email me at
: simonacestrumper@hotmail.com.
: The watch looks identical to the 10007 limited
: edition 22268000 series when looking at the
: dial but turn it over and there our 4 major
: differences .The back around the 007 under a
: loupe is clearly diamond shaped markings
: rather than circular, the marking on the end
: link is on the end rather than centre .There
: is no serial number on the lug and the
: limited edition number is 00000/10007.

: I rang Omega and one of their marketing
: executives came and took photos of the watch
: and confirmed that it is a prototype
: probably used for an advertising campaign
: and should have been returned and destroyed,
: it comes with some Omega marketing stuff in
: a box that was used during the 6 weeks
: before and after the release of the film,
: this includes a Daniel Craig picture in
: perspex and some large gold playing cards
: with centre cut outs for watch stands. These
: aparrently add no value.

: I was told often these watches have dummy
: movements but this one has the coaxial 2500
: Omega movement and is in new unworn
: condition.

: My question is if i wanted to wear it will this
: effect its future value and if so should i
: just add it to my collection and keep it
: unworn untill i decide to sell it?

: Thanks for your help.

: Simon

If someone wants to explain how i can add the photos here i will do it just to show the watch to genuine Omega lovers.
