Why It’s Famous:

• Bond Watch Legacy: This was the first Omega watch worn by James Bond, marking the beginning of the official Omega and 007 partnership, replacing Rolex which had been the favored brand in earlier Bond films.

• Style and Recognition: The blue wave dial and skeleton hands became instantly recognizable, helping Omega reposition the Seamaster line as a luxury-sport icon.

• Collector Status: Although it was a quartz watch, its Bond association gives it serious collector appeal, especially as vintage Omega demand grows.
