I got this one about 3 months old with everything that was a Boutique watch for $2800.
From where?

Interestingly, the modded Seiko 007 I bought recently keeps time much better than my Rolexes, Tudors, Omegas, or Panerai.

Hopefully you didn't obtain that from The Ukraine.

No, not the Ukraine. I got it stateside. It is a 1926 if I remember correctly.

Lots of fake pocket watch conversions on Ebay from the Ukraine.

Thanks for the tip. That Seamaster is pretty much exactly what I want. I just keep buying boats and fly fishing gear.

Decided to go with the Oris Divers Sixty-Five over the Longines Heritage. Looks great on and is really comfortable.

The font of the 12, 3, 6, and 9 is, well, interesting.

wait why did you go through all that to get that watch? was it when it was on sale? mine came in a day in normal packaging from amazon.


"All that?" Not really sure what you mean. I bought it on Amazon when I posted the price had gone down. The seller shipped it from Japan. It was just like a typical purchase from an Amazon approved seller.

It was seamless on my end. It showed up on my doorstep last night with a conventional Amazon package. Just took a little longer than a prime purchase.

Bought that exact 007 via watchuseek guy in FL this week. Paid $165. Came with jubilee bracelet and he threw in 5 NATO's. Couldn't be happier.

007 really is one of the best watches out there.

I'm really liking it. I find myself looking it at throughout the day. Seems to be keeping good time, as well. It's only off by approximately a second in 24 hours or so. That's using the time.gov website.

I swapped out the factory plastic/rubber band for a NATO band. I like the way it looks!



Ok, enough from me on my purchase.

Damn you guys. Now I find myself wanting to buy a Seiko. Never thought I'd say that.

I must have missed it and don't want to read through all 27 pages, but what is the "007" watch?

I'm assuming it's the James Bond edition Omega Seamaster, right?

Do it. You know you want to. I actually ordered one the other night. Should be there when I get home today.

Thanks. That's a pretty cool knock-around watch. I actually like the Pepsi-face if it came in at least a 44mm diameter case. Anything smaller than that looks like a ladies watch on my wrist.

I'm wearing this Luminox right now and posted a pic of it on my wrist a few pages back: Luminox 3053 Evo Navy Seal Colormark

The Seiko model number for the watch that many have posted is SKX007.

You bet. Got mine last week and love it. With the jubilee bracelet, I'm surprised how comfortable it is. But I also love it's looks with a NATO.

The jubilee and Nato are great, but get a Strapcode Super Oyster and it will kick this watch up about 10 notches.

If I got the 007, it would be the Spectre one
