This is a personal ranking but for me back in the 90s it used to be 1) Rolex, 2) Omega and 3) Tag Heuer... fast forward 2026 and its still 1) Rolex, 2) Tudor and 3) Tag Heuer... Omega? I don't even know where they rank now maybe 4th or a bit lower but yeah, its sad that the rivalry used to be "Rolex or Omega" now they are just the butt of a joke, and a bad one at that. (and please spare me of your Tag Heuer comments, I was wearin an F! back in 87 when I was just 10 years old and were not even born or if u were alive didn't even wore a watch)

- Can we now have something like a 40~41mm 2254.50 that is around 12mm thick. Nobody wants a 3 hand watch that is almost 14.5mm thick!
- There are no new 007 movies coming out; they've made everything they could, so now they're even making the enemy's watch lol.
- Cosplay. I like the black one in general. Give the bezel lume and at least pretend it was made for any kind of mission. Remove the cosplay logo, that’s for kids and maybe…
In the end, we all know, what the real Bond Watch is, don’t we?
- Disappointing stuff here. Same seamasters without any design or unique overhaul, stamped with logos and emblems at a higher price point. No individualism that set the Spectre and NTTD watches out against the crowd. It just comes across as very lazy merchandising at incredibly expensive prices.
- Next collaboration: Bond goes to space, taking an Omega .. right until the crystal pops off like it did on Apollo, and the slippery bezel refuses to turn with his gloves on, forcing him to pull out a 300-buck Citizen Eco-Drive atomic radio-controlled watch that actually works, and well.
- Such a poor release. No attempt at a proper bracelet. Same watch with a different dial and bezel but they made it thicker abd far more expensive. How is OMEGA still in business.
- Turning the bezel of a diver’s watch is not easy. It feels uncomfortable when I feel like I have to exert more effort and be more careful. The next Seamaster needs improvement.
- Apart from the He valve which should be gone, the thickness that seems to be an ever growing concern, we still have the bracelet that has 3 layers at the buckle and is not refined or elegant, in fact I didn't get the NTTD many years ago because of it. I just can't fathom it, no pun intended. Read these comments Omega and all the others on the popular sites, you have to change something. 40 mm, two variants of the bracelet, the original one with a taper and slightly thinner and a regular bracelet like you had in the past. If you must do the mesh, you need to change the clasp. How did it get out the door?
- still like my blue dial version with all bezel lumed :)
But seriously Omega, please thing about improving the bezel rotating issue
I know it's so called classic but it's almost impossible to use freely as it's damn slippery
one reason rolex were well received is due to it's bezel design: high quality, elegant, and practical
- Geez omega no one is asking for this. You have 10,000 variations of one model this is insanity. No wonder you lost your spot to Cartier. How about you fix your existing catalog by making smaller watches with brand new redesign bracelets that taper from 20 to 16 with new clasp with micro adjust how about you? Listen to the people who are spending their money instead of giving them more James Bond that they never asked for this is ridiculous.less is more.
- I feel the same way.😅 Omega is so disappointing, and they don't even try to understand what customers want these days.
- Team Omega, kindly read the comments, listen to your customer base and stop milking old stuff! You're literally destroying the brand yourselves. Please get it together. It's a request as your fan.
- Why do these guys just play around with colors and lose their minds... Yeah, whatever~ It's our Omega~ Buy it no matter how much people curse at you~ Full of mannerisms, just releasing it with a different color because they feel like doing something...
Bracelets? Ugh, what a hassle... Everyone buys them even if they just slap a mesh on and sell them, so what
- Is this your way Omega of paying tribute to a cinematic legend? Whether it's Spectre or the 60th Anniversary version, neither lives up to the legend. Sorry for the inconvenience Mr. Fleming 🙏🏻
- The new, old watch, with that annoyingly uncomfortable bracelet. The same old “pick&mix” production straight from the huge Omega warehouses, packed to the brim with millions of spare parts and components. The price is just another Omega joke.
- If anyone (FROM OMEGA) is reading this these two watches are a waste of time (😅 sorry) and money. I could tell OMEGA how to make a seamaster 300 that would sellout but they are too lazy and too ignorant to listen. OMEGA are going to be in VERY serious trouble soon if they carry on with this lazy BS. OMEGA contact me if you want to design a hit watch, 😂😂😂 don't leave it too long.
- I'm a huge fan of Omega watches, but I'm curious if the association with James Bond still matters much. Do younger people actually know about or wear a watch from a movie secret agent? I'm not sure. For me, it's not a big deal.
- I’d like to meet the idiot at Omega who looked at these designs and thought “People are really going to want to wear these watches” and give him the name of an excellent optician.
