Sharing this experience with us makes us feel like it's our watch collectively.
Take good care of our watch.⌚
I am so happy to hear you say that! That’s what I was going for.
@@TheBondExperience Yes! Collectively! So where is the sign out sheet? I wanted to sign out the watch for next weekend...
Sorry to be so off topic but does anybody know of a way to log back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb lost my account password. I love any assistance you can offer me.
@Hezekiah Troy instablaster :)
@Ledger Oliver Thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Congratulations David! Thanks for sharing the journey and watch with us. We're living vicariously through you!
Love your videos, David. So great to see you so joyful and enthusiastic. And you're right, the customer experience plays a huge role in owning something so treasured. Take care!
Congrats to the watch! This is probably the best review of this watch...so much passion and excitement for this piece....it takes you back to the first Omega that I bought...remember the feeling👍🏽
Congratulations David! I know and love the excitement of a new “incoming!” When all the research, and trials come together in that stunning new piece for your collection. Wear it in the best of health, and thanks for all you do for the Bond community!
Huge congratulations on your NTTD SMP. I was smiling broadly as you unboxed it and strapped it on. I'e had mine for 2 weeks now and Omega have really nailed it with this watch. Enjoy it in great health.
I knew it after your announcement yesterday lol. Congratulations, David. I know how much getting this piece meant to you. Wear in good health!👍
Thanks so much!
David, your enthusiasm is wonderful. Your first video of this model played a huge part in me deciding I had to have it and it had to be on the titanium mesh. I had to wait 3 months to get mine, during which I drove myself crazy obsessing over it. To clearly see how much owning it means to you, the excitement, the childish giddyness and the beaming smile, it's just so great that we both managed to get something we coveted so badly. I'm sure you'll love owning yours as much as I do mine and want to wish you many happy memories with it, especially wearing it when we finally get to see the film and the part it plays. I look forward to watching many more of your videos. All the best fella 👍
I’ve never had a bad experience at any Omega Boutiques.
I love the NTTD watch, almost bought it and maybe I will in the future but after trying it on, I still think the Spectre is the nicest Bond Omega watch till this day. Maybe next year I’ll retire it for a bit and buy the NTTD.
Enjoy David! Best video about this watch on youtube. Thanks for sharing your experience.
I've been looking at it in a watch store in Helsinki... and this video makes not buying it so much harder. David, you make my life expensive : ) /Klaus
LOL....brother, we are one and the same, you know that!
I absolutely LOVE this watch. Titanium case, lumed bezel insert...everything about it is so beautiful. Back in November I bought my Grail watch which is a Seamaster Professional Diver 300m. I fell in love with watches because of James Bond. For 10 years I have wanted and desired an Omega. I would love to add a Bond version to my collection. If you love and appreciate these watches as much as I do, I know you will love this watch for the rest of your lifetime. Congrats on getting such an amazing piece.
Hi David, having this watch since Feb. 22 I’ve experienced 100% the same emotions like you. Very happy with it, wearing it daily…. Very much appreciate this look and style! Thanks for this video ! Juergen from Germany
Thank you David, you convinced me to walk into a boutique in London and make the purchase. Had both straps thrown in and all the gifts including a full bottle of Bollonger Champagne. I would highly recommend. The experience to anyone
Congratulations on the watch! Your excitement is affectious.
Thank you!
One of your best videos, congratulations you brought some more joy into the world!
Thank you!
Amazing vid! I can feel your excitement! Keep it up man
Thanking for sharing your Bond Experience. Your excitement was contagious! My husband will be buying this watch in the near future and I'm sure he will love it as much as you do. Thanks for the Manfredi connection. We may end up buying from them if our local boutique experience is not everything we'd want it to be.
Big congratulation, David :):) This watch is so amazing. It shows that you are VERY happy. :)
Yeah, it was hard to hide the excitement.
Lol dude i’m late to the channel but i’m so excited for you. Congratulations on receiving the coolest watch I would ever wear, and thank you for sharing the experience with us.
Congratulations, David. It's a great watch, and acquisition. Wear it in good health, and enjoy. Oh, and keep up the great work.
Thank you!
Exceptional vid, David! Happy for you, bro! Wear it in good health! :-)))
Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece with us.
Congratulations David, lovely watch! And thanks for sharing the unboxing.
My pleasure!
Great & fun video! I love that watch and Omega. Happy for you that you got the latest Bond watch. Enjoy it and wear in good health.
Stay safe!
It was fun to see your excitement for the new watch. Congrats!
Dear David, Many thanks for entertaining us with this story, highly appeciated ;). My experience with the Omega store was great. Last time I went in there to get my Seamaster Vintage serviced. They did not charge a dime, but instead advised me to save a few hundred I was about to spend on the service in order to preserve the original sealing which makes it waterproof. It is not only about making money for them (at least Hamburg, Jungfernstieg), but they do really care about the watches and the history and value of it. Kudos to Jun Li and her boss, Mr Müller.
I watched your entire unboxing full-screen and enjoyed your excitement. Also, really like your Bond experience video intro.
Very happy for you, David! No one deserves to own one of these more than you.
Happy for you man! I really dig the watch.
Hiya David thanks for sharing your excitement with us all, well deserved. It's a beautiful watch.
Love your videos thanks for sharing. Take care.
Thank you!
Enjoyed the video. UA-cam is glutted with so many 'unboxing' vids that it's really a pleasure to see someone truly excited by the item itself. Fine watch indeed!
Thanks for sharing your excitement! I’ve been doing the exact same thing with the watch I had been looking for: the 8500 cal Planet Ocean 42. After years I’ve finally found a good one, pre owned but recently serviced (2/2020) and sold with box and papers at a very reasonable price by the good people at Watchfinder. It is 0/+1 per day to my high tech Seiko Astron GPS Quartz. So it isn’t just a marvelously versatile yet elegant sports watch, but also a precision timepiece. I’m sure you will enjoy this wonderful 300M as well. Wear it in good health!
Congrats with your new watch. It's amazing! ♥
Awesome Watch! Looks so Fantastic on you. -Finally viewed the "No Time to Die" movie. THANKS!
Great video David! This watch was designed entirely for function. You mention the wave dials and aqua terra, and how much cleaner this is. It’s because it serves its purpose as a military tool. The lack of polished parts is because reflections would risk drawing attention out in the field. They literally designed the watch for its intended use and environment. Congrats on acquiring it! 👏🏻
Thank you....and great tidbits!
Love your non professional watch review, down to earth and real. Thanks
I got this in my recommendations and come from a "watch community" rather than a Bond / movie background. But watching you talk about and unwrap your watch was entertaining as hell. Especially as you are trying to get through the horological/movement/watch lingo. I am sorry to hear about your bad experience. I honestly think it is a fluke as my own experiences have been so good. Congratulations. Wear it in good health.
Omega confirmed in an interview the watch is... more than just a watch ;)
Of course they did lol
Great video, I’m planning on getting a seamaster for my 50th in December, can’t wait having watched this
Congratulations 🎉🎈🎊🍾 awesome edition to your collection.
Thanks for sharing your joy. Enjoy in good health
Thank you David! I have the same feelings with my SMP I got myself for my college graduating, even though mine is the mid size quartz. The feelings are similar. It’s a special watch enjoy it to the fullest!
That's fantastic!
It was fun to see your enthusiasm during the unboxing. I recently purchased a Seamaster Diver 300M. I debated between the black and the blue dial version. My AD had the black in stock but I chose the blue dial. It's the dial color worn by Bond. Choosing blue meant waiting for a few weeks but it was worth the wait. Wear your No Time To Die Seamaster in the best of health!
Great decision to go whit The beautiful mesh bracelet. This is a watch that looks way better when worn then it does by itself on display.
Big congratulations and great point on customer service! Fantastic watch
Customer service is hugely important.
Great video! Your enthusiasm is contagious. Enjoyed thoroughly. I just got this beautiful watch as well so it was quite an experience. Funny how they didn't include a spring bar tool, huh? Cheers and hope you are enjoying the watch.
Customer experience and small touches like the personal note in the card can keep a customer for life which is what they should be trying to achieve. Well done Manfredi. The watch is stunning. Enjoy it David which we all know you will do ; )
Thank you!
Congrats David! Cheers to great moments shared. My Omega piece means so much to me. Hope to build up to this one before it's revealed in the film. Now go get a pic with it on in the Ashton. BTW saw a matching titanium Omega snow-gray bracelet that it was shot with that goes perfect.
That sounds like a winner!
Yay! Thanks for sharing the opening with me. This is my favourite watch at the moment. Of course I can't afford this right now. Really looking forward to the movie. So I've actually ordered a cheap but half decent HOMAGE of this piece by a brand called Phylida. Should arrive soon. The colours, markings and aesthetics look pretty good and it has a date (which kind of makes it different in it's own right without being a total rip-off, as well as it's own branding and of course it's not titanium (I suspect the lume will be meh) but it does have 100m of water resistance - not bad for $80 though. It'll give me the sort of feel and I can wear it when watching the movie - after sourcing a stainless mesh strap for it and a Bond Nato...
Manfredi is the real deal. They understand luxury retail - and even go the extra distance with experience to differentiate themselves from E-Commerce - even during these strange times. Great video. I typically despise “unboxing” videos - as they have some perverted, delayed gratification, almost burlesque tone to them - but your pace and story was solid.
Thank you so much! I am glad I didn't go for the burlesque angle....I am awful at fan dancing.
Beautiful watch. Milady Samantha and I were very much looking forward to going to see No Time to Die. Regrettably with the delays she passed away on August 8th from her diabetes, and won't be viewing it by my side. Unlike bond in a previous film I am not enjoying death. But watching your review is reminding me of some of the Joy's of life. Thankyou.
Oh wow...so sorry to hear. I am glad the videos can bring you some joy...some solace.
Finally purchased mine and I absolutely love it! Love wearing it with my Solden jacket and N. Peal Lapis Blue turtleneck!
Congratulations on your purchase David, enjoy the watch.
I can feel your happiness and excitement. Have fun with your Omega Watch.
I purchased the same 'Bond' NTTD Seamaster last month. I bought mine on the NATO but now it's on a black rubber strap. It's so light on the wrist. I absolutely love this watch and I also wear it every day.
its spectacular, i love the case and this desert? vibe
Lovely little touch to see the British Army issued equipment arrow on the back :)
Love your enthusiasm for Bond
Well done David, you deserve it for keeping us all entertained during this terrible time that we find ourselves in.
I to have coveted this watch but sadly it's out of reach specially when it's more than a Submariner.
Keep up the good work.
Nice shirt by the way.
Oh, you noticed the polo....what keen eyes you have!
"Wait to you get my teeth" Great show David always a pleasure to watch.
Congratulations David!, as you know I got mine last week. FYI I called the Omega Sydney store 4 times and no one picked up. I left four (4) voicemail messages, stating I wanted to buy the 300M Seamaster, and NO ONE EVER RETURNED MY CALL. So I got mine at Swiss Concept at a great price. Omega’s stores customer service does not exist. All the best mate, enjoy!!
Nice one!
I found it really enjoyable thank you for the great video and review 👍👍👍
This is nice packaging! I prefer the nice wooden box that my Planet Ocean came in, but this wrapping is extremely cool. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Got mine this week, love it
It's a fantastic watch. I can't wait to get mine and get ready to see the movie.
Congratulations on your watch! 👍🏻
Love it Dave!
Love the watch David especially the shark mesh bracelet. I imagine you will be waiting for the scene in the movie when it is displayed on Bond's wrist....
Yeah, can’t wait!
We spent time at our A.D. and I viewed the Aqua Terra and this watch with the NATO strap. I wear a Moonwatch and I have been lusting after this watch ever since I saw it. I love the colours, the hidden messages, the titanium... it is everything I want.
Nice well made replica watch, great video by the way as always keep it up!👍🏼
maan you are so lucky;) that watch is so dope, that's the dream!
I’m not keen on the watch but do appreciate the quality of Omega and the selling process
I got the normal Seamaster in Blue (2018 Version) in March 2020 and I am happy! Such a great quality
Congratulations. You can finally give your big size Casino Royale Planet Ocean a rest and start wearing this one more 👍👍👍👍
It deserved a rest!
Being able to open a deal and closing it is very important with the customer
Horayyyyy! You needed that watch
Congratulations David. Wear it and collect battle scars. It makes this watch just more beautiful! Best regards Oni
I am all about the battle scars.
Bought it today. They actually gave me 1k off since I paid cash. Also gave me two boxes - the regular and a large wooden one - the AD also treated me quite well. I have a collection of Panerai and an Ennebi, but I fell in love with this one.
The perfect watch - the perfect gadget - and, by the way, Mr. Craig is (for me): the perfect James Bond/007. Thank you very much for this wonderful video, this extraordinary, awesome channel, my dear Sir. Sincerely Yours, Tom (Thomas) /Germany... :-)
She is a beauty, congratulations and thanks for sharing. Cheers 🥃
Congrats! I'm still in the honeymoon phase with my Omega Seamaster 300m 25th anniversary bond dial with waves!
My Omega AD is fantastic. They brought out the Bond Seamaster OHMSS 50th anniversary for me to try on, when I bought my FOIS, and are super jazzed about Omega. I love the Bond franchise, but I would like to see Omega move on from the moon and Bond thing a little.
I have it with the Nato strap and I love it! Understated, light and vintage looking. the only problems I have is the aluminum bezel and the when you rotate the bezel it really feels cheap (or old). I do wear it every day and it's great!
Hey, David, you've forgot to wear Tom Ford Prince of Wales suit😂
Too true!
Congratulations on the watch! I almost died when I saw the price of it. YIKES!
You can't beat the watch from Live and Let Die. Clever simple and effective. Really like the bit at the end where Bond uses it to cut the rope.
Thats a winner, for sure!
Like you David, I am super excited for No Time to Die and I sure hope it releases in November (I’m UK based and cinemas are now fully open again and Tenet is out on Wednesday).
Whilst I cant afford the lovely Omega Watch, and I can see how excited you are to have it), I am determined to have an N Peal Navy Commando Jumper. To wear on opening night!
It's a great sweater!
My favorite current production Seamaster - Bond branding or not. This one’s a stunner. Amazing bracelet, thinner case than its sister models, full titanium, great colors, no date window (which I prefer), and on and on it goes.
Oh, and coaxial movement which is only available from Omega and is a genius mechanical marvel!
Agreed all around!
The Omega-Bond tie in does work for me. Even though I know it was created from scratch in the mid 1990s. The power of marketing!
Truly!
Happy Birthday, Sean!
"Baby seal" :P Congrats, David!
I know....cringe! :)
Eventually I’ll “pull the trigger” so to speak, on a Bond watch. The problem I run into (aside from not spending what I’m saving for the watch on something else) is deciding which one speaks to me, feels like “The One.” I love the Tag Hauer Pro Diver that Dalton wore in TLD, I love the Omega 300 from Goldeneye that Brosnan wore, I love the Craig’s Planet Ocean and the NTTD watch as well, and of course Connery’s Rolex, but i could never decide which one was my true Grail Piece.
The Bond Armory Go with the Craig PO from Casino Royale
When I went to get my first (and only) Omega, I almost convinced myself to get the Planet Ocean from Casino Royale (the Black and White one) but got the orange one instead. Some times I wonder if I should’ve got the Bond one, but I love the orange PO.
One thing is for sure: David is going to enjoy this watch! :-)
So, so important is the customer experience and story. I purchased my omega Seamaster from a lovely lady who’s husband I knew from the Aussie SAS. she worked for a jeweller in Perth called Smales - She was actually wearing her husbands special edition Omega seamaster black dial the day I went in to the jeweller. These watches were Only issued to SAS soldiers with their service number etched on the watch itself.. they did a similar thing for the UK SBS. It’s sure was Chunky on her wrist but very cool. My watch with the blue dial is still a prized possession that’s seen some adventure with me and more to come.
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL WATCH!!!!!!!
Congrats David. As a fellow watch geek , I appreciate your excitement! I’m looking forward to purchasing a new Omega Seamaster in the near future. Wear it in good health!
Best Onega. Enjoy it. Great Video👍😊
That is really nice expression of the feeling which got me! BTW, I have the same watch ^
You are so passionate about watches, just as I am. I own this beautiful watch . Enjoy it !
The NATO strap for this watch is superb. I’m surprised it wasn’t supplied ?
