As I wrote recently on this list, I finally received my own Seamaster Pro 2531.80 on Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. I thought that because Brosnan's watch always seems to show even though he wears long sleeves and a suit, the watch must be so damn big that it doesn't fit underneath a shirt!

I am sure that they made sure the watch could be seen.
