Hey Steve,
These are two very similar and yet very distinctive watches. I agree with what most of the guys have said -"Go with your gut". Part of the fun and frustration of choosing a watch is the feeling you get when you know you have found 'the ONE'. It does not happen often because with any watch, chances are there may always be something about it that isn't quite right or that you wish was different; bigger hands, sub-second dial, smoother-sounding bezel, etc.
If, in a perfect world, we all owned our own watch companies, then we would probably get exactly the watch that we want.
Either watch is great. I love the Bond watch, but I wish the hands were not skeletonized. I love the new Seamaster with the sword-shaped hands, but the hour markers seem too big to me. But I like the watch because it is highly legible. Even if you live to be 100, you'll still be able to read the time on it with poor eyesight.
Which one do I wear? Hell, I've wanted to be Bond since I was eight.

P.S.- I've just read what I wrote and I don't think I've offered you any help at all, Steve. Choose the one that makes you smile.
