I think the "freshened look" was needed>>> *PIC*

Just look at them,they ARE sharp!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this one,I appreciate the personal reply.:-)
: The first appearance of the SMP on Bond's wrist
: was in 1995. So it has been only 8 years so
: far.

: The choice to change the exact model watch Bond
: will wear is not anything that will be
: decided this far in advance of the next
: film. The decision is actually made by the
: costume director once the script is
: finalized and filming is to start soon. But
: I expect they will tend to keep the same
: watch unless there is a very specific reason
: to change.

: Bond wore the Rolex Submariner in movies for
: over 25 years. So why change the Omega after
: only 8?

: And in my opinion, the sword hands and oyster
: bracelet make the SMP look more ordinary --
: too much like other watches on the market.
