Re: Will Jame Bond be changing watches soon?

I believe the current model is the nicest Omega watch out there and should remain the "Bond watch". This seems to be evidenced by the fact that Omega is switching to the Speedy style bracelet on all but the Bond models, meaning this bracelet is more exclusive. I also belive it is a higher quality and much more distinctive looking bracelet than the Speedy style one.

The skeleton hands on the Bond model also add a touch of sophistication, and I think the smaller numbers written on the bezel look more "proper" than the huge numbers on some of the newer bezels.

The current Bond model is, in my humble opinion, the nicest looking watch out there, so I see no reason to change just for the sake of change.
