: I agree that it's not an official MGM
: announcement. But, it makes sense -
That's why such rumors get reported -- they sound reasonable. But they are WRONG. Just because it sounds plausible does not make it true.
: I agree - it seems likely a new watch will be
: chosen if a new Bond is in the movie. This
: aspect seems the most certain at this point.
But hopefully, it may continue to be an OMEGA watch. Just not the same classic blue SMP.
: I'm just not certain
: Brosnan brings any value to the table as an
: Omega ambassador if he's not the guy playing
: James Bond.
I *totally* disagree. Just because your interest in Brosnan might only be because he is Bond doesn't mean that everyone else loses interest in him once he retires from that role.
Brosnan is still an A-List Hollywood actor.
Plus, like Connery, Lazenby, Moore and Dalton who preceeded him, he is stepping down from active duty, but will still always be James Bond -- just not the current one. Likewise, the Rolex Submariner and the OMEGA Seamaster Professional will also always be a Bond watch. The four movies Brosnan and the SMP have appeared in will never go away.
Even better for OMEGA would be to have *multiple* James Bond actors on the team promoting multiple models or lines of watches. Brosnan as the old-school Bond and (insert new actor here) as the new-school Bond.
