Oops...

: I can tell right away that it isn't the GMT
: since too much of the crown is exposed.
: Also, the new co-axial Bond GMT does have
: the applied (metal encased) markers and
: longer hands. The hands in this photo appear
: to correspond in length to those on the new
: co-axial Bond SMP. In looking at my own Bond
: SMP, this model's hands are definitely
: longer.

: So, with longer hands, applied markers, and the
: crown exposure, I'm about 99.9% certain that
: this is the new co-axial SMP. This would
: also make sense since this watch is expected
: to be in stores by the time the movie hits
: theaters.

: Thank you for these incredible blown-up shots,
: Sean. They have helped identify his
: "other" new watch (the Planet
: Ocean has already been seen).

: You have to give credit to Omega. These two
: watches combined will retail for well over
: $6000, so they know how to market their
: products to the true Bond enthusiasts.

That second sentence should have read:

Also, the new co-axial Bond SMP does have the applied (metal encased) markers and longer hands.
