Skyfall Model is my favourite without polished centre links, thanks for the review guys been waiting a while to see if it would get a mention 👍

The Aqua Terra is stunning, thankfully I’m not the only crazy one who noticed it’s appearance in NTTD without watching the movie. Also love how each word in the thumbnail has the fonts from Skyfall, Spectre and No Time To Die.

I own the 38.5mm Skyfall version. It's the most beautiful blue I've ever seen in a dial. I could just sit and look at it all day, especially in sunlight.

I guess the idea is that the Aqua Terra is Bond’s personal watch and then the Planet Oceans are the one assigned to him by Q Branch

A beauty of a watch, the ‘Skyfall blue’ really is a gorgeous colour.

You know I’ve made this same topic in the Omega seamaster fb group which You both should join by the way. You are 100% correct this watch could be considered as DC’s actual bond watch not the SM300. David I’m going to post this video in the Omega FB groups to help you out.

I quickly have to disagree with the statement that Fleming would not have had Bond wear an Aqua Terra because it is not a tool watch. The Aqua Terra is the equivalent to the Rolex Explore, which is the quintessential tool watch that Fleming wore and wrote onto Bond’s wrist. If anything, the Aqua Terra would be his everyday watch and also in the field as a UC, unless he is on an operation and issued a specific watch.

This watch is beautiful. Thanks for the review and movie highlights. You inspired me to seek one out. Arrives tomorrow. Can't wait!

Looks great. Omega is amazing and love the shots showing how often it appears.

Wildly underrated video! Very cool, I agree that the Aqua Terra is probably Daniel Craig’s personal choice. Wonderful timepiece.

Like young Hugo Drax :-P I too own this watch and it's so much fun to see the love for it. Not only in 3 Bonds but a frequent resident on DC's off-work wrist too. The blue dial is mesmerising. Great choice Harris!

Excellent job Harris! Great video and of course I would expect nothing less from The Bond Experience.

when things go back to some form of normal I'm getting myself either the 38.5mm version of this, or the 36.5mm Seamaster 300M. The Skyfall Aqua Terra is my favorite, but beggars can't be choosers. So glad I can live vicariously through David's channel and Harris' instagram!

Fantastic job gents and congratulations Harris!!🥂🥂

Sweet... I'm coincidentally wearing mine right now while watching this at work. It's no doubt a beautiful watch with that beautiful blue dial. Not many people even know Bond wore this in Spectre because Omega only mentioned it a few times in various publications etc, as obviously Omega promoted the heck out of the Seamaster 300 limited edition won alongside this Aqua Terra. They didn't really promote it much. He'll wear it again in NTTD too as evident by the pics of Bond in Matera! The Skyfall Aqua Terra is 38.5mm with the metallic frame around the date window while the Spectre Aqua Terra is 41.5mm with the Master Co-Axial and no metallic frame around the date window. Same blue dial though. Harris gets it all spot on 👍

Aqua Terra is my favorite Omega series. I actually really like the new versions too, picking one up this week. The date at 6 is different for sure but I like the new dial horizontal lines and the 8900 movement.

The Aqua Terra seems to be James Bonds private watch. I will get the 38.5 mm one, I think it is more elegant.

I definitely prefer the 38.5mm to the 41.5mm. It’s supposed to be an all around watch and that doesn’t work when a watch is oversized. Obviously, all a matter of perspective as the 41.5mm will look more proportional on a large guy. For me, if it isn’t a sports watch with a rotating bezel, I prefer it to be under 40mm. I don’t think the watch looked bad on the video. I’ve seen it irl a couple of times on smaller guys and all I could think of was how they should’ve gone with the smaller size. That said, be you. If you like the larger size, then that’s for you.

Those lines suppose to remind luxurious sail boat deck ,hence preferably should be horizontal.Anyway amazing watch.

I remember seeing Craig wearing that watch in adverts in the Nat Geographic early in his Bond career.

Quote, “I like to have a little more there”. Don’t we all my friend. Don’t we all...

Been on my list for a while. Love my Seamaster Professional, wanted it since Goldeneye. But want the Skyfall Aqua Terra Master. I prefer the date at the 3 o'clock window as opposed to the new 6. Harris, is that a black version of the Specter bridge jacket? Or is it just the exposure? I have the first version from JV but it looks a bit more blue when worn with the N Peal Moc neck.

I have the Spectre Aqua Terra, a watch that came out before the Spectre Seamaster, and was sold alongside it for a brief while... But it seems few are aware of it! I love it. The 007 style gun barrel rotor is the best part!

The quintessential wrist watch connected to the world of James Bond must definitively be the classic " time only " Rolex Explorer, as worn by British author Ian Fleming himself, a sportswatch he wrote about, intended for Commander Bond...

Love your channel keep up the great work

Love the vid! Can totally relate. Beautiful watch!

i have the 38.5mm with the polished frame around the date. I have fallen in love with this watch again.

What jacket is Harris wearing at the start? Absolutely love it.. great video guys!

Fleming wore a 36mm Rolex Explorer, which is thought to be what his Bond wore. This almost channels that more than the 39mm Rolex Explorer. Especially the 38.5mm. I like this a lot, may have to add this to my next watch list.

I think Bond would wear a 36mm Rolex Explorer as his everyday watch.

Wish they wopuld have made a small index at the 3 o'clock out side of the date Box. The Phylida Homage has this feature.

One of the most beautiful watches

Beautiful watch. The new model with the date at 6:00 is a big miss.

The Aqua Terra and the Planet Ocean have both appeared in 3 Craig Bond films but for me, as someone who owns both the skyfall Aqua Terra and the Planet Ocean 8900, where the Planet Ocean takes the lead is in Omega's marketing push for it and the fact that the it's the only 1 watch Craig has worn for a whole Bond movie from start to finish (Quantum Of Solace) but yes, the Aqua Terra is a phenomenal piece and the blue dial Aqua Terra was originallymade to match Craig's eyes. In any case, Harrison congrats on the aquasition. Also, at the start of the 007 everything or nothing documentary, the actor they used to portray Bond getting himself ready wears the skyfall Aqua Terra. As for the newer Aqua Terras with the horizontal lines, I'm not a fan.

great watch harris and hope you have lots of years to enjoy i, however i will say that it is slightly too big for your wrist so I personally would of gone for the 38.5 mm size (if daniel craig wears it clearly its not too small) its also very thick (basically a planet ocean without the dive bezel) so adding on an extra 3mm make it a bit of a beast on gentleman with more slender wrists.

Love that suede jacket!!!

I'm not a watch guy at all, but that watch is beautiful.

Just to clarify: The Aqua Terra from Skyfall is the previous version at 38.5mm with the frame around the date window and brushed center links. The Aqua Terra from Spectre / No Time To Die is the 41.5mm without the frame around the date window but with polished center links. So the watch in your video was only in two movies; not three. Also, while these watches are not well known among non-enthusiasts, they are well known among watch enthusiasts and collectors. The Skyfall trades at a premium over non-Bond Aqua Terras in the pre-owned market.

Correct. But it is still the same blue dial as the Skyfall. So it can in a way represent that blue one in the movie as well. Its the Aqua Terra model as a whole that is Bond's unsung hero in all his movies since Skyfall with all the Seamaster divers and PO's always overshadowing it including the upcoming No Time To Die.

Best to not have the date frame- it matches the PO dial that has no date frame.

David, love your channel, one of the things getting me through lockdown. These looks at Bond sartorial items and frugal Bond are without a doubt my favourite bits of your content, and your videos with Danielle helped me share my Bond nerdiness with my current gf. Just a quick pointer - appreciate you and the Bond community are looking to promote each other, but it's not until around 8:36 you say "...so tell us about this watch". I may check out dressing like Bond, but my feedback would be to keep the future videos on items focused on the item (short intro), and direct people to another video with a link in the description and shoutout for "more info" on community people. Alternatively, a timestamp in the description would help with skipping to the right place in the video. I am a fan, and no issues with guests, but did have to force myself to stay engaged 8mins just to begin hearing about the topic i came for. Might just be my laziness though :) No offense meant, just feedback as i really like your channel and would like to see it grow! Great watch, very sophisticated, I get many compliments on the homage that I own.

Harris could be a BOND VILLAIN. He has the look. I sear I didn't see the part where he was offered the Villain part before I commented the earlier comment.

Imagine turning up to Drax's gaff, built like for like, brick for brick based on some French chateau, and only getting offered a cucumber sandwich. What a miser. Drax deserved everything he got based on his hospitality skills alone. PB

Love IT !

I have the spectre AT great watch

Very nice watch

Very nice

Reference numbers, people. The unsung Omega is the 38mm 220.13.38.20.01.001 worn by Nomi.

tbh the daniel craig era watch to me is the aqua terra then the spectre 300m then the nttd seamaster

This suit looks better every time...

3:38 Sheriff Pepper lives!

Such a sleeper gem! I really feel it could be dressed up or down as one of the most versatile watches out there.

Great vid, David! Hey, I have an idea for your channel. Do one of Bond's meals. One of the really detailed ones from the books, (maybe is it License To kill that has the extremely detailed account of the lobster dinner? At the time, it was the longest account of a dinning experience except for Nero Wolfe) You could do it for real, or a dramatized version with actors. The important thing is to emphasize the details, as penned by Fleming.

I feel like the horizontal dial is better. But love the blue tho.

me personally I like smaller watches, but I think harris can pull of the bigger aqua terra

I’ll now remember the Aqua Terra as being the ‘Craig Era perpetual stalwart’. Very interesting video and a very cool, timeless watch guys👌🏻👌🏻

Ian Flemming's Bond would wear a Rolex Explorer 36MM ;)

41.5mm looks great on him, awesome piece

I don't think the lugs overhang his wrist. Obviously, It's a matter of personal preferences. I do wonder about the etiquette of wearing what is a sports watch ( with a bracelet) with a tuxedo. Somepeople would think it's going too far to wear one ( even with a leather strap) with any suit. Cheers.

Both from two different households shouldnt be over each others houses. 100,000 people have died cmon sort it out duuuhhmerica

Modern Omega watches are too thick. There's no reason for the AT to be almost 14mm thick while having only a 150m depth rating.

I very much disliked that movies drax. The book was so much better.

It’s not really unsung at all... It has been sung a lot, and Omega has plastered Bond ads of the Aqua Terra all over the Omega boutiques... The truth is it’s just a boring watch with the blue dial.
