Duncan Casey's Watch Collection: Omega NTTD Seamaster, Rolex Datejust, GMT, Seiko SKX007 & More
In today's #watchtalk episode I'm joined by actor, producer, writer, and watch enthusiast Duncan Casey on location in beautiful northern Italy. We take a look at his seven-piece collection, discuss how James Bond influenced his first and most recent watch purchase, why the Rolex GMT Master II Pepsi is his favorite watch, and why a Rolex Datejust holds a special place in his heart. We also discuss the motivation behind his Seiko SKX007 acquisition, and his personal connection with one of Squale's most prestigious and desired watches.

I purchased the same 'Bond' NTTD Seamaster last month. I bought mine on the NATO but now it's on a black rubber strap. It's so light on the wrist. I absolutely love this watch and It's such a talkative piece. Omega was granted special permission from the Military of Defence to use the logo. Definitely not stolen honor. I've never served in the military but I was a UK police officer for 6 years! Very enjoyable interview TGV. In fact, Duncan would make an excellent 'Bond'. Who agrees?
One of the greatest videos to date, TGV! Duncan is a gent, for personal reasons, he's a man of kindness, decency and good manners. The location, topic of conversation... stella stuff!! Thank you to you and Mr. Casey for sharing this. Hope we see more videos with you both in future. Meanwhile be well and I hope you take care during this nippy season. Highest regards - James ⌚

Spent two weeks in a villa on a vineyard in Tuscany a few years ago. Spent a few weeks in Scala on the Amalfi coast before that. Beautiful country, beautiful people. Enjoy TGV.

Fantastic video, TGV. Great to see you out and about! Gorgeous setting for a wonderful chat with Duncan! The conversation was riveting. Really wonderful to see such a comprehensive collection of pieces. The Squale story was FANTASTIC! Always fun to dive even deeper into Squale’s history (see what I did there). The SKX was a surprise as well! Thanks so much for such a cool and refreshing exploration of a riveting collection. Be well, gentlemen. Onward and upward, my friend!
I was like “ where have I seen him”. ERICA. One of my favorite games of all time, acting was on point across the board in that game, I’ve finished it like 9 times
I really love how humble he is, and you rarely ever see this nowadays. 😇⏳ Love this channel. 🌟❤
Duncan is the man! So glad you made this video. Thanks TGV!
Jesus, your Bond experience was exactly the same as mine, Dad watches a old Bond film like Goldfinger, it was "Nahhhh, boring..." Then GoldenEye came out, I became a massive fan and then realise that Sean Connery was the coolest guy ever. I also bought the Quarts seamaster 300 because of GoldenEye.
Duncan has been in over 20 movies. I am looking up which ones are available to stream. Great video and travel safe TGV. Thanks for such a great interview 👏
Love your videos with Duncan! Hope the two of you will discuss movies again soon, always a fabulous discussion!
Love this TGV, enjoy your trip!
What a brilliant video - throughly enjoyable. You have such a great presentation/interview style and great chemistry with Duncan. Really nice collection to run through too, and with some great stories!
It’s always a pleasure to see your notification. Keep up the great work! 👍
Beautiful scenery and company 👌 love the format of this one!
Stunning location sir. I'm very fortunate enough to have visited Lake Como a few years ago. Along with Lake Garda they are some of the most unforgettable places. Great talk with some brilliant watches (and a delicious looking Pizza 🍕 to boot!). Enjoy your travels 👍
Very nice like always! Thank you TGV and Duncan!
I was just watching some other watch youtubers and realised I needed the real deal. Welcome TGV.
Lovely interview, love this kind of chat. Also fantastically filmed! Beutiful lighting and angles!
What a beautiful conversation and scenery. Thank you
Great episode! Lake Como is beautiful and one of my bucket list destinations. Very cool interviewing actor Duncan Casey. He's one of those British actors I can see making really big in the future. Thanks for this one.
really enjoy the conversation and the whole setup. Cheers mate
Good evening TGV, I have been waiting for this Video!!! Enjoy your time in Italy! I love Lago di Como, last time I stayed in Nesso, and of course Inspent some quality time in Belagio. And great collection, by the way. Best regards!

Love this format. Great discussion and the scenery was exceptional.
Great balanced interview. Great genuine and honest collection 👏
Oh yessss! I just requested this the other week!
Lake Como, one of my favourite locations in Italy. Enjoy it! Fantastic on location video and with Duncan no less. An absolute joy. 👍
Gorgeous restaurant! I was there more than 20 years ago and still remember the view.

What a great guy and great collection of watches! Fantastic interview! Thank you TGV! I have the new co-axial Speedmaster sapphire sandwich and it’s gorgeous so that would be my recommendation.
Great interview, nice collection and great stories about them all, Duncan doesn’t just like watches he loves them. 👏🏻👏🏻
Incredible collection and video 👏 thank you 🙏 for all the great content TGV!
That was a delightful video with a gorgeous backdrop for sure. That Squale was the real deal. Nice collection!
Cracking video TGV. Great location, great conversation
Great to see Duncan back, top man.
Great to see you two watch guys and this wonderful Lago di Como sight !
Beautiful location! Felice di vederti in Italia! Great contents as usual, thank you for sharing! Lovely to see you rotating every rotating bezel on the table 🙂
Great video TGV! Duncan mentioned something interesting. He said first and foremost the NTTD Seamaster was made as a prop for a movie. He said, in regards to the 'fake patina' on it, it makes sense that if Bond is spending time in the blazing for fives years, his Seamaster would look like that. Thought it was interesting way of looking at it.
Absolutely excellent video 👍 thanks TGV
Very very good video! Two enthusiasts enjoying a chat about watches! Two thumbs up! 👍
Glad to see Val Verde has made it here 😁
Been a while since I watched one of your videos, don’t know why I waited so long. Great as always TGV

Oh a video from TGV. So I can't go to bed yet. Have a nice evening and best wishes from Switzerland
Superb video as always my man. Love the laid back style, personally I prefer yours over H's talking watches series. Hope the wines and watches style stay in future episodes. Be safe and take care. Ok ciao.
After such a long time unable to travel it must seem even more special. Savor every moment and thanks for letting us tag along vicariously.
So interesting. Really enjoyed this interview. Thank you.
Great video, just love it, great scenery as well!
Excellent work TGV, really enjoyed this, it reminded me somewhat of the “Talking Hands” watch channel videos. This is up there with your collaboration with “Grobknob the Troll” from a while back. Well done sir and keep up the great work, I wish you well. Two gentlemen of pure class,.
I’m a every now and then, pop in and see what’s going on with TUG fly on the wall timepiece enthusiast. Really enjoyed this informal à la Largo dive watch interview. Very classy and extremely refreshing.
Amazing interview!! Thank you
Was on this corner of Lago di Como 3 weeks ago now, a lovely place and I'm lucky to be able to live on the northern tip of Lago di Garda, so am rather spoiled with the Italian lakes. I have recently discovered this channel and it's starting to become a real interest. Salute
Loved the video and the interview format, more please. Duncan, your next chronograph should be the new Speedmaster Moonwatch.
Hey Tristano, Quality video. The setting and your guest are top class :)
A very enjoyable video. I was just thinking this morning that TGV is in Italy and said he wouldn't be posting very much and then this video made my day. Some beautiful watches and Duncan comes across as a top bloke. A chronograph totally out of left field, The Farer monopusher?
Awesome video! I have the speed master moon watch and absolutely love it. My next watch is going to be a diver and that squale is beautiful! Enjoy Italy, and the amazing food!
Can’t wait to sit down and watch this. I’m sure it will be great!
Great location, great collection, great conversation and looked like great food. Class👌
Great conversation!!
Wow, excellent! I must congratulate you T.G.V. He (Duncan) demonstrates to have a great taste looking at those Rolexes and Omegas, but it was awesome when he showed that Casio and SKX007 too!. A full watch knowledge could not admit these two absences!. Thank you once more. Saludos!!
That’s a great video, really enjoyed it.
Ooh that's a nice Squale! Nice to see it among his collection. Very cool stories. Nice collection.
Excellent episode!
Well time to add another place I want to visit to the list (I miss traveling). Great video once again!
super kool intro / keep up the great work and approach to modern mens fashion golf shirts i.e. britain winters !!!
I love this! Actually I have been thinking long and hard about getting my first Luxury watch and I got the NTTD Omega and I am so happy with it. I always wanted something that looks a bit retro, and as a huge Bond fan i just needed to. The Omega that Brosnan wore made me fall into the watch hobby so its fitting that my first luxury watch would have that connection.
Great video, lovely collection
Been enjoying every second of video. Thank you guys.

I don’t disagree, the original SMP’s were awesome, and are future classics, I even own a 2541.80, but I do love the NTTD, And I personally lust after one on a mesh bracelet.
Liked before watching, can tell this is going to pure an old school TGV style classic. Look after yourself sir!

That looks beautiful there. Enjoy the travels!

Great video... I love Italy... I' have been there in 2018. Cheers, TGV.
TGV you have to do a review video on that Squale! That watch is awesome!
Great video and what a location! Love the amount of time spent on the skx but I'm a total fanboy 💯. Chronograph... Maybe the new Omega 3861 moon watch? It ticks a lot of boxes. I tried one on the other day, honestly cannot stop thinking about it. Tudor BB chrono if water resistance is needed or a longines big eye would be great too.
