IIRC, the first time somebody posted about this, the seller was asking £50k for the lot.
:shock:
Still wildly overpriced.

Selling all together seems a little optimistic (as does the price, to me at least)

Must've missed the last post. Even the opening bid of £30k seems over priced.Originally Posted by Bravo73

Agreed.Originally Posted by danmiddle2
Besides the price it's a nice collection though.
whoa, expensive!
Perhaps the seller should give Dell Deaton ("Strategist. Dad. Christian. James Bond watch expert") a call... :D

Wildly optimistic seller :shock:
No one would really pay that amount for it, surely.
I find this a pretty awful looking watch too.
Nice to see he has taken the time to write a detailed breakdown for his 30k
£££ for sure way too much :shock:
I agree. Just my personal tastes, but I think that all of the non "Bond edition" versions of Bond watches look better (if that makes sense).Originally Posted by onlynik
The way I think about it - James Bond wears the one which is not a Bond edition... so if you have 007 aspirations, then it's better to get the regular version.
wow, quite a mark up in price!
Surely no one will buy these? :shock:
Can't be much more than 10k new were they?
Bloody hell :shock:
Solvent abuse, a very real problem :D
Thats got to be no more than £15k for the set.
And as for shiny old boxes....the last one I had took half the house :roll:
Oh dear, delusional...
dreamer.
At least you get some old Omega Lifetime issues and an Omega lanyard as a bonus. :lol:
Pfft, no thanks
He's dreaming

For me, it's the box that basically makes it a collection - without it, it's just some nice Omega's.
Methinks he's mates with the box maker and thought (Billy Joel voice) "I want that eaaasy, eeeasy money, I could get lucky, thing could go rii-ee-iight.."
can't be serious, can he?
Someone who lies about the little things will lie about the big things too.
Sorry no chance if its Omega. The Omega bond watch was too naff and way too commercial imho.
What surprised me (apart from the price) was the run length of these "limited" editions such as 10,007 ?
A Porsche Boxster and a Seiko would do me fine for that money.
Only a Boxster for £45k? You could get a great used 911 or even an AMV8 for that money.Originally Posted by Scrubnut
Well, after I bought the Seiko I would only have £44850 left....could I still get a 911? :wink:Originally Posted by danmiddle2
Hmmm maybe he forgot to say they were the actual bond watches with lasers and explosives :)
Now that would be worth £45kOriginally Posted by Lukea
I think so, you could even get a "proper" 911Originally Posted by Scrubnut

Sure not for me thanks....
5 watches for 45k...so that's 9k each plus a box and some tat. Be nice to have though for 15k or less as mentioned before.
Ridiculous. The SMP's are worth 1500 pounds or near that mark. PO's 2k-3k possibly?
And so we see yet another by-product of the dangerous mix of strong powerful medication and eBay
If I had £45k to spend on watches, I would have an absolute field day. I would get a couple of omega bond watches, SMP and PO but that would be all I needed and definitely not the face with the horrible bond gun barrel motif, and fill in the blanks with a selection of Rolex, IWC, Panerai etc
The display case looked nice though!
Not keen on the Bond watches, cheapens the brand IMO.
I would suggest he has sobered up a little. Bidding now starts at £18,000 Interesting to see if anyone does make a move at that price .

Nope, still about 2.5-3x over priced. And the Sub has disappeared.Originally Posted by itsgotournameonit
I'm no expert but the whole package probably isn't worth £8k. It would sell reasonably quickly at £6k.
But he still thinks that somebody is going to spend £35k. What a dreamer!
