James Bond Aqua Terra - Skyfall
Anybody seen the newish Blue dial Aqua Terra as worn by James Bond in Skyfall????Its strange really as all the Omega campaigns are showing Bond with the Omega PO however most of the film he switches to the Aqua Terra, Omega acknowledge this on their website but the campaign is all around another PO (Bonds third model in 3 films)Anyhow, I was not fussed on the AT however passing a few shops I must admit it looks great in the flesh so to speak!!Anybody tried or own one?? Not really much mention about this specific model amongst the tons of Skyfall threads

How my TRF paneristi friends feel about this one?
Thank you fro your opinions.
