What: 007 Travelers presents: Omega Seamaster Diver 007 Commander's Watch Limited Edition
Where: Oy Osk. Lindroos Ab in Aleksanterinkatu 46, Helsinki, Finland 
When: 3 October 2017



007 Travelers is proud to present limited edition of the Commander's Watch. Thank you Antti Keisu for inviting us to see this beautiful watch.

The store in Helsinki has a new location near the old one. The new address is Aleksanterinkatu 46, Helsinki.

Omega Seamaster Diver 007 Commander's Watch Limited Edition is recommended by 007 Travelers.

Inspired by Bond’s rank and regalia, OMEGA has created the "Commander’s Watch". The timepiece salutes the ensign colours of the British Royal Navy, with touches of white, blue and red found throughout the watch, creating a suave and stately look.

Cased in stainless steel and with a polished white ceramic dial, the "Commander's Watch" features facetted blued skeleton hour-minute hands and varnished red second hand with “007” gun logo counterweight.




The wave-pattern screw-in caseback is engraved with Commander’s Watch, Limited Edition and the limited edition number. The see-through caseback reveals a rotor with 9mm bullet and decorative plate bearing the 007 and OMEGA logo, as well as the Calibre number.
It is presented on a 5-stripe blue, red & grey polyamide Nato Strap; and powered by the exclusive OMEGA Calibre 2507.

007 Food: Sushi breakfast

Food: Sushi breakfast
Bond book appearance: The Man with the Red Tattoo (2002)
Experience of 007 Travelers: Self-made


"She led Bond back through the busy market until they came to an outlying area that featured a few fresh sushi restaurants in rows of one-storey barrack-like buildings.
"Let's have a sushi breakfast," she suggested.
They went into the narrow place, which was about ten feet wide, and sat at the counter with several workers, still clad in rubber boots. Bond ordered several pieces of tuna, salmon and fish roe for them to share, along with a tekka-maki, a tuna roll wrapped in seaweed cut into six portions, and a kappa-maki, a roll stuffed with cucumber. Bond ordered extra wasabi to mix with the soy sauce, as he was not fond of raw fish. But he was willing to give it a go."
