Omega Seamaster James Bond watch, a'la Bond girl

Other than the image of Mrs James Bond Watches a couple’a years back at the National Watch & Clock Museum, I haven’t done that many James Bond watch photos that include people.

I made this one working with a model on an unrelated project about 6 years ago.

The desired effect was that wonderful allure Catrina Murino brought to the Omega brand when traveling on behalf of that watchmaker after Quantum of Solace.

The confident sexiness of a woman wearing a man’s watch.

Same model as worn by Pierce Brosnan in his final 3 outings as James Bond, in Tomorrow Never Dies (Eon Productions, 1997), The World Is Not Enough (1999), and Die Another Day (2002).

The background is a nondescript patterned suit coat jacket, although I make no claim in tying it to anything screen-worn.
