Watches that appear in this series really are what I consider “hidden treasures”, that is to say models that I am confident could tempt more buyers, if only they were provided a second chance at more exposure. For this first entry, I’m going big (literally, more on that later…) with something from my own collection: a watch from a powerhouse brand, boasting a world-class movement with multiple complications, and very robust performance specs, all wrapped up in a design package that add up to a piece I believe would be worthy of a “Bond Watch” title.

Let’s now unearth the Omega 231.10.43.52.06.001, known more manageably (but only slightly) as the Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M Co-Axial Chronometer GMT Chronograph 43mm.

Am I just old fashioned and out-of-touch, or is the Swiss Army Knife indeed still relevant in today’s marketplace as part of an everyday carry loadout?
