That's the Bond you're referring to I take it? I have the quartz one (2221.80) and I think it's a great watch. The blue hue and the wavy dials make it a very interesting watch.
However, the looks of the bracelet is a bit of a love/hate and is not for everyone. It is super comfortable though I must say.
The bezel can be a pain to rotate (especially when dry) but I found it to be easier when submerged. Not sure how it'll be with gloves though. Definitely not as good as the Sub or the PO.
Mine being a quartz, the seconds hand don't always line up with the markers on the dial. Some people are utterly irked by this, some are not.
I do love the hour quick-set feature, makes changing timezones while travelling a lot easier (pull crown to position 1, rotating it leads to hours hand jumping in 1-hour steps).
But that means no date quick-set, and to forward the date, you have to keep moving the hours until you reach your desired date (ie 1 day = 24 steps).
Just FYI, I popped by IWC Pavilion a few days back - Mark XVI was going for RM11k. A used one was recently sold on MWF for RM9k.
Hope it helps. Happy hunting

Hey bro,
I own a Seamaster Quartz also.. In facts, it is really a nice watch for day to day use. RRP now is RM6,750. I think you can get around 10% discount. it is truly signature watch for Omega.
No regret as the RRP raise twice a year. Worth to invest early.

Just wondering, how reliable is [collector's time]?
Feedback from LYN member, quite reliable but the price is firm
