Bond's Omega Seamaster divers watch, with a couple of Q-Branch
features.
Use
"Goldeneye": When Bond and Natalya got trapped inside the ICBM
train, surrounded by one-inch thick amour plating. As Natalya
pounded
away at
a computer keyboard trying to trace Boris' location, Bond activated
the laser cutter on his watch and proceeded to cut a manhole
in the floor of train. With seconds left, Bond ripped Natalya
away from the computer, the two dived through the man hole, and
ran from the train seconds before it exploded. Later in the mission,
Bond had a series of magnetic mines activated in Trevelyan's
HQ, and his watch could arm or disarm the mines. Trevelyan, being
a former MI6 agent, knew about Bond's watch, he took it from
Bond and disarmed the mines.
"Tomorrow Never Dies": Bond picks up a new version of the Omega
courtesy of Wai Lin's stock of gadgets. Bond uses the detachable
remote detonator to make a booby trap with a grenade and a glass
jar. When Bond needs a diversion after Carver shoots his hostage,
Gupta, 007 triggers the detonator causing the grenade to pop
free and self-arm.
"The World Is Not Enough": Bond first uses the watch to illuminate
the inside of the inflated bubble ski jacket whilst himself and
Elektra are trapped in an avalanche. The watch is useful later,
when
stuck in an inspection pit in the nuclear bunker, Bond fires
the piton wire to jump 50 feet.
Specs
An Omega Seamaster with blue face and bezel. Modified to incorporate
a high-power laser diode, capable of cutting through two inches
of steel. It was also equipped with a button used to arm and
disarm the magnetic mines.
Wai Lin's gadget masters incorporate a detachable detonator
into the watch for "Tomorrow Never Dies". Bond notes they have
a newer version than his Quartermaster at MI6.
For "The World Is Not Enough", the watch is fitted with a miniature
grappling hook which includes a 50 foot high tensile micro filament,
able
to
support
800 pounds.
Bond puts this into use to escape a potentially explosive situation.
Q-Branch has also incorporated dual high-powered lasers into
the design, and the casing is made from titanium.
