Lot Essay

James Bond's Omega wristwatch features as one of 007's principal gadgets in the film's final dramatic sequence on board Eliott Carver's [Jonathan Pryce] Stealth Ship. Bond first remarks on the watch when he finds it amongst Wai Lin's [Michelle Yeoh's] secret arsenal of weapons and hi-tech equipment in Saigon. Bond spots the watch in a case with numerous others, picking it out and remarking: "This looks familiar".. he's told by Wai Lin "We've made some improvements... Later, on board Carver's Stealth Ship, Bond uses the 'adaptations' in the watch to detonate his self-made bomb which he sets off to facilitate the British navy to locate the Stealth Ship via radar.
