The number 7 on the date disc is in the 007 font, and a secret number 50 is hidden in the luminescent material of the 10 o’clock hour-marker – a reference to the 50th anniversary of the James Bond film On Her Majesty's Secret Service. 18K yellow gold is used for the hands, hour-markers and Bond family coat-of-arms at the 12 o’clock position. Its centre is exactly 9mm in diameter (same size as the 9mm bullets from the famous Walther PPK gun). The watch has a black ceramic bezel with a white enamel diving scale, as well as a spiral-brushed black ceramic dial, which has been laser-engraved with a gun-barrel design. With only 7,007 pieces available, the 42 mm watch has a black rubber strap and features an 18K yellow gold plate on the side of the case, engraved with each Limited Edition number. The first edition was the Omega Seamaster 300M James Bond Limited Edition Co-Axial Master Chronometer 210.22.42.20.01.004, with stainless steel case. There have been a few variations of the watch, including a stainnless steel 'standard' version, a yellow gold version, an expensive and rare Platinum-Gold version and an extremely limited Neiman Marcus Platinum version (only 7 pieces made). In 2019, Omega released the Omega Seamaster 300 James Bond Limited Edition Co-Axial Master Chronometer to celebrate 50 years of On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969) and its enduring partnership with James Bond.
