Yeah, my wife and 18-year old son called me to come downstairs. When I did, they backed up the DVR and said, "this commercial is for you". I said, very cool....thanks guys!

I was staring at my phone when it came on, and my jaw dropped when I realized what it was. So well done IMO. Loved it! Thanks for posting the links Gerardo!

Glaringly absent were Sean Connery and Steve McQueen. But great commercial nonetheless.

I was thinking the same thing. I wonder if the absence of Sean Connery was due to 007 Copyrights or because 007 changed brands.

Should have included SC-era Bond just as a subtle jab at Omega.

What's funny is how much I loved the line at the end ("It doesn't just tell time..."), not realizing that it's been there tagline for the last few years.

I guess I need to start paying attention to their advertisements!

Just watched the commercial multiple times with my wife. We were trying to name all the movies! And also tried to figure out if all those movies won oscars or not (no is our answer)
