21 September, 2018 | Daniel Craig gets drenched in OMEGA campaign, Bentley’s 100-year spread and the masterpiece that was almost gone in 60 seconds… All this, and possibly the most precise moon phase watch, in this week’s briefing.
Daniel Craig for OMEGA
OMEGA’s latest campaign for the Seamaster Diver 300M features a dapper but drenched Daniel Craig, who went swimming in a dinner suit to promote the watch’s adaptability.
The campaign, which blends black-tie sophistication with a sense of fun, captures the essence of the new Seamaster Diver 300M, which can take you from a formal occasion to the depths of the ocean without missing a beat.
