In the buildup to all this I saw a clip of Prince Andrew's wedding, which included a clear shot of his President bracelet.



Another watch note: when Diana died, the boys were allowed to take one memento each from her possessions. William took her Cartier tank watch.

I'm different from you...I much prefer the blue bond to the 2254. I think the blue color, the wavy dial, the skeleton hands, and bracelet make the watch far more unique than most black divers out there ( Rolex or Omega).

Prince William wears the Blue Seamaster. It suits him well, and it was picked up by Princess Diana. It's safe to say it will be his watch for life.

The Prince of Wales wears a Breguet & Prince William (the Duke of Cambridge) a full size Omega Seamaster. I don't know if it's a Co Axial because when I asked him, he replied "no it was a gift" and I didn't have the heart to repeat the question.
