Omega lists the reference as no longer in production. It is distinct from the black-dial Planet Ocean also worn in the film.
Which Aqua Terra did Daniel Craig wear in Skyfall?
The reference identified with the film’s blue-dial Aqua Terra is 231.10.39.21.03.001. Omega’s official product page confirms the reference and its specifications, while a specialist watch-history article makes the connection between that exact reference and Skyfall (Fratello Watches). Omega’s own film chronicle confirms that an Aqua Terra with a blue dial appears in the film, but the retrieved chronicle does not identify it by reference number.
“Skyfall Aqua Terra” is a convenient collector’s description, not a formal model name established by Omega in its film account. The model is part of the Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M collection.
How to tell it apart from the other Omega in the film
Omega’s 2012 Skyfall chronicle says Bond relies on two Seamaster watches. The Aqua Terra is the dressier-looking blue-dial watch; the other is a 42 mm black-dial Planet Ocean. Omega says both use Co-Axial calibre 8500.
#1 Best Overall
- Omega Seamaster Automatic Black Dial Men's Watch 210.32.42.20.01.001
- Aqua Terra: blue dial, 38.5 mm case, and a more restrained, dressier appearance.
- Planet Ocean: black dial and bezel, 42 mm case.
The shared brand and movement do not make them the same model. For identifying the blue watch, look for the Aqua Terra’s dial and case design rather than the Planet Ocean’s black dial and bezel.

Is the Aqua Terra 8500 still made?
No. Omega marks reference 231.10.39.21.03.001 as no longer in production on its product page. That status applies to this specific reference; it does not mean every Aqua Terra model is discontinued. Someone seeking this exact watch should expect to look at pre-owned examples rather than assume it is available new from Omega.

A listing should be assessed as a specific watch, not just as a “Skyfall” model. Check whether its reference matches 231.10.39.21.03.001, then compare the watch’s condition, service documentation, and included box and papers. Assess the seller’s reputation and authentication process independently. No current listing, price, or seller has been verified here, so availability and value need to be checked at the time of purchase.
