good choice
I'm a Living Daylights guy, but YOLT is objectively Bond at its peak. 1960s, Connery, Blofeld, volcano lair, tons of gadgets, ninja army, cameo by Shane Rimmer, great theme song. What more could you want?

That quality of underwater video was new and expensive. They had to get their money's worth.

how much did you like it?
if you loved everything about it, watch the other Connery Bonds from the 60s. go ahead and start with Dr. No and go through them. Dr. No kinda shows its low budget, but it's quite impressive and holds up.
maybe you didn't think it held up to its reputation and wanted more from it
if you wanted a more down-to-earth spy story, do From Russia With Love
if you wanted more spectacular action and stunts, watch You Only Live Twice or The Spy Who Loved Me
if you are more of a comedy fan than an action fan, watch Diamonds Are Forever or A View To A Kill

I consider it top 3 with goldfinger and goldeneye

Not sure exactly why slower scenes with a lot happening in them can be better than a simple (yet hard to photograph) action sequence. When I think of Thunderball or Dr. No, it's the subtle set-ups and payoffs that really stick out in memory. For instance when Bond waits behind the door in Dr. No, there's nothing quite like it.

The best pre-title sequences are ones like From Russia With Love or Casino Royale. Thunderball's pre-title sequence is a fakeout because it's all action and the movie itself is a bit more understated than that would indicate. Even Goldfinger, the comedy, opens with an understated pre-title sequence where the director doesn't cut back to show the explosion he just set up, instead the story is Bond lighting a cigarette and intruding on some chick who double-crosses him. After Connery left, they began overdoing the intros.

I think it sets up one of the most basic character ironies for James Bond; he's a professional but he has a weakness for women; he's corporate but also a bit of an aesthete (the Craig era nullified this). It's better when they don't even need to underline this with dialogue because we can see it in quiet moments. The central irony of a spy who likes people but kills them for a living is really a fine line to walk, but the Connery and Moore eras emphasised that he was never the Terminator. The notion that he's playful and creative but also has a more obvious achilles heel than the cold-blooded antagonist makes the contrast more fun. At least I think that's what they were going for.
