Six decades. Six decades have passed since Sean Connery first played the British secret agent<\/strong> in Dr. No<\/em>, released in 1962. Even then, the actor proudly wore a Rolex<\/strong> on his wrist, which, according to rumours circulating around the film’s production, actually belonged to the producer, Albert R. Broccoli. The model was a Rolex Submariner 6538<\/strong>, nicknamed “Big Crown” because of its imposing winding crown.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Since then, each James Bond<\/strong> actor has worn his own luxury watch<\/strong>, as if to mark his brand and influence on the role with a subtle detail. Following in Sean Connery’s footsteps, actor George Lazenby, who played the British agent very briefly in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service<\/i> in 1969, wore a 6238 Rolex Chronograph<\/strong>, which was very popular in the motor sport world at the time. The one that appeared on the screen was unique in that it was redesigned at the request of the producers to incorporate a red second hand that also served as James Bond<\/strong>‘s secret compass.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n With Roger Moore in 1973, James Bond<\/strong>‘s watches changed their nature and became real gadgets thanks to the Q section. In Live and Let Die<\/em>, the Rolex Submariner 5513 worn<\/strong> by the secret agent is equipped with a very powerful magnet and its own circular saw. Roger Moore also wears a Hamilton Pulsar<\/strong> or a Seiko 0674 LC<\/strong> in The Spy Who Loved Me<\/em>, each with its own Q feature.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Then the performers, and therefore the watches, followed one another on the screen. In 1987’s The Living Daylights<\/i>, Timothy Dalton, who played a darker James Bond<\/strong> more faithful to the original character, wore a TAG Heuer Professional<\/strong>, before returning to a Rolex 16610<\/strong> in Licence to Kill<\/em>. Pierce Brosman wears an Omega Seamaster 300M Quartz Professional 2541.80.00<\/strong> in Goldeneye<\/em>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Since 2006, Daniel Craig has worn several different models, from the Seamaster Diver 300M<\/strong> to the Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M<\/strong> Master<\/strong> in Spectre<\/em>, always modified by the Q section. In No time to die<\/em>, fans will be able to spot three Omega<\/strong> watches. Bond<\/strong> wears the ultra-light Seamaster Diver 300M 007 Edition<\/strong>, new agent Nomi (Lashana Lynch) wears a 38mm Seamaster Aqua Terra<\/strong> with a black dial and matching NATO strap, while Moneypenny (played by Naomie Harris) wears a 27.4mm De Ville Prestige<\/strong> with a fir green leather strap. The luxury watch remains an indisputable element of the British agent’s personality, a reflection of the era in which he lives.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Read also > THE NEW WATCH BY H.MOSER & CIE: THE STREAMLINER PERPETUAL CALENDAR<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Featured photo : \u00a9 Watchfinder & Co<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row njt-role=”not-logged-in”][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Six decades.
