3 James Bond watches that made the headlines in the past

1. Dr. No – Rolex Gruen Precision 510

Rolex Submariner Ref. 6538 007

Played by Sean Connery in 1962, Bond is seen wearing under-the-shirt cuffs. It is more suitable to wear a tuxedo or nicely tailored suit. The watch was kept in the dark while fans were still figuring out what kind of watch it is until Bond watch researcher Dell Deaton found out that the watch is none other than Gruen Precision 510, 40 years after it first appeared in the movie.

2. From Russia with Love – Rolex Submariner

Another movie with Sean Connery with a new adventure and a new enemy to defeat. He was seen rocking the classic premium Rolex Submariner. At that time Q had yet to convert these watches into a smart ones with weapons in them. This watch was just introduced with just a face dial. Who knew even in the 60s that Rolex would become such an integral part of Bond movies? 

3. Goldfinger – Rolex Submariner (revived)

In Goldfinger with Sean Connery as bond. A scene when Bond rolls up his tuxedo sleeve to show the legendary submariner in full swing in a leather strap showed a partnership with the brand for once and all. While the bond girl in the movie sported the iconic Rolex GMT Master Reference 6542, a fab aviation watch.
