Craig Follows Ian Fleming’s Bond Example
November 27, 2008
Daniel Craig, the current James Bond 007, prefers Rolex watches in his personal life. And the photographers managed to take the pictures of Craig wearing two different models by this brand: Rolex Submariner with a nylon strap NATO (one of such watches was worn by Craig’s predecessor – Sean Connery – in “Goldfinger” movie) and Oyster Perpetual in a steel case.

Although James Bond wears an Omega in the new films, Daniel Craig chooses to go against the grain of his producers and wears a classic Rolex Submariner 6358 to his interviews and in his personal life. Since Ian Fleming wrote in the original novels that his character James Bond wears a Rolex and Sean Connery always wore a Rolex Submariner 6358 in the early classic films, Daniel Craig pays tribute to these cultural icons by wearing a Rolex. At a recent GQ photo shoot, the entire wardrobe was styled for Daniel Craig, except for one key element: “Watch by Rolex, Craig’s own.”
Now is the time for the producers of James Bond to follow the lead of their star and honour the legacy of Ian Fleming and Sean Connery - Give 007 back his Rolex.
