\u201cBond, James Bond.\u201d<\/p>\n

There is perhaps no scene more iconic in 20th-century movie history than the one in which Sean Connery, introduces himself as Agent 007, in 1962\u2019s\u00a0Dr. No. What followed was decades of fascination with Bond — one that put fashion, cars, and yes, watches, on the map.<\/p>\n

The screen legend, who passed away last month at the age of 90, will forever be remembered as the first \u2013 and many say the best \u2013 James Bond. Inextricably linked to his stint as Bond, are the watches that he wore in the movies and which, in the minds of moviegoers, have forever associated 007 with great timepieces.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

ROLEX SUBMARINER ref 6538:\u00a0the original Bond Submariner<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

This is the watch that accompanied Sean Connery in the first four of his Bond movies, and is the watch most associated with the actor.<\/p>\n

The James Bond Submariner, as it is now called, is distinguishable by its \u201cBig Crown\u201d or large crown with no guards and the luminous pearl on the red triangle at 12 o\u2019clock. While it comes with a steel bracelet, Connery wore it with a NATO strap.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
