Any time that a piece of movie memorabilia is put up for auction, it is likely going to make the press. This is especially true when that piece of memorabilia comes from the James Bond series, which remains one of the most iconic film franchises in the world 60 years after its founding. Thus, the excitement that an actual Omega Seamaster James Bond was up for sale was a story that Rubber B simply could not ignore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below, we will not only talk more about the Omega Seamaster James Bond in question but about the important history that watches have played in the James Bond franchise over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the History of Watches in the James Bond Films?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Long-time Bond fans know that Bond\u2019s watch is an important and immediately recognizable part of the storied secret agent\u2019s overall image. This precedent was actually set well before the premiere of the first film, Dr. No,<\/em> back in 1962. In the original novels, Fleming took great care to describe Bond\u2019s appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part of this included a mention that Bond always wore a Rolex, which was a reflection of the author\u2019s personal tastes, as he had been a fan of the brand for many years at that point. Sean Connery wore a Rolex Submariner in that very first film, and for many years, Rolex was the official watch of choice for James Bond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

However, in the 1990s, the Bond series underwent a massive overhaul. The franchise had been struggling fiscally for quite some time at that point, and it was determined that if this next Bond film was not successful, the films were likely to stop being produced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The costume designer for the film Goldeneye, Lindy Hemming, decided that Bond needed to be updated a bit in order to help him continue to be relevant. One of the ways she chose to do this was by changing his watch from a Rolex to an OMEGA Seamaster, a choice that has been continued in the films since the 1990s. This was a reference to the fact that Bond is actually a Naval officer, a fact that the films have only lightly touched on but was more prevalent in the books.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which Movie Did This Omega Seamaster James Bond Appear In?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is a particularly special watch, as it was worn by Daniel Craig in 2021\u2019s No Time to Die<\/em>. This was a historically significant film for a number of reasons as far as the film franchise is concerned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first is that it was the 25th<\/sup> entry in the series, and the second is that it marked the final appearance of Daniel Craig as the world\u2019s most famous spy. As a result, the film was extremely successful financially and was critically well-received as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Can You Purchase the Omega Seamaster James Bond?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The watch is being auctioned off online by famed auction house Christie\u2019s. In addition to the watch itself, the winner of the auction will receive a signed certificate of authenticity by Craig himself. All of the proceeds of the auction will be donated to the charity Time\u2019s Up UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
