Watches

Rolex Submariner 5513

Worn by George Lazenby as James Bond. Lazenby wears the crown-guarded, no-date 5513 on an Oyster bracelet through most of the film, from the pre-credits beach fight to the casino floor and the safe-cracking job at Gumbold's office. By his own often-repeated account, Lazenby bought himself a Submariner after seeing Connery wear one, part of a costume he assembled for the audition along with a suit ordered for but never collected by Connery; the story rests on Lazenby's retellings rather than any production record.

Rolex Chronograph 6238

Worn by George Lazenby as James Bond. Eon Productions bought this stainless Chronograph 6238 at Bucherer in Interlaken on 23 October 1968 for Bond's undercover stay at Piz Gloria as Sir Hilary Bray. The insert close-up shows its silver three-register dial and a red centre chronograph hand not found on standard 6238s, reportedly fitted at the production's request. It is the only Rolex chronograph in the Eon series; the screen-worn watch sold at Christie's London in December 2003 for £23,400. (Bond Lifestyle, Forbes)
