Red Grant's gold watch

Red Grant's gold watch
ModelGold calendar watch



The bulky gold wristwatch Red Grant wears on a well-used brown crocodile strap in Ian Fleming's From Russia with Love (1957) carries a sweep second hand and calendar windows, and Fleming uses its flashiness to mark the assassin's vanity; Bond appropriates it after his own Rolex is destroyed. Fleming names no maker, and although collectors have tried to match the description to mid-century gold calendar watches, including Girard-Perregaux's, no documented reference fits the text. (WatchProSite) It is cataloged here on Fleming's description alone.
