What kind of watch did James Bond wear?
James Bond has worn several different watches and various watch straps, with each model reflecting the character's style, sophistication, and functional needs for his missions. In the original novels, Ian Fleming described Bond wearing a Rolex. Fleming himself wore a Rolex Explorer, which is believed to have influenced his choice for Bond. Since 1995, 007 has worn an OMEGA Seamaster.
What NATO strap did James Bond wear?
James Bond famously wore a Rolex Submariner in Goldfinger (1964), accompanied with a navy blue, olive green, and red-striped NATO watch strap replacement. But… it wasn’t technically a NATO watch band, as they were not officially introduced until 1973. However, it was almost identical to some of the best NATO watch straps we have for sale in our UK webstore.
What defines a James Bond Watch Strap?
The James Bond watch strap is a watch strap that was either worn by James Bond in the movies or inspired by his style. 007 is known for his impeccable taste and his ability to adapt to any situation. He often changes his watch and strap depending on the mission, the location, and the occasion. Sometimes it might be leather, but mostly, he wears NATO style.
The most recently recognisable James Bond watch strap is the black and grey striped NATO strap that Daniel Craig wore in Spectre (2015) with his Omega Seamaster.
This strap, also known as the Bond NATO or the 007 NATO, is a simple and durable nylon strap that can be easily swapped and adjusted, combining the key benefits of the standard NATO watch strap with the style of our favourite British spy.
Other popular James Bond watch straps are the 'No Time to Die' Bond NATO Strap in Black, Grey and Gold and the 'Goldfinger' Bond Strap in Black, Green and Red. Sophisticated and elegant, they add a touch of class and modernity to any watch.
