hey just seen the film tonight and couldn't make my mind up what bond was wearing does any one have any ideas cheers
When he first gets 00 status he’s wearing the Planet Ocean ref. 2900.50.91. From the point he gets on the train to Montenegro he’s upgraded to the Seamaster Diver 2220.80.00.
We all know British author Ian Fleming had James Bond wearing a Rolex and driving a Bentley, later an Aston Martin... In 1967 Casino Royal ... a few Rolex Submariner watches can be seen... . . How Omega franchise got into Bond movies... .
He only wore the Planet Ocean in the pre title sequence and till the scenes in Miami and Bahamas. From Montenegro onwards, it was the SMP right till the end credits rolled.
Skyfall wasn't so bad. Right up until the Home Alone scenario at his ancestral home and yet M still died after all of that.... A waste. And I actually enjoyed Spectre. But yeah, Casino Royale is still the best of them all.
So basically Bond decided he liked the classic smp better than the PO. I couldn't agree more. Terrible interview with bivet though... I mean 1+1=3? Is cannabis legal in Switzerland? Something is clearly lost in the translation on that one.
"Worth more than the sum of the parts" is basically what he was getting at. "I'll give you more money so that you can make a bigger blockbuster, and with that we'll each make much more money than if I had given you the miserly sum you were asking me for".
