    Great guy, fantastic bond. Took JB back to his roots, a disturbed and deeply troubled character with conflicting emotions. Touché to him, played the original Bond to the novels. And portrayed him brilliantly on screen. We should be thankful he brought bond back to the forefront. Hats off to him.

      @@qchang09I mean let’s not beat around the bush, Craig is still an Omega ambassador and I’m sure in his contract he can’t be promoting Rolex watches. He has plenty of very special vintage Rolex pieces and even has a Submariner 6538 that Barbara Broccoli gifted him. On a Connery nato at that. Also has a Paul Newman 6263 Daytona. Another great and very noteworthy vintage piece. Also has a custom Submariner project X which is super rare and cool. My point is he has plenty of watches outside of omega to talk about.

      I think all of the Bonds were like that. Connery was definitely a bit of an outlier amongst them for his brashness and confidence, and not in a bad way, but in general I think it is just part of the British mentality to be humble.

      He’s an actors actor. Think Christian Bale. He loved to act but hates the fame that comes with it. He’s know to hide himself in public by always wearing a hat and sunglasses and even growing his beard and hair out when not on a film. He’s also known to not be a fan of interviews for film promotion and doing many red carpet events. Usually just what he’s contractually obligated to do. Here he’s having fun because he loves watches and you can tell he enjoys talking them. He’s also known to enjoy fans who are very kind and more of the soft spoken type. He doesn’t like people who draw attention to him or themselves and I can understand that. He does seem like a genuinely nice guy though.

      Despite what people think, actors don't get them for free. If a watch brand is associated with a film the cast and crew usually get a discount. (Hamilton give 40%, Omega 30%). When a watch brand picks an actor to be an Ambassador for them they usually pick actors who already wear their brand. (I work for a tv/film production company that's how I know)
