Inside Daniel Craig's Iconic James Bond Watch Collection | Dialed In | Esquire

[@jongoodman7448]

Fun seeing he’s a true Omega man. And in real life, a gentleman.

[@dennissourvanos737]

Wait to you see his Rolex collection.

[@Michael-4]

I think Omega would take a dim view of him if he pulled out a 5513.

[@dennissourvanos737]

Or a Milgaus, many Daytona's and Day Dates.@@Michael-4

[@williamxchau]

Just google it, he has been spotted wearing a Rolex many times before, at much much worse times than this believe it or not. I don’t think he’s a Omega man at all! But hey, business is business 😂

[@humphreybradley3060]

I met him in Afghanistan in 2012 when he was visiting British troops there. You’re quite right, he’s charming!

[@WellAye]

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.

[@goldencalf5144]

Bond wore Rolex in the novels...

Well said, excellent comment, I agree wholeheartedly 🙏

I love that Daniel Craig shows his passion for his collection of Omega. Proud to be their ambassador and wish he will be forever even after the Bond era. I love that he talks every watch that reminds him his personal memories that we never know!

Excellent, Omega is lucky to have him as an Ambassador.

[@qchang09]

pretty sure Daniel Craig has more to his collection, this is just what he chose to share

[@callumbutlergoat]

Would be cool to have seen an hour long Hodinkee version

[@gameroftheyear1000]

@@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.

[@Jasonwatches]

Hearing him giggle about the memomatic is wonderful! You can tell he truly is invested in the history and peculiarities of the watches he chose!

[@theplourde]

Daniel's voice is a lot gentler than I thought. I haven't seen many interviews with him so its a bit of surprise.

[@connor7162]

My favourite thing about this was that Daniel seems completely down to earth. With the amount of fame and money he’s had i can only imagine how easy it would be to get lost in the clouds. But he sounds like he still has a great concept of the value of things

[@woopert7]

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.

[@markr4189]

So grounded he wears an omega to the fun fair

[@rych7852]

@@markr4189When he was a kid! And it probably wasnt worth as much then as it would be today.

[@gameroftheyear1000]

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.

[@gogimemon]

Why is this so short? You had a rare opportunity to bring in Craig and discuss his watches, this should have been at least 20 minutes. You can clearly tell a lot of the footage was cut.

[@SpikeXtreme]

He was a great Bond,is a LFC supporter and a quality watch collector ..what a nice guy.

[@YouKnowMySteez]

I love that he picked the vintage and slightly damaged one over the rest because it has sentimental value associated with a specific time & place in his life. Beautiful.

[@younusimam-thesalamproject6340]

Wow had no idea Daniel Craig collected vintage Omega. These are some really cool pieces and you can tell he has a lot of passion. I want to see the rest of his collection, I wonder if he collects any other brands?

[@sdfilmproductions4193]

He has at least 5 Rolex, including a Paul Newman Daytona, a Sub, a couple Milgauss & a gmt.

[@sumalways]

He didnt show off rolex due to current Omega and bond partnership

[@IrishScribbler]

@@sdfilmproductions4193So what?

[@pacnik77]

I really connected with Daniel because my mom gave my dad a 1958 Seamaster calendar watch for his birthday I was 7 . I remember that day. it looked a lot like the one Daniels dad gave him for his 18 th . Dad passed in 1993 and she gave me the watch ... I just retired and bought myself a retirement watch, a Seamaster 300m professional chronometer with Titanium case and bracelet and I wind them both and the 1958 still keeps the time after 66 years. thanks for sharing meant a lot to me I was touched ...

[@robertp5123]

Wow….that was an amazing episode. Great to see Daniel’s timepieces. He definitely has a beautiful collection.

[@michaelpsions]

As a 300M owner, I can fully endorse Omega and Daniel’s desire to own and care for them. They are extraordinary timepieces and thankfully don’t draw the attention Rolex does.

[@2536528]

I was shocked to see he actually had to purchase many of them.

[@sdfilmproductions4193]

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)

[@Z06Wingnut]

@@sdfilmproductions4193 Omega in particular is pretty selective with their ambassadors. They must be established fans/owners of the brand and watches.
