Top James Bond Villains & What Their Watches Mean: Rolex, Patek, Longines, Omega, Seiko & Breitling

[@George_Washington0855]

A true supervillain wears Daniel Wellington.

[@theurbangentry]

🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏 Thank you, Best regards, TGV

[@Parocha]

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHA!

[@chronocommander007]

Daniel Wellington is actually a great name for a villain. Daniel Wellington and his top henchman Hugo Mountbatten - I like that.

[@cagataycakmak2280]

LOL!!!

[@eazye619]

YES! Absolutely loving another Bond related video! Christoper Lee’s Rolex King Midas is my favorite Bond villain watch

[@Podcastage]

Two of my favorite things, watches and movies! Thanks for the awesome video TGV! PS: You would make an excellent Bond villain, but if you come for my watches, expect a fight.

[@theurbangentry]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 Duly noted, I expect nothing less! Thank you my friend. Always honored by your support. Best regards, TGV

[@hanscombe72]

I loved the fact that Alec kept his original seamaster through his descent into madness and rage to become the dark shadow of James Bond. The “ah - a new model” scene was awesome. I loved the opening scene of goldeneye. Where 006 and 006 were what we know now as special forces operators today.

[@manuelgutierrez6014]

Exactly, 006 had the "previous" 00-issued Omega Seamaster.

[@brianmason744]

Brilliant TGV I am grinning from cheek to cheek in reminisce of my childhood days watching the vintage bond movies on T-n-T.

[@TheCcmarine]

Also my favorite from these honorable mentions is the Longines Legend Diver!! The reissue of this watch is probably the only watch in their catalog that excites me and for good reason. It has a timeless looking dial and can be worn dressed up or as casual as you want. With the internal rotating bezel, dual crowns, gorgeous dial and compressor technology this watch is still amazing! Great video sir thank you.

[@jimmazurek5589]

TGV, this is one of your best, most informative and interesting videos ever. I can only imagine how many hours of work went into its production. You are a master craftsman in the field of short documentaries. Thank you very much.

[@politicaltruth2030]

You forgot Klaus Schwab from the evil WEF. The next real life bond villain. Definitely Blofelds sibling.

Omg YES!!! I can’t wait to sit down later tonight, have a snack, and watch this video with my full attention. Your videos are like movies, the production quality is out of this world, and your topics are always interesting!

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you so much, I deeply, deeply appreciated that, you are kind to share those inspiring words. Onwards and upwards my friend. Best regards, TGV

[@alexanderwolf5134]

I just got a Longines Spirit and I LOVE IT. You should check one out. I think Longines have really been making an effort these last yew years and to me it shows - I think they're starting to come back and some of their current watches are really helping to re-forge their identity. I include the Legend Diver and the Spirit collection in this.

[@thetruebatman4632]

I’ve had my eye on a blue Legend Diver… I don’t truly dislike any of their designs.

[@theaussiewhinger]

Add the new Ultra-Chron to that list of stunning recent Longines releases!

[@haratoo636]

Always interesting to see what watches pop up in older movies and compare it to todays lineup. The feel and look is truly different

[@rossfindlay7760]

This is a great topic for a video, thank you for all the great information TGV.

[@americanlegendswatches]

That Longines on the wrist of Mads really caught my eye in the movie itself, as did the red Michael Shumacher speedy on the wrist of the dealer of the card game!

[@Joe-xo3xy]

Bravo TGV, thanks for the content, was very educational; You merged reality (history) and fiction very well. I hope all of your work will be acknowledged. Some day, I will head back to your archive. Stay well

[@77cjam]

Great video as usual. Never even thought about the 007 villains wearing watches. May need to have to watch all the film's again just to take a look. Have yourself a cracking weekend sir 👍

[@Tayhull21]

[@ExpeditedProductions]

Fantastic, Tristano!!!!! Can't wait to watch this one! Absolutely fantastic idea. Can't wait to hear your breakdown of the watches of some of the villains of one of, if not, THE most entertaining movie franchise ever! Question though, is Ms. Galore a villain or does she become a heroine? Gotta admit her choice of watch was perfect! Thank you as always. Be well. Onward and upward, my friend!

[@pwilkinson714]

What a fun and informative video. Thanks!

[@RedwoodAggie]

This was an excellent video. I of course knew of many of the watches Bond was wearing from various videos and articles on the internet, but not what the villains were wearing. I didn't know Longines/Hamilton were also in these movies. I did know about the Breitling appearance in Thunderball. Very nice work here.

[@vincesacca5025]

Your videos are always captivating and enjoyable to watch. You bring a real educational experience and pleasure. 10/10/22.

[@watchmewatch9]

Great stuff as usual TGV. Le Chiffre was a great recent villain for sure. 👍

[@alexanderdylanthomas1891]

Great video TGV! The literary Hugo Drax wore a “plain gold Patek Philippe on a black leather strap”, although the book did not take place in space unlike the film… So perhaps you are right, the gold dress watch is the ultimate Bond villain watch. Keep up these fantastic and entertaining videos!

[@theurbangentry]

Such a great choice for him, thank you Alexander! Very much appreciated. Best regards, TGV

[@maxleonardhulsenbeck5837]

Little note to the mention of scars at around 18:00: the fencing was (and is to this day) not exclusive to military academies but is practiced by fraternity students at all German universities. For example the depicted Otto Skorzeny got his scars from a total of 13 Mensuren while being a student of mechanical engineering at the (civilian) TU Wien, quite a while before becoming involved with any state organised form of military

[@mattys1467]

Watches and James Bond, great topic for conversation 👏 👍 Your mention of Sean Bean and Sharpe got me recalling just how great an actor and a series they are.

[@NW-lj6oo]

Great video and a really good look into a particular genre of film making that is synonymous with a few brand, particularly Omega and Seiko. It makes me wonder how the product placement ‘industry has evolved and what sums would be achievable these days?

Awesome video. I love mixing in movies and other subjects with Watches. I especially love the Seiko in this video. Because SEIKO IS KING !!!

[@nkonig1]

It’s Ellipse not Eclipse. Slip of the tongue I assume! Sorry to point it out. Great video as always. Mentioning Inglorious Basterds reminded me of that viewing experience. One of the best I’ve ever experienced. Fully packed screening in the Beckenham Odeon and not a single sound from the audience the whole way through, it was pure cinematic bliss. The whole audience were captivated by the numerous tense scenes. I’ll never forget that night.

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you so much. Haha, my dyslexia strikes again! 😂😂 Best regards, TGV

[@francmaurici9973]

Tristano, well done bro, bravo! I always look forward to your unique approach to each video, you are an incredibly talented amazingly odd man indeed, to spend a day viewing the world through your eyes would make for a meticulous scary suspenseful historical 70’s style neo realist 4D viewing experience, sadly as that is in the making and Netflix negotiations continue we need to satisfy ourselves with these lovely slices ! Mille grazie, Dr Francesco ( graduate evil business school class of 2015)

I so very much enjoyed this. I have been a movie enthusiast for as long as I have been into watch collecting. I especially enjoyed seeing Christopher Walken playing Vincent Coccotti in True Romance. All things aligned for me here...being of Sicilian heritage, a huge Quentin Tarantino fan and a lifelong collector of timepieces. Bravo, Tristano, very well done as always.

[@pigsydney]

A very good episode,I have not thought about the villains watches,only their evil lairs.Some of which are quite fantastic,such as Blofeld"s Baja California house, The Elrod House, from Diamonds are Forever.

[@mclaughlinja1995]

Fantastic video. Here’s a fun question - what watch does Col. Hans Landa wear? You can see him wearing an elegant, slim rectangular dress watch in the “Strudel” scene. I’ve seen speculation that it’s a Gruen Curvex or IWC Cal. 87.

Thanks for that video. There was a French company by the name of Solex, nowadays Magneti Marelli, and they made first radiators and later carburetors and mopeds, I believe.

[@martinrussell8580]

Also in the very next film the villan was called stromberg another carburetor maker .

[@shawnmungur4875]

If memory serves me well Sean Bean said after looking at Pierce Brosnan's watch said, "I see they have a new model." So I'm guessing yeah? Double 0's were issued Omegas.

I think it is a bit unfair speaking of Longines. Lately they starting to do things right again I think. Ultra-Chron, Spirit Zulu Time, and I mean there is no alternative for the Master Collection Chrono with Moonphase and annual calendar. At least for the money….

Great timing I just finished rewatching all the Bond movies from Dr No to Die another Day. I plan on finishing Craig movies after a bit of a break. All of them are available on Amazon Prime Video.
