When the producers of the classic series looked for someone to play the iconic superspy and chose Daniel Craig for the role, many people were against the idea of casting a blond, blue-eyed, short, and overly muscular Bond like Craig. But look at how things have changed over the years!
Craig’s unique physical appearance has helped him find success in many movies, making him one of the most wanted action film stars in Hollywood. However, there’s one more thing: this actor is famous for his love for exquisite and highly expensive wristwatches.
1. Custom Rolex Submariner by Project X Designs
One day, the British customizer Project X Designs spotted Craig wearing a custom Rolex Submariner. They modified a 50th Anniversary Rolex LV Submariner from Craig’s collection, changing the bezel color, the crown guard, and the date magnifier to give it a more old-school vibe. The Project X Designs team only made 24 of these bad boys, and they all sold out in a matter of days.
2. Omega X Swatch Speedmaster MoonSwatch Mission to Neptune
What kind of collector would Daniel Craig be if he didn’t have a MoonSwatch, right? Many fans noticed that he was wearing the classy Omega X Swatch Speedmaster MoonSwatch Neptune at the 2023 National Board of Review Gala. This baby is not that expensive in the grand scheme of things—just a mere $260—but it still goes for around $1,000 on the secondary market.
3. Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean
Craig first appeared as Bond in 2006’s Casino Royale, wearing Omega Seamaster. The Seamaster, as the name suggests, can withstand a lot of pressure and will still work perfectly 600 meters underwater. You can probably find one on the secondary market for around $4,000.
4 .Omega Seamaster 1948
If you are wondering about the watch Craig wore in Glass Onion, it’s yet another Omega. His character, Detective Benoit Blanc in Knives Out, is rocking a cool Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Seamaster 1948. It’s a pretty slim watch, which is great for people who don’t have gorilla hands. Only 1,948 pieces of this vintage-looking watch were made, and if you find one, be ready to dish out at least $6,900 for it.
