THREE ROLEX WATCHES IN MOVIES
ROLEX SUBMARINER IN DR. NO (1962)
James Bond has as many watches as he has girls, but the only brand Bond creator, Ian Fleming, mentioned by name in his books is Rolex. Sean Connery wore a Rolex Submariner with a black dial in the first Bond movie.
ROLEX DATEJUST IN THE COLOR OF MONEY (1986)
Paul Newman forwent his signature Rolex Cosmograph Daytona for the Rolex Datejust in his turn as a nine‑ball pool master in a performance that won him his first Oscar.
ROLEX DAY-DATE IN GLENGARRY GLEN ROSS (1992)
The Rolex Day‑date is also affectionately known as “the president’s watch” to collectors because it was reportedly the timepiece of choice of American president Lyndon B. Johnson. It certainly befits Blake, a hard‑nosed real estate agent played by Alec Baldwin in Glengarry Glen Ross.
