Hi Guys!! How many beautiful pieces together in this thread!!

IŽd really love if this thread could reach Mr Connery himself!
I bet he would really enjoy this homage to his acting career and of course to his great personal approach to the Bond character.

Thank you for your kind contributions to this thread!!
Kind regards, Abel.

Anyone else wish that James Bond would return to wearing a Rolex rather than an Omega?

Happy Birthday Mr. Bond! Here is my 14060 superimposed on a shot of Mr. Bond's Submariner. Not a great pic, but the best I could do.

I had the same thought, it would be great if he could see this thread.

If by some rare chance he is reading...Happy Birthday Mr. Connery! Thanks for bringing Ian Fleming's character to life in only a way that you could. For that I raise my glass of 007's other favorite libation(what's this "shaken not stirred" business?) and I wish that you have many, many more.
