Rolex 6238s go at pretty dear pricing even without the provenance. Not too surprised by the pricing. Love to see these movie watches become available.

Once we get up towards these kind of numbers I'd rather have a Newman than Lazenby.

Buy it and then sue the auction house for over charging.

I'd like to find more photos of that watch. What name/number should I be googling? If a watch could talk, I could listen to that one go on for a while ;-)

I thought he made a decent " James Bond " although everyone else slated him in the role.

Personally I wonder is the least known Bond, as anything to do with what it will fetch at auction time?

Hasn't this been bought and sold a few times at auction over the years?

I don't think that particular Bonds watch would carry much in the way of bragging rights compared to the others.
