Following a brief TAG Heuer connection in ‘The Living Daylights’, Bond was once again seen wearing a Rolex in the 1989 release ‘License to Kill’, starring Timothy Dalton
Again, he returns to the Submariner line, although there is some debate about the exact model. The most likely contender is the Reference 16610, with date display.
The storyline that pitted Bond against the murderous Central American drug lord Sanchez was filled with action scenes involving a submarine battle in the Bahamas and a car chase with tanker trucks in the Mexican desert.
The watch was badly damaged during filming, but was later repaired by Rolex’s service department free of charge.
