Bond watch.....no,.... but there are tenuous connections.
A couple of years ago I bought this watch on the used market and noticed that it had a 0007 serial number on the back. When I research it I found an article in Monochrome (5/10/2012)
about the Speake-Marin Resilience and lo and behold the pictures used had the same serial number as the one I was buying. So this must have been a watch used for photography and marketing for that year of the watch introduction.
Then I read that Pierce Brosnan was a brand ambassador for Speake-Marin after they met and discussed watches for a movie that Brosnan was a watchmaker and hitman. (Survivor)
So like I say. It's tenuous, but it's a 0007 and Pierce Brosnan was Bond at one point so there's the connection.
I know. Pretty weak.

And now something totally different
Said John Cleese at Monty Python flying circus, episode elephant 🎪 Blansky, you have an out of the box watch here. Pure and stylish. More members here with rare watches that have a rare origin? Thank you for sharing your watch.
A great and beautiful PSM with a nice number 🤗
I also have a few watches that are 7 or 007 (it just ended up that way )so if you ever want to pass this watch please let me know 😉
Beautiful!
I've always wished my wrists were large enough for Speake-Marin watches. The enamel dial with blued hands and finely finished rotor - just superb.
wow, always lived this piece
The piece IS!!! the Period before Peter(Speake-Marine) gave up ownership of namesake company ............ iconic in design , perspective, and over all message on timepieces , ie , the lugs dropping off , the rotor in the back, while maintaining detail ......
Yep pretty cool 007
I remember Peter showing me plenty of photos in Baselworld that they had taken recently with Pierce Brosnan. He was very excited and enthusiastic. We had good fun… Gold memories (like Goldfinger )
