Video Footage: 007 Rolex Submariner with Buzz Saw and Electromagnet

This Youtube video is much too good to miss for Submariner fans!

So in case you missed it in the thread below, here's a reprise of the Limited Edition 007 Bond Submariner with working Buzz Saw and Electromagnet, which featured in the film Live & Let Die:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VJE9FXMg_U

How much do you think this Sub will fetch at an auction?

Now, please confess; which of you Submariner fans is the lucky one wearing it in the video?

Do you think the guy in the video is Roger Moore? After wearing it in two films, maybe Moore decided to keep the prop for himself all these years. If so, I wonder if he still uses it to undo zippers.

Now we know the reason why Timothy Dalton, who came after Moore, had to wear a Sub with date. Dalton must have run off with that Rolex as well because Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig who came after had to wear Omegas. The producer simply got tired of retired 007's making off with the studio's Rolexes.

Somehow, I just don't think this particular Submariner is COSC certified.

Interesting footnote in so far that in real life (seen in many media interviews) Roger Moore for a longtime had a TT DJ on his wrist. I believe that his son Chris was photographed in Hello wearing a SS Sub. Prehaps that was THE WATCH!

Like everthing the say 'change is good ' but i don't think ditching the sub for a another watch just 'crashed and burned 007's image. The Rolli, will alway's be in my mind a 'original secret service' equipment!!!! people what do you think?

Based on the buzzsaw's power and thusly generated electrical field, would the watch have to be a Milgauss to keep time after use?
