Big Crown "James Bond" Submariner Explained

Cameron from Craft and Tailored published this awesome historical overview of the Rolex "Big Crown' Submariner, which is awesome!!!


In the photo below we see Sean Connery wearing his 'Big Crown' Rolex Submariner as he plays with Ursula Andress on the set of Dr. No.

We might want to change the nickname of the Big Crown to 'The Chuck Yeager." Speaking of Chuck Yeager, in several days I will be posting a deeply profound game-changing historical discovery regarding Chuck Yeager, so stay tuned...
