Can't believe that was 'found' at a car boot sale.
More importantly as its a one of a kind you would think the movie studio would have some accountability for it.
Cool watch.

I love it when stories like this show up! Thanks for sharing!
Back in 1965 they could only dream that the Bond films would become the phenomenon that they have become.
True, but that was the mid-60's we're talking about. The "collectables mentality" hadn't set in yet and the character "James Bond" had barely started to become a lucrative franchise. And as far as Pinewood Studios was concerned; along with set pieces and costumes it was just one of literally thousands of movie props in their art department's inventory. It wasn't even a working chronograph any longer...what value could it possibly have had?
