Portero is celebrating the 22nd installment of one of the greatest movie franchises in history this week. From martinis to Aston Martins to tuxedos, the likes of the world's favorite secret agent haven't been in doubt for decades. Another of his passions? Timepieces.

In the earlier film adaptations, a Rolex Submariner was worn by Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, and Timothy Dalton. Pierce Brosnan's and Daniel Craig's takes on our hero have both worn the Omega Seamaster.

I had a chance to see a preview of the film on Monday night, and if you're a fan of action, you won't be disappointed. The chase scenes are breathtaking and the overseas locations dazzle in both beauty and scope. Want to have a little piece of moviemaking history? Shop our superb selection of Seamasters to feel a bit like an action hero even while at home.
