Rolex is famous for making these types of purpose-built watches-Submariners for divers or Explorers for mountaineers-and this Yacht-Master is a return to that ethos. "Best watch I've ever worn.” For Ainslie, Rolex even scrubbed off the date complication that appears on every other Yacht-Master. “Every little bit of weight that we can save helps us to go faster," Ainslie told Rolex Magazine. Titanium is incredibly light, which is important for someone in Ainslie’s line of work. This is huge freaking news in the watch world, because while other brands like Omega, IWC, and Richard Mille have experimented with titanium, this is the first Rolex watch ever made out of the material. This installment tied all of the Craigs other Bond movies together by introducing the iconic villain organization Spectre, which was controlled by Christoph Waltzs Ernst Blofeld. It turns out that Ainslie has been casually rocking a one-of-one Rolex prototype: a Yachtmaster in titanium.

Its fitting that an ex-naval commander would choose a Seamaster. But the movie’s title creates more questions than answers. To watch on a mobile device, you need to use the Xfinity Stream app. While M battles political forces to keep the secret service alive, Bond peels back the layers of deceit to reveal the terrible truth behind SPECTRE.
