Welcome to the EYES ONLY newsletter.

This week saw some of the most exciting Bond news in a long time: the title, trailer and images for the new James Bond video 007 First Light. The game, which will be released in 2026, will feature an original, stand-alone story about a young (26 years) James Bond moving his way up at MI6. The trailer shows a lot of familiar Bond brands including an Omega Seamaster 300 Chronograph watch on a Nato strap.

We also got a look at the first Daniel Craig James Bond 1/6 scale figurine, which will be available in 2026.

Pierce Brosnan is unstoppable and will star in The Thursday Murder Club, in which his co-star Helen Mirren will drive a James Bond car.

And finally check out my latest Instagram Reel in which I take a closer look at the Univex 6538 watch, an homage to Connery’s Rolex from Goldfinger.

WATCHES

Univex ultimate Bond watch homage

Univex watches has recreated Bond’s Goldfinger watch as close as possible to the original Rolex 6538. It comes with a nylon strap very similar to Bond’s watch (it’s even a bit too small, just like the strap seen in the film).

The watch features a 8mm big crown, 38mm case, Acrylic crystal, non-ratcheted bi-directional bezel (no clicks) and hand-made, hand-lumed gilt dial.

The UE6538 will be available starting Sunday June 8th 2025 at 12:00 noon EDT for $1,625.00 at univexwatchco.com

Watch my Instagram Reel for a closer look at the watch and packaging.

With thanks to Univex for sending me a watch with personalized serial number for review.
