This video captures what is only the second time in history that Ian Fleming's original James Bond watch has been shown while ticking in public display.

It's also the first ever appearance of Fleming's Rolex 1016 Explorer along side an Omega 2201.50 Seamaster Planet Ocean, identical to the one worn by Daniel Craig as James Bond in the most recent Eon Productions 007 film, "Quantum of Solace."

This special presentation was part of a fan enthusiasts weekend held at the National Watch & Clock Museum, as just one of the planned get-togethers in conjunction with the "Bond Watches, James Bond Watches" exhibit, running June 18, 2010, through April 30, 2011, in Columbia, PA.

Ian Fleming family members graciously loaned the author's original and only James Bond Rolex wristwatch to the Museum for this first-of-its-kind display of all known 007-related wristwatch brands. Omega wristwatch courtesy Lewis Jewelers, Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Dell Deaton, author-creator of JamesBondWatches.com, is Guest Curator.
