While there are plenty of Hollywood actors who love glamming up with luxurious AAA Rolex replica watches, like Mark Wahlberg, only a handful of celebs in history have brought attention to certain limited editions and special models – and had the honour of the timepiece getting named after them in return.
From million-dollar Hollywood director James Cameron to the legendary Clint Eastwood and the late Sean Connery, here are four stars who have their names stamped on different types of Rolex editions and how these historic moments came to be …
1. James Cameron: Replica Rolex Sea-Dweller Deepsea “Cameron” D-Blue Watches
The famous Oscar-winning Avatar director has a great love for ocean exploration and even once mentioned that he made Titanic so he could use the movie production to fund his dive into the actual wreckage of the famous ship, per British Media.
In 2012, he took his love for the sea an extra mile further and set out on an expedition for a record-breaking dive into the deepest part of the Mariana Trench.
To help with his almost sci-fi-like mission, Rolex specially designed a watch for Cameron that was built to handle the massive pressure of the ocean, per Swisswatch Expo.
After Cameron successfully resurfaced from his solo dive, Rolex released the special edition into the market the same year, naming it the UK perfect fake Rolex Sea-Dweller Deepsea “Cameron” D-Blue Watches in honour of his expedition.

Actor Paul Newman wore this particular watch after his wife, actress Joanne Woodward, gifted him the special model, per Swisswatch Expo.

He brought attention to the Swiss movements Rolex copy watches when he was photographed on the cover of an Italian magazine while wearing it, as per Esquire. This particular model of Rolex then went on to be called the “Paul Newman” Daytona.

3. Sean Connery’s James Bond: Rolex “James Bond” Submariner Replica Watches
While the 1:1 Rolex fake watches is named Rolex “James Bond” Submariner and there have been many Bonds over the years who have worn it in the famous spy movie franchise, it was actually the late actor Sean Connery who put the dial on the screen and shone a light on it for the first time in 1962, when he appeared in the classic Dr. No – the first Bond movie ever to be made, per Wind Vintage.
The top replica Rolex Submariner 6538 watches then became known as the “James Bond” Rolex by watch enthusiasts and collectors alike. After Connery started this trend, many other Bonds who followed had a Rolex accessorising their wrist on screen, though not all of them were a Submariner and none of them were nicknamed “the Bond watch”.
4. Clint Eastwood: Rolex GMT Master Fake Watches
When legendary actor Clint Eastwood was at the height of international fame, he received a gift from T. Walker Loyd, who worked as a long-time executive of Rolex. The gift was the famous luxury super clone Rolex “Root Beer” GMT Master watches, as per Crown Caliber.
