Timothy Dalton's second and final Bond film is the one where 007 goes rogue. John Glen directed Licence to Kill, and Robert Davi plays Franz Sanchez, a Latin American drug lord who runs a country through bribery and murder while presenting himself as a legitimate businessman. He hosts dignitaries, wears tailored suits, keeps a pet iguana, and has people fed to sharks.

On Sanchez's wrist, visible as he handles that iguana, is a gold Rolex with a dark dial on a gold bracelet, the look of a Day-Date, the solid-gold model long used as shorthand for money and power. No prop guide documents the exact reference and the dial is not legible on screen, so the model is read from the gold case and bracelet rather than confirmed.
