Posted by Team Boxwish over 1 year ago
2006’s Casino Royale introduced us to a new Bond – more brash, brutal and blonde than previous incarnations. In his debut outing as the famous double-O spy, newcomer Daniel Craig re-invigorated the decades old franchise and now, two years later he’s back to continue what he started in Quantum of Solace. However, despite a new actor in the central role the core character of Bond remains the same – simply given a 21st century makeover for a new generation of film lovers. If anything, Craig’s Bond is a return to the roots of Ian Fleming’s literary figure only with a few timely tweaks here and there. But one area in which he remains resolute is his love of gadgets.
Q and his workshop of weird and wonderful gizmos were relegated to the annals of history with CR, a state of affairs that don’t change in QoS, yet this break with tradition isn’t mirrored in Bond’s other gadget choices. Rather Bond stays loyal to brands that have long-served his spying cause such as telecommunications giant Sony Ericsson for his mobile phone and Swiss luxury watchmakers Omega for keeping an eye on the time. This focus on real and practical gadgets makes Bond more accessible and easier to emulate, and so as he flaunts his latest tasty techno treats in QoS we show you how to tool up like 007.
