Craig, 44, said that the action of nodding and winking simultaneously does not come naturally to him, reported Daily Mail online.
"The thing is, the nod and the wink in Bond didn't come naturally to me. I understand it, but I never wanted to mess up a situation by winking at the camera at the wrong moment because it takes the drama out of the situation," Craig said.
"However, that wink to the camera can be such a great release of pressure sometimes," he added.
The actor first played the famous fictional spy role in 2006 with "Casino Royale" followed by "Quantum Of Solace" in 2008.
He will next be seen playing the secret agent for the third time in "Skyfall", slated to release October 26.
The film also stars Naomi Harris, Javier Bardem, Ralph Fiennes among others.
