It might be hard if I'm going to list down specifically all of the watches Bond had wore in the films, so, I'm going to just look at the brands of the watches, which watch Brand had delivered and gave Bond the best watches?

Rolex (the 60's, TMWTGG, LALD, TSWLM, LTK) - 20

Gruen (DN, DAF) - 20

Breitling (TB) - 20

Seiko (The 70's and 80's) - 20

Pulsar (LALD) - 20

TAG Heuer (TLD) - 20

Omega (The 90's, 2000's, 2010s, 2020s) - 20

    Don't think Gruen was ever confirmed.

    Seeing a third of the watch face isn't enough confirmation for many of us watch enthusiasts - I think if you asked about on AJB forum you'd get the same response.

    Personally I would swap out the Gruen for the Tissot seen during the LALD boat chase in which the dial was clearly identified, but this is not my game so I'll just leave it there.

    Love it! Quite the watch enthusiast here.
    Thought he wore a Gruen in YOLT as well by the way :)

    Remark: I find Rolex tacky and tasteless, a watch suited for pimps. Omegas may be just as overpriced, but look definitely less like being designed to show off. Same with Breitling, by the way, though I don't remember the TB one.

    I have to agree here, not that I dislike their looks, especially the Sub that Bond wears is fine, but it has that ‘I don’t really follow this kind of thing, but I have money now so I’ll buy the best-known brand’ kind of connotation to it.

    Personally I like the Seiko’s from the later Rog films, there’s a lot of variation in there, they all have a distinct look. But I’m a Seiko fanboy, so I might be biased.

    Loved Tim’s TAG too, though usually I’m not much of a TAG fellow. Big fan of Sean’s Gruen as well, it has that typical timeless 60’s dresswatch elegance to it, but regretfully I can upvote only one of these.

    Edit: this is all just my opinion of course, de gustibus et coloribus non est disputandum, and all that ;)

    Just to let you know I'm out of this game. Apart from my general dislike of Rolex there is nothing that really moves me regarding the timepiece Bond is wearing. I simply never cared, same as with his handguns. A watch is a watch, as a gun is a gun when you're not really interested in either. So I herewith resign and won't vote further here.
