Which is the true Bond watch?
Mr. Bond goes into his closet and puts on his watch...
Did he put on the Rolex Submariner or Omega Seamaster? |

Whichever one the writer of the story/screenplay puts on his wrist...because he's not real. He's a fictional character of spy novels and movies.

I do believe that depends on what year you look at. Someone here will chime in I'm sure as to models vs years but I believe that early on it would have been a Submariner, later on a Seamaster. Also I think that there might be a difference as to wether you're talking movie or book.

Most of the original bonds connery, lazenby,moore all wore subs so that has to be the original. Omega wasnt introduced as a bond watch till brosnan wore it in the 90's..

Second that. In the books, Fleming never stated Bond wore a Sub. He was probably projecting his Explorer.

omega was so clearly a result of product placement that i would never consider it an 'original' bond watch (and i own a seamaster, so not 'completely' biased :))

Bond didn't wear a watch...he used his cellphone to tell the time.
