The Watches Of James Bond 007

Shaken not stirred

Keeping time is important. Without watches society would not have been able to develop in the same way that it has. Imagine trying to coordinate an activity with someone else based solely on the height of the Sun. Good luck with that or what if the famous watch wearing James Bond was forced to use a wrist mounted sundial? Ick.

This Pulsar is my favorite. 

What Does Watch Type and Style Say?

There is an old expression that goes something like this: “If you can tell a lot about a woman by the shoes she wears, then you can tell a lot about a man by the watch he wears.” That being said, let’s see how the evolution of a certain British Secret Agent has affected his watch choices over time. Take a look at this info graphic courtesy of our friends at watches2u that catalogs the changes in 007 James Bond’s watch design and styling throughout the film series. Which one is your favorite?

Drax :-: "First there was the dream, now there is reality. Here in the untainted cradle of the heavens will be created a new super race, a race of perfect physical specimens. You have been selected as its progenitors, like gods your offspring will return to Earth and shape it in their image. You have all served in public capacities in my terrestrial empire. Your seed like yourselves will pay deference to the ultimate dynasty which I alone have created. From their first day on Earth they will be able top look up and know that there is law and order in the heavens."  Hugo Drax Villain Moonraker
