I like to think that Bond might be a two watch kinda guy, but the literary Bond was fairly spartan in the way he traveled. So, prolly not likely that he would pack a dress watch (even though he had a tux?!?!). It would likely be one watch that did it all. In the books, he was a military man. His boss was a military man. MI6 was in essence military. So the watch would have to be something likely to be military issue, or designed for the military.

That said, probably wouldn't be Rolex, but I would defer to the Brits on the forum. What is the current military issue diver in the UK?
