Here’s another photo of the most recent James Bond watch models associated with each of the six brands known to have been worn by Agent 007.

This follows a similar exclusive presented here on the James Bond Watches Blog last Friday.

As before, all watches shown are set to the same date (where applicable), synchronized and running.

Starting with the front row, left—

A Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date watch, specified by author Jeffery Deaver as the personal James Bond choice in Carte Blanche.

Middle watch, front row watch is also from Carte Blanche. This particular piece is further distinguished as having actually been worn by Mr Deaver at the end of his United States book tour, last June.

The other four watches were displayed at the National Watch & Clock Museum as part of its “Bond Watches, James Bond Watches” exhibit, June 2010, through April 2011.
