A View to a Kill

The fourteenth James Bond film and Roger Moore's last. Bond investigates microchip magnate Max Zorin, whose plan to destroy Silicon Valley culminates in a fight on the Golden Gate Bridge. (IMDb)

Watches

Seiko 7A38-7060
Worn by Roger Moore as James Bond. In the pre-title sequence, relaxing in the iceberg-disguised submarine after the Siberia ski chase, Bond wears a white-dial Seiko quartz chronograph on a steel bracelet. The watch was long identified as the 7A28-7020, but a high-definition re-examination credited to @rexworthywatches found a day-date window that instead fits the 7A38-7060, the day-date development of the same movement family; the window is not conclusively legible in available frames, so the 7A38-7060 identification is probable rather than confirmed. Either candidate carries Seiko's 7A-series calibre, the first analog quartz chronograph movement, a fitting close to the brand's nine-year Bond partnership in Moore's final film. (Bond Lifestyle) Montres de Luxe (2021) is one such source repeating the traditional 7A28-7020 identification, predating the day-date re-examination. (Montres de Luxe)
Seiko H558-500
Worn by Roger Moore as James Bond. Quill & Pad identifies a Seiko H558-500 digital-analog quartz diver tucked under Bond's tuxedo cuff during the Eiffel Tower and Paris chase sequence with May Day. (Quill & Pad)
Seiko 6923-8080
Worn by Roger Moore as James Bond. Quill & Pad, confirming with Seiko UK, identifies a two-tone Seiko 6923-8080 quartz dress watch as Bond's on entering Max Zorin's château, though the source stresses the watch "is not visible at all" beyond its crown and case flank in the shot. (Quill & Pad)
Rolex Datejust
Worn by Roger Moore as James Bond. When Bond checks co-conspirator Sir Godfrey Tibbett (Patrick Macnee) for a pulse in the back of a Rolls-Royce, the watch clearly visible on his own wrist is a Rolex Datejust rather than any of his scripted Seikos. Quill & Pad is explicit that this was not a costume choice: it identifies the Datejust as Moore's personal watch, worn unintentionally into a shot it "shouldn't even have been in." The reference and generation are not given. (Quill & Pad)
