Every watch worn by James Bond

Arguably the original Bond watch is a Rolex Explorer. Ian Fleming wore a Rolex Explorer 1016.

Bond lifted his left wrist. Remembered that he no longer had a watch. That he would certainly be allowed on expenses. He would get another one as soon as the shops opened after Boxing Day. Another Rolex? Probably. They were on the heavy side, but they worked. And at least you could see the time in the dark with those big phosphorus numerals. Somewhere in the hall, a clock struck the half-hour. 1.30. Twelve hours before, he must have just set up the trap that killed the three men in the Mercedes. Self-defence, but the hell of a way to celebrate Christmas!

Didn't he wear a Mido at some point ?

I'm sure I read somewhere that in one of the original books he wore a Mido Mulitifort.
