TGIF: Two Watches to Bring Out Your Inner Bond Villain

If you grew up in the era of James Bond villains, you can look at a timepiece and just imagine the villainy. For example, if you were a fan of Ian Fleming's Goldfinger, you might want a watch with a golden tone. 

Versace Greca Dome Watch

The Versace Greca Dome Luxury Timepiece might fit the bill perfectly. The Medusa logo would be perfect for some shadowy organization determined to dominate the world or, at least, blackmail it. The bezel, dial, and bracelet designs of this luxury Swiss Made quartz watch just add to the mystery. But, you don't have to be a secret agent to hunt this watch down. This Versace Greca Dome watch is available here on Amazon.

Mathey-Tissot Dragon Watch

If you were a fan of The Man with the Golden Gun, the Mathey-Tissot Dragon (available here on Amazon) might be your choice. There is nothing more elegantly sinister than a watch with a dragon.

This limited edition Swiss Made watch has a gold-tone case and an automatic movement with an exhibition caseback.

Sharp Watch Shout Out: GUESS Stainless Steel Gunmetal Quartz Chronometer

Here's a cool looking watch that I recently stumbled across while dream surfing Amazon.  For a relatively inexpensive watch, this GUESS Stainless Steel Gunmetal Quartz Chronometer takes the guilloché grand prize!  Guilloche is the name for decorative patterns engraved into the dial of the watch. I chose this watch because it gives off a dressy, but sinister vibe.  It's also a watch that most of us can easily afford.

While this watch is affordable, it's also functional.  The subdials work and provide chronometer functionality. As of May 2026, you can still find this great looking watch on Amazon.
