...here we are arguing over a movie set watch worn buy a movie character... nevertheless,
I beg to differ with regards to Quartz durability over mechanical movement when taking into consideration the nature of 007's profession... Quartz is susceptible to electric and electromagnetic pulses (I have personally spoilt the IC of one Omega quartz watch I had, twice because of this phenomena) whereas an auto will not be susceptible to this. Considering that he has been electrocuted on occassion... I think a mechanical movement SMP will serve him better...
With regards to where does 007 find the time to wind his auto? 1st of all, an auto doesn't need handwinding (and if you are talking about the initial winding - I'm sure Q will take care of that), 2nd his lifestyle is so active (with all the shooting, jumping, ducking and f**king) his auto will surely stay fully wound - day and night!haha...
