Which Bond would you be if you could be him and why?

I’d be Connery’s Bond because he has everything: charm, humour, toughness, sarcasm, lithe physique, not too muscular, not posh and wore the best suits and clothes in the series—apart from in DAF.

Also this reminds me of this song:

Moore because his Bond was effortless, he barely broke a sweat and he still did some of the most exciting stuff. And plus - he was still picking up women at 57!
Brosnan because he did the most bada** stuff, and he had the hottest women as well - Natalya, Wai Lin, Christmas Jones and Jinx - awesome! However, he does have to go through over a year of torture, so that's a bit off putting.
So, Moore it is!
) Very, very true.
For myself, I'd have to say Connery. It's no wonder that nobody picks Craigger; his path has been a tough one all 'round

Having said that, I'll join Devereaux and Robbo88. Brozzer for me.
After all, I'd like to have that BMW in TND.

Brosnan and Connery next.
Would not wanna be Lazenby to be honest. Tracy dying would be terrible to live through. Dalton would be pretty full on as well. Not to mention Craig!

I mean. He seemed to be having a lot of fun. Swann was great :x

The kilt wasn't part of Bond's wardrobe, he just borrowed it from Sir Hillary. The ruffled shirts, however, were.
I'd love to drive a Citroen like that, sleep with the Countess, have a great dinner and win at the casino. Plus, climb that rock.

In terms of overall charm, masculinity, smoothness, intelligence and such, Connery.
In terms of fun, probably Moore. But here's the thing: Connery's Bond really never suffered great loss, the closest he came being Aki in You Only Live Twice. For the most part, he was spared deep emotional challenges.
Lazenby, Moore, and Dalton, however, have all suffered from Tracy's loss. There's no mention in the Brosnan films that I can recall of that, but he has Paris and, I suppose, Elektra, who the film suggested was a kind of Tracy figure.
Craig's Bond, however, has suffered the most. Three films have dealt with the lingering effects of Vesper, and the one that didn't took M. In fact, of all the Bonds, his is the least able to enjoy a normal or frivolous life.
