I go Sean Connery number 1, just hit it running with Dr No onwards, then Pierce Brosnan THEN Timothy Dalton.
The reason I go that order is Pierce even though he started string with Goldeneye got shafted HARD with the writing. Timothy got shafted with the TIME his films were released.
If Pierce got more serious scripts like Timothy's run or even Daniel Craig's run, I think his charisma in how he played Bond just NARROWLY would put him ahead but it'd be a near tie 2nd place for them both. Then Rodger Moore as I just didn't like as much how he played the 'gentlemanly' Bond , then George Lazenby and finally Daniel Craig.
Same reasons here tbh. Connery is just, well, Bond. Both Brosnan and Dalton were ones I liked while similar to your reasons Moore just didn't really "fit" what I expected of the character. Lazenby is... probably best left forgotten. Craig was just too much action hero for what was meant to be a spy/assassin.
