I can't really think of them as being the same, either. When John Simm started playing the Master, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to look at him without thinking 'SAM SAM SAM', but they are such completely different characters (and played so differently) that it wasn't a problem at all.
Which, I suppose, goes to show how awesome Simm is.
Still, the 'the watch creates a new personality' thing makes it much easier for them to potentially actually be the same character.
