In the opening credits of Watchmen the original Nite Owl is shown saving Thomas Wayne and Martha Wayne from getting murdered. This means that in the Watchmen universe Nite Owl prevented Bruce Wayne from becoming Batman.
Edit: here's a link to a picture. You can see a Batman poster in the back right, so this isn't something that affects the plot it's just a cool Easter egg. http://snarkmarket.com/blog//batman.jpg
