    Another good one. But we do see it, at the very end. McLane pops the clasp because Grubber is gripping Holly’s wrist at the watch. Classic death scene ensues. There’s a brief glimpse of the Rolex, and it was vital to the scene.

    That first one is lovely. Logo looks like Baume & Mercier?

    Interestingly, Baldwin turns out to be as much of a dick in real life as he was in the film.

    The American

    Clooney film with plenty of gratuitous speedy pro shots. Think that was the one that encouraged me to get some straps for my speedy.

    Ray Donovan famously has several watches on display on the first couple of seasons. Most prominently on season 2 he bribes a police officer with a Gold Daytona along a couple of other things. It’s notable because there’s a whole conversation around it.

    His whole collection is seen several times during the seasons,

    He himself wears a quartz omega seamaster( his own)

    Of course. Apollo 13 Tom Hanks and his Speedmaster used for the entry countdown. Other characters wear the watch too but a whole scene revolves around those 14 seconds

    I timed the 14s engine-burn in the movie on my own Speedmaster - it lasts a full minute!

    I guess his watch needs service.

    Walter White and his TAG in Breaking Bad. Lot of deep insights and sub stories related to Jessie and the watch

    I was going to post "A Few Dollars More" but someone did already. So, here's a link to the watch on ytub.

    When that watch plays a tune it's definitely the elephant in the room.
