TeeJay Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 I was just watching the movie (got about halfway through, before deciding to call it a night) and his watch caught my attention in a few scenes. It looked like a black-dialled early Daytona (I forget the model number) on a black leather (or possibly Tropic) strap, and I was wondering if anyone knew for sure what watch he was wearing?

Serafino Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 I don't have the Blu-ray, and this is as much as I could find quickly, but hope this helps: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Based on that blurry picture, I can't tell-ell-ell-ell-ell! What the Rock! Is wearing. Honestly, it could be any number of mid-60s chronographs: Breitling Top Time, first-gen Heuer Autavia, Universal Compax... And those are just the bigger names.

polexpete Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 looks too big for a Daytona, unless he had real small wrists ... P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serafino Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 This will give a better sense of scale, but keep in mind the guy was 6' 5" (196 cm.): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyB Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 There is no verification available of the rumor that in the movie, Ice Station Zebra, Hudson was wearing Jim Nabors' underwear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephry73 Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 The lugs look to be the wrong shape as well as the case. Definitely big, definitely not Daytona/Rolex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serafino Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Bezel seems narrow too. Too bad McGoohan wasn't wearing an Explorer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted March 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Thanks for the feedback, amigos I'm about to watch the film again properly, and will keep my eyes peeled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Serafino's last pic doesn't have the right printing below 12 o'clock to be a rolex- oyster- cosmograph, No crown at 12 either- looks more like lume maybe. I agree the case doesn't look right either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeF123 Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 I am looking at an HD version now. The strap looks like it has NATO-type stripes with some sort of snap closure next to the lug. Can't tell what type of watch....any new ideas?
