TenJed69 Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 OK, so a little fantasy exercise here. Some characters in movies/books/TV shows and games are well known for the watches they wear, others aren't or don't even wear one. So, I'll name a few characters and you say what you think a good watch (rep or gen, or say for each, your choice) would suit them - and you can add to the list of characters yourself. If the character already wears a watch, don't pick the one they already wear even if you think it's the best choice! Pick a second best in that case. I'll start with: James Bond - so no Rolex Sub or Omega Seamaster. Danny Archer - from Blood Diamond, no Breitling Chrono Avenger. Indianna Jones - don't recall him wearing a watch. Neo - from the Matrix, don't think he wears a watch. Vic Mackey - from the Shield, no Cartier SA Must 21. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeeJay Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 I'll throw a new character into the mix Captain Jack Harkness: Developed a strange fixation with the wardrobes of WWII, despite actually being from the 51st Century Only seen wearing a Rolex Air-King date in Torchwood to date (although in a recent publicity shot for Season 3, he could be wearing a Tudor Chronograph) No Rolexes or Tudors, as the actor who portrays the character frequently wears Rolexes in his daily life (and has been spotted wearing an Ebel Discovery Chronograph) Has also been known to dress thusly: So don't fall for the Forties obsession...

Lifeguard and somewhat New Age spiritualist... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demsey Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 Ooooooh, that kind of 'redress', I thought we were going to be able to right the likes of Danny Glover and Sean Penn for being Chavez lovin' prats. In that case, I'll wait until 'she' is mentioned. I suppose I could put a white dial 116520 on 'dat. Harkness? I'd put him in an Omega Constellation.........ladies. JTB OMGTF!

The Mentalist Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) I'd have Bond in a SS Breitling Chronomat. Good call on Indy. I can just see him in a vintage Pam. Mind you, in his Professor guise I can see him with a Patek moonphase on a brown strap. Neo I can see wearing a RADO diastar.
