Watches in movies: Midnight run
80s classic starring Robert Deniro in a comedic role. Best described as a gangster planes trains and automobiles.
From left to right:
A datejust homage, possibly a Seiko I’ve seen in so many other 80s and 90s movies.
Dennis farina sporting a small gold watch, fitting his mob boss persona. I miss the days when men wore small watches.
FBI agent wearing a gold plated watch of some sort. It’s an interesting model I’ve never seen before.
Deniro appears to be wearing some Omega. It has sentimental value to Deniro has he says ris the first gift his wife ever bought him.
In a later scene deniro gives Martin Best’s watch away to some men as compensation for stealing their car. He says “keep it it’s a nice watch”. I can’t get an ID on it, but hopefully it was waterproof was it was on Martin’s wrist as he was swimming in the river.
Just a watch lover with a modest collection.
Now I want chorizo and eggs!
From X-Files. Took the picture 1 year ago. Back in the 90s the resolution was 480p at best. Now that the show is available in HD, that detail caught my eye.
I think this is a Swiss Army watch with the logo convert with a piece of paper to avoid paying royalty fees 😂!
