I’ve been noticing how often timepieces appear in Weir’s movies! Thought I would keep track of some.

1 - Rolex GMT Master ii worn by Depardieu in Green Card (clever pick for someone from Europe living in the US)

2 - Omega Seamaster DeVille that Harrison Ford trades for a boat (according the internet they updated it to a Speedmaster for the series adaptation)

3 - The pocket watches that stop in Picnic at Hanging Rock

4 - The tank given to Jill in The Plumber

5/6 - Both Robin Williams in Dead Poets + Jim Carrey in Truman Show wear a Hamilton Boulton. During the Williams (who was a serious watch collector) estate auction, the gold-plated quartz with a Dead Poets Society inscription sold for over $32k.

7/8 - Not from a movie but this is the Rolex Yacht-master that Russell Crowe (also a big watch collector) purchased to celebrate the end of shooting Master & Commander (cheeky fella). Per Crowe this was his daily watch for a few years & was sold as part of Crowe’s infamous Art of Divorce auction.

The only one I forgot to go back to was whatever Linda Hunt wore in Year of Living Dangerously.
