I havent seen the film yet, but I have seen answers to this question.
One of the answers, courtesy of the interweb is that he is wearing two watches. One is the hamilton khaki sunset and the other is the swiss army victorinox st 4000. ??

Ewen is partly correct - he is wearing 2 watches. It was recently debated on my blog:

http://blog.breitlingsource.com/2007/12 ... t-watches/

I was incorrect in stating that it was the Hamilton Sunset.. I believe that is what Hamilton wanted everyone to think, so the watch was marketed as such. And it was probably not ready when the movie was being filmed, so they had him wear an X-Wind instead when filming, and just said it was the Sunset afterwards or something.

So he is wearing the Hamilton X-Wind (posing as a Sunset) and a Victorinox ST 4000.

I must be honest but until this thread I've never given them a look, even though I'd heard of them before.

The Twilight looks OK-ish, but I REALLY like the Jazzmaster Rattrapante. Apparently there are only 366 of them in existence and the RRP was only $3995! :shock: For a fully automatic rattrapante with a proper modified ETA movement, that's SERIOUS value.

BUT get this - after a quick search on the net I found this (it's at the bottom left of the page once you get there) -

Excuse me... $400!?!?? I'm absolutely gutted I didn't know that one was out before it was discontinued. :cry:
