Alejandro Gillick's gold watch
More actions
The small gold watch worn by Alejandro Gillick (Benicio del Toro) in Sicario (2015) has never been confidently identified. It is a slim yellow-gold dress piece on a fine, articulated gold bracelet, with a pale champagne dial that Denis Villeneuve and cinematographer Roger Deakins keep just soft enough that no maker's mark ever reads. The choice is pointed: on a cartel enforcer whose backstory the film withholds for most of its runtime, the watch registers as expensive and old-money, out of place beside the tactical hardware around it, yet never sharp enough to name. It is cataloged here on visible characteristics alone. By Sicario: Day of the Soldado (2018) the same character has traded it for a blunt black Casio G-Shock DW9052.
