File:Amelia (2009) - Hamilton Khaki Field Automatic scene.jpg

Summary

Description: On-set production still from Amelia (2009) showing Hilary Swank in costume as Amelia Earhart, in flight jacket and scarf, checking her reflection in the polished fuselage of the Lockheed Vega 5B. Her raised hand shows a dark-strapped wristwatch on her left wrist in both the direct (blurred foreground) view and the mirrored reflection; embedded EXIF (Canon EOS 5D, DateTimeOriginal 2008-06-04) confirms it is a genuine unit-photography frame from the film's production rather than a promotional composite. The frame was originally posted to a January 2010 TimeZone forum thread ("NEWS: Hamilton Khaki Field Automatic 38mm in 'Amelia'") captioned "Hamilton Khaki Field Automatic in an onscreen close-up," reporting Hamilton's own account that it supplied the 38mm stainless Khaki Field Automatic for Swank's wardrobe — consistent with the page's existing Hamilton-sourced citation. Caveat: at this resolution and crop distance the watch is visible as a dark-strapped, round-cased wristwatch, but dial text/markings are not independently legible in the frame itself, so the specific reference is corroborated by the captioning source and Hamilton's own placement statement rather than by reading the dial. Not a wrist-only close-up; the watch is a secondary detail within a wider on-set photograph.
