Air (2023)

Air

Ben Affleck directs this dramatization of how Nike's struggling basketball division pursued and signed college prospect Michael Jordan in 1984. Talent scout Sonny Vaccaro (Matt Damon) convinces marketing chief Rob Strasser (Jason Bateman) and CEO Phil Knight (Ben Affleck) to commit the department's entire shoe budget to Jordan, outmaneuvering incumbents Converse and Adidas for the deal that created the Air Jordan line.

Watches

Rolex (unidentified model)

Worn by Joel Gretsch as John O'Neill. Converse president John O'Neill arrives to pitch the Jordan family wearing, per the shooting script's stage direction, "a Rolex heavy on his wrist" — the payoff to a joke scout Sonny Vaccaro makes earlier in the film, correctly predicting the watch before O'Neill ever appears on screen. No source names a specific model or reference. (Scriptslug, DMTalkies, Product Placement Blog)

Unidentified watch

Worn by Matt Damon as Sonny Vaccaro. Sonny wears a round steel-cased watch on a steel bracelet, visible on his left wrist while he takes a call at his cluttered Nike office desk. The available frame is too soft and glare-affected to read the dial, and a Spotern "wanted" listing for this exact watch confirms no identification has been made elsewhere either. (Spotern)
