Omega (unidentified model)

Worn by Andrew Keir as Capt. Owen Franklin. Sports Hankook's survey of Omega on screen (12 August 2016) notes in passing that an Omega can be seen on Andrew Keir's wrist in this older war film. The competing catalog Watches in Movies had listed the same sighting, an Omega on Captain Owen Franklin, from a reader submission in October 2009; the column repeats the catalog's identification and prints no frame of this film. Neither source names a line or a reference, so only the brand is confirmed. (Sports Hankook; Watches in Movies)
