Watches
- Cartier Ceinture
- Worn by Al Pacino as Benjamin "Lefty" Ruggiero. Lefty, a man who reads status off other men's wrists, wears a gold Cartier Ceinture, its octagonal stepped case and painted Roman numerals visible on a gold bracelet, including under the blood-red Christmas tracksuit. The identification is probable: close-ups are few, and specialist spotting settles on the Ceinture from the two-tiered case and Cartier numerals, with a multi-tone bracelet variant of the model available by the 1990s. In a late scene Lefty empties his pockets and unbuckles the watch before leaving to meet his fate. (Time+Tide; Wrist Enthusiast) BAMF Style, describing the watch under the red Christmas tracksuit, sees the same shape, a gold octagonal case around a white octagonal dial, but reads the bracelet as a gold expanding band and declines to name a maker, saying makers from Timex to Longines sold that profile in the period.
