Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998)

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

Terry Gilliam directed this adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson's novel. Set in 1971, Johnny Depp plays journalist Raoul Duke, Thompson's fictional alter ego, who travels to Las Vegas with his attorney Dr. Gonzo, played by Benicio del Toro, on a magazine assignment that dissolves into a drug-fuelled odyssey through the city's casinos.

Watches

Alsta watch

Worn by Johnny Depp as Raoul Duke. Montres de Luxe identifies Duke's watch only as a vintage Alsta, without naming a model; the era-appropriate piece is consistent with the film's 1971 setting, but no source narrows it to a specific Alsta line such as the Nautoscaph diver. (Montres de Luxe) BAMF Style does name a model. It describes a steel watch with a black bezel and black dial on a period black leather rally strap and reports that Omega Forums members identified it as an Alsta Nautoscaph, the diver Richard Dreyfuss wears in Jaws, in place of the skeleton-faced Bulova Accutron that Hunter S. Thompson's book gives Duke. (BAMF Style)
