Watches
- Rolex Submariner
- Worn by Charles Bronson as Col. Harry Dobbs. Bronson wears a steel Rolex Submariner on a rigid steel bracelet with pierced links. No reference is given. (Montres de Luxe) Relojes Especiales members dispute the reading: asked to identify the watch in 2024, two members first pointed to the Montres de Luxe article, but iVAMP then posted two frames from the film and argued that the hour markers are batons rather than the Submariner's circles, that the case has no crown guards and that the bezel is a plain black ring without an insert, likening it to a Longines Skin Diver of the period, and Jordim added that Dobbs describes the watch in dialogue as American and suggested a Bulova, Aquastar or Yema; the thread settled on "not a Rolex" without an agreed alternative.
