Stranger Than Fiction

Watches

Timex Ironman Dual Tech

Worn by Will Ferrell as Harold Crick. Harold Crick's wristwatch is named alongside him in the film's opening narration, and it works less like a prop than like a second character, nudging the plot along while its owner barely notices it. The model is the Ironman Triathlon Dual Tech, reference T56371, an analogue dial that switches to a digital display at the press of the start/stop button. On screen the face was augmented with computer graphics, so the watch performs feats the retail version cannot. (The Time Bum, Filmgarb)
