Leonardo DiCaprio stars as Howard Hughes alongside Cate Blanchett, Kate Beckinsale, John C. Reilly, Alec Baldwin as Pan Am chief Juan Trippe, Alan Alda, Ian Holm, and Jude Law. (IMDb)
Watches
- Hamilton Dodson
- Worn by Alec Baldwin as Juan Trippe. The Dodson is a late-1930s Hamilton dress watch, made from 1938 to 1948: the 17-jewel manual-wind 987A in a 10-karat gold-filled tonneau case with a stepped, high-polished bezel, $40 new. The film's Hughes-versus-Trippe years fall inside that run, which puts a correctly dated watch on the Pan Am chairman; Hamilton does not say which dial. Montres de Luxe independently identifies the same Hamilton Dodson on Baldwin. (Hamilton; Montres de Luxe)
