The Captain (2019)

The Captain

The Captain (中国机长), directed by Andrew Lau, dramatizes Sichuan Airlines Flight 3U8633's real 2018 windshield-failure incident, in which the cockpit's front windshield blew out at 32,000 feet over the Tibetan Plateau, depressurizing the cabin and partially ejecting the co-pilot before the crew regained control and landed safely in Chengdu. Zhang Hanyu plays Senior Captain Liu Changjian, Ou Hao plays First Officer Xu Yichen, Du Jiang plays Captain Liang Dong, and Yuan Quan plays Senior Purser Bi Nan; the film retains the real crew's names. Released on 30 September 2019, it became one of the year's top-grossing mainland Chinese films. (Wikipedia)

Watches

Breitling Colt 41 Automatic A1731311

Worn by Zhang Hanyu as Liu Changjian (刘长健). xbiao.com names the captain's watch as the Breitling reference A1731311, a simple three-hand day-date model at roughly ¥22,800. (xbiao.com) That reference corresponds to the Colt 41 Automatic rather than the Chronomat or Challenger lines the source's own shorthand suggests; the Colt was marketed for years as the "Chronomat Colt Automatic" before Breitling spun it into its own collection, so both names describe the same family. (Wikipedia) The source separately notes that the real captain, Liu Chuanjian, wore a different watch during the actual 2018 incident, a Breitling Superocean A1736402; that is a fact about the real person, not about this film appearance.
