Watches

Mathey-Tissot Gold Dress Watch
Worn by Robert De Niro as Frank Sheeran. Hoffa presents Sheeran with a flashy gold Mathey-Tissot dress watch (a rectangular gem-set bezel over a gold dial on a matching gold bracelet) as a token of standing within the organization, and it recurs across the film's middle stretch. The identification is to the brand, reported consistently by watch press and acknowledged by Mathey-Tissot itself; no legible reference is established, and it is a vintage 14k-gold piece rather than a current model. No clean watch-visible frame from the film could be sourced for this row. (Oracle of Time; Life on the Wrist) Montres de Luxe independently corroborates the Mathey-Tissot identification, describing the same yellow-gold, diamond-set watch given to Sheeran at a jubilee celebration and noting the brand's period fit for a film set in 1960s America.

Bulova President
Worn by Robert De Niro as Frank Sheeran. The watch Sheeran wears across the film's 1960s stretch, before Hoffa's gold Mathey-Tissot arrives: a rectangular gold tank with a rose-coloured dial on a black textured leather strap, sitting on a man who is still a union official rather than a made figure. Bulova numbered nothing in the President line, so the watch is placed by case shape, dial colour and period against the model's 1940s executions rather than by a reference. (BAMF Style)
Hamilton (unidentified model)
Worn by Al Pacino as Jimmy Hoffa. BAMF Style hedges Hoffa's gold presentation watch as most likely a Hamilton, guessing at either a 1972 Dateline A-593 or a 1973 Auto Date Buccaneer. (BAMF Style) Montres de Luxe instead identifies the same gold-plated, cushion-cased watch as a Helbros with a logo on the dial, also noting the brand's period fit for the film's 1960s American setting; the two sources disagree on the maker and neither cites a resolvable reference.
