The Misfits

A recently divorced woman falls in with a trio of aging cowboys rounding up wild mustangs in the Nevada desert, in a story reflecting the fading of the American West. (Wikipedia) Directed by John Huston and written by Arthur Miller, the film stars Clark Gable as Gay Langland, Marilyn Monroe as Roslyn Taber, and Montgomery Clift; it was released by United Artists in February 1961 and was the final completed film for both Gable and Monroe.

Watches

Cartier Tank

Worn by Clark Gable as Gay Langland. BAMF Style notes that "Clark Gable was a lifelong watch collector who often wore his own timepieces in his movies," and that The Misfits "appears to be no exception," describing "a square-cased tank watch that may be Gable's own Cartier Tank," with a white square dial with black Roman numeral markers on a brown tooled leather strap; no reference number is given.
