Scott Frank's Netflix limited series, adapted from Walter Tevis's 1983 novel. Orphaned as a child, Beth Harmon learns chess from the janitor at her orphanage and rises through the competitive ranks over the 1950s and 1960s, her genius for the board shadowed throughout by an addiction to the tranquilizers she was first given as a girl. Anya Taylor-Joy stars as Beth opposite Bill Camp, Moses Ingram, Thomas Brodie-Sangster, and Marielle Heller; all seven episodes premiered on Netflix on 23 October 2020. (IMDb) (Wikipedia)

Watches

Bulova American Girl K

Worn by Anya Taylor-Joy as Beth Harmon. Beth receives the watch as a graduation gift, and wears it through the run of the series. Bulova's own archives department identifies the piece as a 1957 American Girl K, a faceted gold-tone tonneau dress watch on a matching bracelet; the model predates any documented reference number, so the identification rests on Bulova's naming rather than a numeric catalogue entry.
