Fifth Avenue Creations pocket watch
More actions
A Fifth Avenue Creations pocket watch is one of the Swiss-made mechanical pocket watches sold under that American gift-market name in the 1970s: 17-jewel manual-wind movements, some with Incabloc shock protection, behind hunter covers engraved with fishing, equestrian and similar themes, often inscribed as retirement or anniversary presentations. Surviving examples on the collector market are the only record of the maker, which published no history of its own. (eBay listing) The Penguin's pocket watch in Batman Returns is one of them: Propstore screen-matched the brass-coloured watch and chain to the film's insert shot by the scuffing inside its cover and the grime on its dial, and names no model.
