If you have seen me post about this drop before, please be cool and lurk only. ๐ธ
NO MODS can guess!! (because they KNOW)
I'll provide the answer at the end of the day. Depending on how it goes, I'll drop a few hints along the way.
It is a nice watch. ๐
Do you know what brand it is? ;)
IWC (International Watch Company)
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
Keep going. ๐

IWC
I, W, C

Kash tends to wear the same Breitling, itโs nice, but Iโd take that IWC any day over that Breitling.

I think this it.
Donald Jr. is known to wear IWC, but from what Iโve seen this isnโt his style and Big Daddy wears mainly gold watches. Whoever the owner is they are more than likely wealthy by most standards, refined and not into bling watches. This watch is badass but itโs also conservative.
I tried to match this watch to some key players, but wasnโt able to come up with anything. I thought maybe Kash but I donโt see him having accumulated the wealth that in most circumstances would justify its purchase.
You are dancing around 2 more 17 references. ๐
Edit: I also tried to find who was wearing that watch and also could not find anyone. Iโm sure Q was way more careful than that.
(1880)๐๐ฌ Originally founded in Switzerland by American watchmaker Florentine Ariosto Jones in 1868, the company was transferred to the Rauschenbach family in 1880 after bankruptcy and has been a subsidiary of the Swiss Richemont Group since 2000.
Might not be a case of trying to be careful with this. I wouldnโt be surprised if one day I run a search again and find that new pics have been uploaded so that we can identify the owner.
Thatโs a very nice time piece and whoever owns it probably enjoys wearing it. Also, that pen is likely to be a 1k + Mount Blanc and its owner is going to be someone important that uses it for special occasions.
Perhaps. I could also see it being acquired solely for this purpose. You sound like a watch enthusiast like me, so I think we feel differently about it. lol
Edit: When we are done with this exercise, you'll see more of why I believe this watch was purchased not to wear, but for the express purposes of Q comms.
The pen is indeed a Mont Blanc. Starwalker Extreme.
Perhaps Dan Scanvino...
Possibly..
I think Steve Mnuchin would wear this watch and heโs someone I havenโt checked๐ค
Yes...i believe he's the director of this movie.

Not just ANY Portugieser.
The IWC Portugieser 42mm Mens Watch is $12,500. 12+5=17

My research shows this particular watch had an MSRP of $12,100. So not that.
But like u/ModernMan1, you are really close to finding another, if not 2 more.
