I've owned enough chronographs to know that I'm not generally a chronograph guy. That said, I get a lot link closer to ownership when the watch in question is less than 40mm wide. While chronographs can tend to be very chunky, there is a certain appeal link to that complicated dial design packed into a case that wears well on my wrist. Obviously, watch size is not an objective link measure, but I love the size of the Farer Automatic Chronograph and how well it sits on my seven-inch wrist.

The curious watch and movie lover that I am I picked up the phone and dialed the film's prop master Dean Eilertson to get the full story behind this link watch's inclusion in the film. He told me that link the watch was never in the script but that Reynolds pitched the idea to director Shawn link Levy and he loved it.
