I watched Ford vs Ferrari the other night and loved it. However right at the end I went "wait on a minute" hit pause and had to go back because suddenly Shelby was wearing a different watch. So I watched the end of the movie but the next morning I wanted to explore what I'd seen. So I grabbed a few shots and tweaked the gamma and found this:
I wish there was better to be had, but it is not any watch Shelby was wearing in the rest of the movie, and nor is it Ken Mile's watch.
I posted on Reddit a question but got nothing (well stupidity) and one suggestion I'll come back to. I asked the Google prompt (AI) (which is based on the majority opinion of whatever any twaddle is written on Reddit) has only the two well known versions.
Now we know its neither of those because the Carerra is a bicompax design (and this is tricompax) and we know that Kens watch hasa black face with white subdials (seen here clearly while he was doing pre-race reviewing of the track).
getting back to that Redditor suggestion; he proposed that it may be a Rolex Daytona ...
which it might well be, as from this angle the black bezel leans in that direction. If I try hard enough I can imagine the Rolex Crown on the watch crown.
What's so strange to me is that nobody else has noticed this little mystery.
