Brad Pitt wears an Omega Chronograph

In Seven Years in Tibet (1997), Jean-Jacques Annaud's adaptation of Heinrich Harrer's memoir, Brad Pitt plays the Austrian mountaineer who is interned in India during the war, escapes, and reaches Lhasa, where he tutors the young Dalai Lama. The film spans 1939 to the early 1950s.

The watch on Pitt's wrist is described as a gold Omega chronograph. The account is thin and comes from collector forums, where one version holds that Pitt took a crew member's gold Omega for the role; the same gold chronograph is elsewhere attributed to David Thewlis as Peter Aufschnaiter. With no firm source and a contested wearer, it stays a possibility.
