Chris Evans wears a Rolex Day-Date

The screen behind Pete Brenner reports ninety-six million dollars. He stands in front of it in a gray linen suit, one hand pushed into his trouser pocket, and on the wrist of that hand, half swallowed by the fabric, is a gold watch on a gold bracelet. The company on the screen is Zanna Therapeutics, the drug it sells is Lonafen. The watch is a Rolex Day-Date, the model Rolex calls the President, the one it has only ever built in gold or platinum.

You cannot actually read the dial in the shot. The hand is in the pocket and the case is turned away, so what reaches the camera is the gold and the bracelet, which is most of what a Day-Date is anyway. The identification comes from a French watch site and a crowdsourced database rather than a publication that pinned it down, and both call it a yellow-gold Day-Date. No crown or model name is legible on screen, so it stays a likely rather than a certainty.

Pain Hustlers is David Yates's Netflix detour from Hogwarts. He directed the last four Harry Potter films and all three Fantastic Beasts, and here he takes Wells Tower's screenplay, adapted from Evan Hughes's book, into the opioid crisis. The story is loosely built on Insys Therapeutics, the real company whose fentanyl spray Subsys helped drive the epidemic and whose executives were convicted of racketeering in 2019. Emily Blunt plays Liza Drake, a broke single mother whom Brenner pulls into the sales operation. He has the Day-Date on his wrist in the boardroom, while the screen behind him reports the ninety-six million.
