Danny DeVito appears as the Rude Gambler in Tim Burton's 1996 alien-invasion comedy Mars Attacks!, a character whose entire screen time consists of being loud at a Las Vegas craps table when the Martians arrive. The film assembled one of the more absurd ensemble casts of the decade, with Jack Nicholson in two roles, Glenn Close as the First Lady, and Pierce Brosnan as a tweed-wearing scientist. Burton modeled the Martians on the 1962 Topps trading-card series and gave them the same gleeful sadism the cards had.

A watch-spotting site identifies the watch on the Rude Gambler's wrist as a Rolex, which is about the most predictable choice possible for a loud man at a Vegas craps table: money and confidence in a single prop. The specific model is not identified, and the watch is not clearly visible in the available stills, so the identification stays at brand level.
