Jean-Pierre Marielle wears an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak

Claude Sautet made films about bourgeois French life with a precision that bordered on clinical. Quelques jours avec moi (A Few Days with Me, 1988) follows Martial Pasquier (Daniel Auteuil), a wealthy heir who checks himself out of a psychiatric clinic and goes to supervise one of his family's provincial supermarkets in Limoges. Jean-Pierre Marielle plays Monsieur Fonfrin, the store manager who has been skimming from the business.

Fonfrin has been identified as wearing an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, the steel luxury sports watch Gérald Genta designed in 1972. On a manager quietly embezzling to keep up appearances, it would be a pointed choice, a watch worth more than the gap he is hiding. The identification rests on a single enthusiast source and is not confirmed in the available stills.
