In Eli Roth's Death Wish (2018), Bethany works the counter at Jolly Roger's Sporting Goods, the gun shop where Bruce Willis's Paul Kersey goes to turn himself from grieving surgeon into armed man. Kirby Bliss Blanton plays her with the relentless cheer of a born saleswoman, reviewers singled out her "scene-stealing turn" as the gun shop assistant, and the film also puts her in a Jolly Roger's commercial pitching "tactical furniture," household pieces that dispense assault weapons from hidden compartments. On her wrist through the shop scenes is a Casio Baby-G.
This sighting carries paperwork most hero watches never get. After production, the screen-worn watch itself passed to a collector through VIP Fan Auction with a certificate of authenticity from MGM, and the listing that documents it on the prop registry YourProps photographs the watch in detail: a Baby-G in clear translucent resin with a rose-gold bezel, the model Casio sells as the BG-169G. The same listing pairs the prop with a frame from the film, Bethany mid-pitch in front of the gun wall with the clear watch visible on her raised wrist. Casio created the Baby-G line in 1994 to put G-Shock toughness in a smaller case, and this one costs around sixty dollars. The most thoroughly documented watch in Death Wish belongs not to the vigilante but to the woman who sold him his guns.
