Kurt Russell wears a Rolex Datejust

Kurt Russell plays Lt. Nick Frescia in Tequila Sunrise (1988), Robert Towne's drama about a narcotics detective torn between his job and an old friendship with retired drug dealer Mac McKussic (Mel Gibson). Frescia and Mac grew up together, surf the same beaches, and are drawn to the same woman, played by Michelle Pfeiffer.

Frescia wears a two-tone Rolex Datejust, yellow gold and steel, with a fluted gold bezel, a champagne dial, and the five-link Jubilee bracelet. Mac, the dealer, wears a gold Submariner; the detective wears the dressier Datejust, the watch of a man doing well on a city salary rather than a beach diver.
