Michael Caine wears a Rolex Day-Date

Graham Marshall is the kind of man who believes the corner office was promised to him. When a younger colleague gets the promotion instead, Michael Caine's character in A Shock to the System (1990) does not sulk or update his resume. He starts killing people. Jan Egleson's dark comedy tracks Marshall's turn from passed-over middle manager to methodical murderer, carried out with the same bland corporate efficiency he brings to everything else. Peter Riegert plays Robert Benham, the younger, more political colleague who gets the job.

Marshall has been described as wearing a Rolex Day-Date, the gold-only model that signals having arrived in a boardroom. No reliable source documents the watch and it is not clear in the available stills, so the identification is unconfirmed.
