Nikhil Siddhartha wears an Omega Seamaster

Rishi wants to race. He meets Tara in his hometown and loses her, moves to London for racing training, and falls in love again, this time with Tulasi, who vanishes on their wedding day; the search for her leads him into a conspiracy run by a local crime boss. Sudheer Varma directed Appudo Ippudo Eppudo, a Telugu title that translates as then, now, whenever, and the film reached theaters on November 8, 2024 before streaming on Prime Video. Rukmini Vasanth plays Tara. On Rishi's wrist is a steel Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Chronograph.

The identification comes from a single published notice, which gives the brand, the line, the complication, and the metal, and stops there: a steel Planet Ocean chronograph, no reference number, no second source. The film's own poster shows what there is to see. Nikhil Siddhartha sprints down a London street, black cabs and red buses behind him, a steel watch plain on his left wrist and too small in the frame to read.

The film itself landed badly. Reviews were uniformly negative; one critic called it an outdated crime drama, and another called it a boring and painful watch.
