Focus splits into two halves, a New Orleans street-con operation and a Buenos Aires racing scheme, and Rodrigo Santoro turns up in the second. He plays Rafael Garriga, a wealthy motorsport team owner who becomes the mark when Will Smith's con artist angles his way into rigging a race. Glenn Ficarra and John Requa directed the 2015 crime comedy.
On Garriga's wrist is the watch the film's final con is built around: a Piaget Emperador, the cushion-cased white gold dress watch with a tourbillon turning in the dial, worn here on a black strap. A watch-in-film catalogue identified it as the Emperador Coussin, reference G0A38040, a roughly $220,000 piece, which fits the script: in the closing scene Jess, played by Margot Robbie, lifts it clean off his wrist.
Piaget makes the Emperador as its formal line, and the Coussin is its showpiece, a tourbillon set into a cushion case.
