Harvey Dent was Gotham's district attorney before half his face was destroyed by acid. Tommy Lee Jones plays the result, Two-Face, in Joel Schumacher's 1995 Batman Forever, and he plays him loud: all mania, coin flips, and split-down-the-middle suits. Jim Carrey's Riddler matches him for screen-chewing, and between the two villains the film barely leaves room for Val Kilmer's Batman. Jones later said he was not comfortable making the film.
His watch is identified as an Oris Big Crown, the pilot's watch whose oversized crown was designed so aviators could set it while wearing gloves. Oris has made watches in Hölstein, Switzerland since 1904, and the Big Crown line dates to 1938. It is a respected but unflashy Swiss brand, the kind that rarely turns up in a blockbuster. The identification comes from watch-spotting sites rather than a documented placement, and the watch is dark and hard to read on screen, so the specific model is best treated as likely rather than confirmed.
