Watches In The Wild The Road Through America, Episode 1: A Model Of Mass Production

Memorial Day weekend feels like an eternity ago. But that's when Top Gun: Maverick – the long-gestating sequel to the 1986 blockbuster – was released. I wrote about the new movie, and the watches in it, way back then. I knew it'd be a hit, and so did everyone else. But pretty much nobody expected it to contend for Oscars. Yet here we are.

Now, there's no Oscar for best watch, or even best prop (sigh), so last year I nominated some excellently watch-y movies myself. And this year, the imaginary Best Watch Picture statuette goes to Top Gun in a runaway.

The movie brings so much to the table in terms of how a watch gets on screen in the first place. There's a bit of product placement at work, sure, but if there's such a thing as "great product placement" that's what we're getting here. On top of that is a watch with both cinematic and horological provenance, in addition to a killer vintage Rolex obtained through sheer happenstance.

How do I know all this? I went straight to the source: Robbie Duncan, property master on the film. In my initial Watching Movies post , I wrote about the IWC models that appeared wrapped around the wrists of actors like Miles Teller and Glen Powell. Those watches were the what . With Duncan, I got to the how.

"We were out in Nevada just starting to get the movie prepped," Duncan told me. "While we were there, we happened to meet this pilot who had an IWC and he said 'I can hook you up with the owner.'"

The person he meant was the brand's CEO, Christoph Grainger-Herr. "So then Chris flies down to Nevada and we have a great meeting with him," Duncan recalled. "Chris and IWC were really cool in terms of letting IWC be a part of it. It got to the point where we were like 'Great, we can have every character wear IWCs now.'"

This is where the idea of great product placement comes in. Duncan fell into a scenario where one of the most popular watch brands on the planet was granting him full access to its watches for use in the film. That's nothing new though. What's different here is the legitimacy angle. IWC has a relationship with the United States Navy Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor program (real-life Top Gun), supplying watches to instructors that are unavailable to mere mortals like us.

"It was the best thing we could've had – to legitimize the pilots in that sense," Duncan said. "Watches are the closest people can get to feeling they are like pilots. It made it that much more believable."

There was something of a selection process for the watches based on the rank of the characters on-screen. "Higher-ups got Portuguese, and the pilots wore Pilot's Watches," he said. To mix things up, some of them would have a green strap and some would have a black strap on either a "Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor" Mark XVIII or a "Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor" Chronograph.

In addition to utilizing authentic IWC models, Duncan was also able to design a special stopwatch in conjunction with the brand. "The stopwatch was fun and tricky because I had to convince IWC that someone could actually put it in their hand and break it when in reality that wouldn't happen," Duncan said. "It was such a cool process. IWC was able to 3D print me outside casings to allow the non-working prop watch to function as we needed in the film."

Being the prop master on a job like Top Gun has some perks – and Duncan made the most of his. "I was able to get an IWC myself from the job – a Top Gun watch," he said. "But what I did is take a Porsche Design band and put it on my IWC. IWC doesn't make an actual metal band for this one. And when I sent mine in for service, the brand said 'Robbie, yours is like a one-of-one Top Gun watch."

Speaking of Porsche Design, let's talk about Tom Cruise's watch. In my previous story, I wrote that the Porsche Design Chronograph 1 by Orfina worn by Cruise appears to be the exact one he wore in the first film. Well, guess what? It actually is.

"Jerry Bruckheimer had this watch in his safe, and this is the exact watch Tom wore in the first Top Gun ," Duncan said. "And this one went from the set to the safe in the trailer. It had to be taken care of like crazy. The hardest part was getting doubles. There was no stuntman for Tom, but we still needed doubles of the watch."

So what becomes of this piece of movie history when the film wraps? "At the end that goes back to Jerry," he said. "Jerry is at the head of the pyramid. If Tom is at the crest at the top, Jerry is just a little bit higher." Damn.

Of course, there's one last watch that caught everyone's eye while they stuffed their face with popcorn in a packed theater. That would be the vintage Rolex Explorer worn by Jennifer Connelly in the film. Where did that one come from?

"That watch actually came from one of the producers' wives," Duncan said. "She had one and then we were able to get another one. It is a beautiful vintage Rolex." Yes, Robbie, yes it is."

Top Gun: Maverick (starring Tom Cruise) is directed by Joseph Kosinski with props by Robbie Duncan. The Oscar-nominated film is now available to rent or buy on iTunes and Amazon.

Tom Cruise earns his wings as a watch-collecting maverick with a Vacheron Constantin

By Thor Svaboe

You would think Tom Cruise 's watch collection would be chock-a-block with everything from a daily platinum Rolex Daytona to bussed-down Richard Milles. But that’s where you’re wrong – Tom Cruise's watches have been playing a quiet game for most of his career.

But what has Maverick actually been wearing over the years, and why was his choice of wrist candy in Cannes last week for the premiere of Top Gun: Maverick a game-changer for Cruise’s horological street-cred? Take a closer look at Tom Cruise's watch collection and you’ll get the picture.

The late nineties icon Breitling Chronomat

Nothing says the late nineties and peak Mission Impossible fame like a brash, bold Breitling Chronomat. True to his Maverick roots, Tom can make even this bulky beast look just right, while a lit Cartier Tank would be too discreet for his Alpha Male credentials. Today we look back at big-wrist glamour with nostalgia, it might even make your buzzing silicon valley pebble feel too techy for its own good.

Steel Rolex Datejust with Roman numerals

Judging from plenty of online snaps from the previous decade, this might just be a fave everyday watch for The Cruise. The Roman numerals on his DJ make it a lateral, sensible but risky proposal. Ostensibly, this is one of the few accessible Rolex references out there and will look great with the right outfit. Get it wrong though, and you’ll look like that junior bank manager in Slough still waiting for a promotion to Head Office after 15 years of grey polyester-mix suits.

The Panerai connection

Cruise has a deep affinity for the ’00s, and his love for Panerai is the big-diameter Italian proof. They might have fallen off the radar lately, but his action movie-wrists are big enough to pull off such a watch. Both on-screen in Tropic Thunder and while in convo with Oprah he was spotted wearing the heavy metal choice of a Panerai Luminor on a bracelet.

Offbeat French style with the Calibre de Cartier

Lately, Tom Cruise has kept up his quirk choice of late noughties wristwear with the Calibre de Cartier. This is the brawny steel sports watch Cartier recently – and quietly – faded out, so maybe Cruise is onto something. Given the soaring values of Cartiers in today’s market, could this be a sleeper hit?

The game-changing Vacheron Constantin

In a 50-minute on-stage feature interview in Cannes this week, it seems someone has (finally?) taught Cruise a lesson on Haute Horology as he was sporting a Vacheron Constantin . And not just any Vacheron, but an ultra-thin grail. The £110K Vacheron Constantin Overseas Perpetual Calendar Ultra-Thin is one of the sleekest examples of the mastery within Vacheron Constantin today.

By Finlay Renwick

By Patrick Sproull

With its delightful blend of understated white gold 41.5mm case with a slim cuff-friendly 8.1mm thickness, this is top-tier Swiss with a twist. The Overseas range used to be the forgotten cousin in the race for integrated-bracelet stardom. And while the Patek Philippe Nautilus and Audemars Piguet Royal Oak have had their days of Christie’s and Phillips catalogue front page monopoly, a change is afoot. Vacheron Constantin’s superb alternative is catching up in the hard-to-get stakes, and Mr Cruise has taken sound advice. With his effortless Cannes look of sleek all-black (some say Armani) trousers and cotton jumper, the Vacheron stole the limelight with its scintillating blue dial.

What about Tom Cruise’s big-screen watches?

With the exception of epitomising car salesman-chic with a solid gold Rolex Day-Date in Rain Man , Tom’s astute on-screen choices of wristwear have been as understated as his off-screen persona. In Vanilla Sky , Tom’s choice was the small-cased pilot’s watch, the IWC Mark XV. But his fans will know that this was not nearly half as quirky as his off-beat Tudor Heritage Chrono in Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol from 2011. In the comedy action-romp Tropic Thunder we have a suspicion Cruise followed his own love for Panerai with a Luminor Marina. Or could it be that he was actually inspired by Sly himself, the man behind Panerai’s resurgence?

Tom Cruise Showcases Two Cartier Watches While Promoting ‘Top Gun: Maverick’

Movies are Tom Cruise’s true passion , but he cares about other things, too. Like watches.

The Top Gun: Maverick star has taken advantage of the return of the multi-week, globe-spanning publicity tour to show off his horological taste. Last week, that meant wearing not one but two exquisite Cartier timepieces while promoting the blockbuster in South Korea.

The first of those timepieces, a Calibre chronograph, could be seen on the actor’s wrist as soon as he got off the plane at Gimpo Airport in Seoul. The watch was introduced by the French brand in 2010 and was its first powered by an in-house movement, hence its name. Unlike Cartier’s most famous model, the Tank, it features a round 42 mm stainless-steel case that is attached to a matching bracelet by some rather prominent lugs. Under its scratch-resistant crystal is a white face with prominent Roman numeral hour markers, luminous hands, 12-hour and 30-minute sub-dial and a date aperture at 6 o’clock. It has a power reserve of 48 hours and is water-resistant to up to 328 feet. No longer in production, it can regularly be found at online marketplaces, like Chrono24 , for a little over $9,000.

Cruise displayed another Cartier, this time a Santos de Cartier, days later at a press event in South Korea’s capital city. Unlike the Calibre, it has the rectangular shape that the brand’s watches are most commonly associated with. The timepiece, which GQ notes was designed at the behest of pilot Alberto Santos Dumont, has a 39.8 mm stainless steel case that houses a silvered opaline dial with Roman numeral hour markers, blue sword-shaped hands and a date window at 6 o’clock. At its heart is the calibre 1847 MC automatic winding movement and it’s also water-resistant up to 328 feet. Unlike the actor’s other watch, it’s still in production and is available directly from the brand for $7450.

Cruise may have only worn Cartiers in South Korea, but he’s not a one-brand timepiece kind of guy. When Top Gun: Maverick premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May, an ultra-thin Vacheron Constantin peeked out of the cuff of his tuxedo. And in the film itself, his titular character can be seen wearing a Porsche Design chronograph .

Top Gun: Maverick features the same chronograph worn by Tom Cruise in the original

By Parth Charan

The 1986 blockbuster film Top Gun was the ultimate, machismo-filled tribute to aviation, ever caught on camera. The aviator shades, bomber jackets, confounding but cool pilot lingo – there wasn’t a single cultural aspect of America’s naval might that was left out in this movie. So it stands to reason that Tom Cruise’s Pete “Maverick” Mitchell would pick out his trusted pilot’s watch pretty carefully, given that out there, in Viper’s words you “have to push it’. Making Mav’s Chrono as much of an indispensable ally as his co-pilot GUnlike Goose, the chronograph survived to see 2022. The new film Top Gun: Maverick features the same Porsche Design Chronograph 1 worn by Cruise in the original. Now Porsche isn’t the first word that comes to mind when thinking of pilot watches. That word would be Breitling or IWC, the latter having its own dedicated Top Gun line of watches, worn by the rest of Maverick’s hotshot crew in the film. But we reckon Porsche has a longstanding association with the movie, given that both of Maverick’s love interests drove Porsches (Kelly McGillis driving a 356 while Jennifer Connelly drove a ‘72, air-cooled 911). Gotta go with Porsche if you feel the need for speed.

This chrono wasn’t built by the Stuttgart-based car brand. The Porsche Design Chronograph 1 was built by Orfina. Cruise said during a red carpet interview that he borrowed the watch from film producer Jerry Bruckheimer (who promptly took it back, the second the shooting concluded). Popularised in the 70s and 80s, these Orfina built chronographs featured a Valjoux movement, a blacked-out interface. The dial was designed to serve as a speedometer on the wrist. It stood out not only because it was a movie-star but because it featured a crisp, legible interface that was easier to read than what most busy-looking chronos can manage, even today.

The watch featured a special kind of black coating, that kicked-off a black Chrono craze, that’s being capitalised by the IWC Top Gun watches (which are dedicated to the actual academy and not the movie, as it turns out). Orfina achieved this by giving the watch both PVD and DLC coating, which explains why the dark texture has held up so well even after three-and-a-half-decades.

Have you watched the new TOP GUN movie yet? I wonder who will not fall in love with those pilots who flew cool in this 2022 blockbuster. In this Top Gun 2 movie, most of people are fascinated by its exciting flight scenes. I am sure watch enthusiasts indeed would check out the wrists of the pilots. 

After more than 30 years since its original release, the new TOP GUN: Maverick was released earlier in 2022. The ageless Tom Cruise, also known as “Maverick” in the movie, is assigned back to the Top Gun flight school to train a team of school graduates for a special mission. Except Tom Cruise himself, who wears the same Orfina Porsche Chronograph as the initial release from 1986, every young crew of his team wear a IWC pilot watch . These watches we can see ain’t just some product placements, but there are also stories behind.

During the movie, Tom Cruise was always accompanied by his Orfina x Porsche Design Chronograph which was the same model from the first Top Gun release in 1986. Tracing back to the early 1970s, Porsche Design introduced its first watch model from the inspiration of the Porsche 911 luxury car. The watch was an all-black chronograph which was very rare at the era and it began a PVD watches trend in the watchmaking industry. 

For decades, Porsche Design watches were basically sharing similar case and dial designs and fitted with Valjoux movements. They also had collaborations with a few other brands, such as Heuer and LeJour, and released and shared similar case, dial, and overall styling with a few other brands during those decades. Their watches used to be made by Orfina, then by IWC . Today they are producing on their own. 

Some of the most famous models are the Valjoux 7750 and the Lemania 5100 models. These are said to be the same watch that were found in both Top Gun 1 and Top Gun 2 releases on Tom Cruise’s, a.k.a Pete ‘Maverick’ Mitchell, wrist. 

IWC Pilot Watches in Top Gun 2

In the Top Gun Maverick movie, the young and elite fighter pilots in Tom Cruise’s team, can be seen wearing IWC watches . These watches were spotted on at least 3 characters: Robert “Bob” Floyd portrayed by Lewis Pullman, Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw portrayed by Miles Teller, and the female aviator Natasha “Phoenix” Trace portrayed by Monica Barbaro. In the movie, these aviators are introduced as highly competitive, capable, being in the top 1% of Navy pilots. So why would these elites pick a IWC watch instead of others? 

In the real world, IWC has a deep relationship with the US Navy Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor program. With a long heritage in producing reliable tool watches, IWC has been an honored partner with Top Gun flight school and supplies its pilot watches to the aviators and instructors. The brand named this series the IWC Top Gun SFTI models. This has resulted in confidential models only available to real pilots, yet the brand has also released a number of SFTI models to the general public. 

IWC has kept releasing updated models for this special collection. For instance, in 2018, IWC added two special editions to the collection in honor of the US Navy Naval Aviation community. These watches were inspired by the “Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor” models which are only available for Top Gun graduates. One is the Pilot’s Watch Mark XVIII Edition SFTI IW324705 and then is the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Edition SFTI IW389004. They are both black ceramic models with an eye-catching Navy Fighter Weapons School patch on the dial at 9 o’clock. 

With no surprises, these watches are the ones that can be seen on the flight recruits in Top Gun 2. These are almost the same watches that the real-life aviators from the “Top Gun” Navy Fighter Weapons School would actually wear. In 2017, the Top Gun IWC line became a part of the brand’s Pilot’s Watch collection, so if you want to taste a bit of how it’d look like to be a Top Gun aviator, here are a few exceptional choices and latest models for you. 

IWC Pilot’s Watch Mark XVIII Top Gun Edition SFTI IW324705

The IWC Mark Series is considered as one of the best military watches in history. This ever-lasting watch lineup has been through many evolutions and now it comes in the Mark XVIII version. The latest IWC Mark XVIII edition embodies all the advanced design elements and innovative functionality needed for a larger pilot watch . The 40 mm case is made from automotive titanium 5N, to enhance its durability, light-weight, and skin-friendliness for comfortability. Just like other Top Gun editions, the Navy Fighter Weapons School patch is placed at 9 o’clock on the dial.

IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Top Gun Edition SFTI IW389004

Now Confirmed, Tom Cruise Brings Back the PVD Porsche Design Chronograph in “Top Gun: Maverick”

We somehow spotted it 2 years ago, but it is now confirmed.

Two years ago, when we thought the sequel to what’s undeniably the best pilot’s movie of all times (sorry, I stand by it…) was about to be released, our resident watch spotter Nick Gould gave us a hint on the watch to be worn by Naval Aviator Lieutenant Pete “Maverick” Mitchell in Top Gun: Maverick … Even though the launch of the movie had to be postponed – thanks Covid – the watch in question could be glimpsed (not in the best possible way though) in the trailer. And as Top Gun: Maverick is now about to be released, we got the final confirmation. Indeed, Tom Cruise will again wear a cult black-coated Porsche Design Chronograph in the 2022 sequel, just like he was in the 1986 movie Top Gun . And this is objectively quite cool!

Back to basics. The original movie Top Gun was released in 1986, starring Tom Cruise as Naval Aviator Lieutenant Pete “Maverick” Mitchell. A trained pilot with talent but also a certain love for disrespecting the rules, he and his Radar Intercept Officer Nick “Goose” Bradshaw will be selected to attend TOP GUN, the Naval Fighter Weapons School at Naval Air Station Miramar. This 1986 movie, which is often considered a proper cult element of the 1980s pop culture (and so is the music), made quite an impact on my generation… How many of us have dreamed of being behind the stick of an F-14 Tomcat fighter…?

There was a watch involved in the movie. Indeed, on his wrist, Tom Cruise portrayed Pete “Maverick” Mitchell with a Porsche Design Chronograph with a black PVD coating, produced by Orfina – we had some questions regarding if the watch was powered by a Lemania 5100 or a Valjoux 7750, but with new images we found, it appears that the watch was then powered by a Valjoux, which is visible thanks to the counter at 12 o’clock with a minute counter and 10/20/30 markings, and not a 6/12/18/24 track like in the Lemania version.

Pete “Maverick” Mitchell’s Porsche Design Orfina blackened watch is visible throughout the entire movie. And just like the film has gained cult status, the watch also became even more famous after its release in theatres – yet, one has to remember that this specific model is important historically, since it was the first watch released (launched in 1972) with a black PVD coating, as well as being the first watch ever produced by the brand. And to make it even better, this model celebrated this year its 50th anniversary with a faithful re-edition .

Two years ago, when the movie was about to be released, and before being postponed, our resident spotter Nick, thanks to the trailer published by Paramount Pictures, could have a glimpse at a watch … and it appeared to be a blackened watch, with high possibility to be again a Porsche Design Chronograph. And Nick, through his Instagram account @niccoloy , has again broken the news, sharing an image that leaves no doubt about the nature of the watch in question. The watch we happened to love in the 1986 Top Gun movie is back in 2022, on the wrist of Tom Cruise as he portrays Pete Mitchell in Top Gun: Maverick .

What we know for sure now is that it’s a Porsche Design Chronograph, with a black coating. What we don’t know yet exactly is the model Tom Cruise will be wearing. Will it be a vintage PD x Orfina with Vlajoux 7750? Will it be the exact same watch as in the 1986 movie, or another, equivalent watch? Could it be a modern re-edition? It seems that the watch visible in the images and in the trailers, is in far better condition than the watch seen in the original Top Gun movie, where the coating was partially gone. Here, in Top Gun: Maverick , Tom Cruise seems to be wearing a model in pristine condition, with a black coating covering entirely the watch and the bracelet.

The answer to this precise question will probably be easier to give once Top Gun: Maverick  has been released in theatres, which is expected to be on May 27, 2022. The film will premiere at CinemaCon on April 28, 2022, and will also have a screening at the Cannes Film Festival on May 18, 2022.

Porsche Design reissued the Chronograph 1 for the first time in the late 2000s. Maybe Tom is wearing one of these reissues. They have the Valjoux 7750.

Who still wears watches? With all the tech we have nowadays, watches are so redundant as to be useless. The watch is now merely jewelry for the vain, the indulgent or the technophobe.

For some people obviously a watch is just something to tell time. For me a watch is much more than that… Is a piece to appreciate the beauty of his dial, case, movement. Is a piece that has memory and still creating a story. Is a piece that at times we can walk in a meeting and tell the people who we are. Yes is also a jewelry piece that at times we can FLEX. Is no different than the guy who drives a 911 porsche instead of a Nissan Sentra.

People think they are so advanced when they say that. Checking the time on your phone is like going back in time to pocket watches. It took time and tech to get to the wristwatch ❗ Also, what do you think about tattoos and earrings ❓

Not just the best pilot movie of all time but the best movie full stop. The opening sequence of those jets screaming along the carrier deck is still mesmerizing. Watch on a big screen with bigger speakers !

Can’t beat he reall thing techbwatches are not hsnd made but computor made yep will stick with quality !!!

I worked for the AIR BOSS on the USS Lexington CVT16, Most pilots worn Rolex’s and Enlisted Omega’s ! Sorry Tom this is the Real World ! We have no SPONSOR’S!

See link: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p0c8hwgc/movies-with-ali-plumb-becoming-maverick-a-tom-cruise-top-gun-special

It’s the very same original TG watch however TC doesn’t own it and had to ask jerry Bruckheimer for a loan during filming.

@ James Hoyt. Wow the blue ghost! My uncle was on that ship when it was attacked by the Japanese during World War II at the battle of coral sea. That must be quite an honor to walk a ship, who so many heroes walked that same deck. God bless you for your services XO(executive officer)! God bless that ship for being a ship that was never meant to sink. My uncle Ed was part of the marine detachment aboard the USS Lexington that 8th day of May 1942 when the cowardly attacked our fleet. Again, God bless you for your services! My father was also a World War II veteran. May he and my uncle head rest in peace. The strange thing is; my dad could never come to terms with my uncle dying. My uncle Ed died on May 8, 1942, my father died on May 8, 2000. I think it’s safe to say; his brother came to get him and bring him home. God bless everybody out there. Whether you be active duty, reserves, first responders or anybody who protects his country. A lot of us truly respect and admire you for what you do.

Top Gun Maverick and all the watches…

Tom Cruise stirred up the watch scene once again as he was seen in Top Gun 2- Maverick, wearing a Orfina Porsche Design Chronograph 1. Of course its the same one his character had in Top Gun the Original. More than 30 years later Maverick not only has the same motorbike but the same watch!

The Chronograph 1 was Porsche’s first ever watch manufactured by Swiss maker Orfina. Porsche say its modelled from the inspiration of the Porsche 911 luxury car. Despite being released in 1973 it still holds its own amongst rival chronographs, with details such as its red second hand for legibility, something no Chronograph offed back in the day. It even began the ‘black black’ watch genre – first of the matte black aesthetic that is still around today.

There is a plain version and a German Military version. And its no shock that both Top Gun films took the pre-owned Orfina Porsche Design Chronograph price to huge heights. 

Alongside Tom in the film there are plenty of other watches to note – most of the fighter pilots wear an IWC watch. A Strike Fighter Tatics Instructor watch to be exact.

The watches seen are only available to graduates of the U.S. Navy Fighter Weapons School in real life. That’s a mere 1% of all naval pilots. IWC has long been partnering with the real life Navy Fighter Weapons School (actually called TOP GUN) – since 2007 to be precise.

IWC however have not missed out on this new movie opportunity, and have released several models to their range just based on Top Gun. Cant see them being on any fighter pilot’s wrist in the white version, but they are mighty cool and might grace a wealthy watch collector’s wrist instead.

Here at Watch Buyers we have a IWC Big Pilot Top Gun ‘Woodland’ in a much calmer shade of green – we love it!

We also have the IWC Big Pilot Top Gun Pilot’s Watch “Mojave Desert” – in its buff sand colour way giving a completely different look.

Love interest Penny Benjamin wears a rolex vintage explorer (- watch buffs are saying its a ref 1016)

Not just worth a watch for the aircraft and fighter pilots – but for these special watches too!

Porsche Design Chronograph 1 - Tom Cruise - Top Gun

Tom Cruise wears a  Porsche Design Chronograph 1  watch in the movie  Top Gun (1986) and he wears the watch once again in Top Gun: Maverick (2022).

In this article we will show you the EXACT model that Tom Cruise wears in the first Top Gun film.

The Porsche Design Chronograph 1 was the first watch with a black PVD coating, originally launched in 1972 this was a revolutionary watch. Designed by Ferdinand Porsche (designer of the Porsche 911), the watch was produced by Orfina.

There are variations of the watch, with different inner bezels and with Orfina logo and versions with "PD" (Porsche Design) logo.

The close up image on the left shows the exact variation of the Porsche Design Chronograph 1 worn by Tom Cruise: it's the reference number 7750, with on top of the bezel the "60" - "1 MILE" and the PD logo.

As can be seen in the film and the close-up images, the black PVD coating has worn off Tom's watch in the first Top Gun film. In the new Top Gun: Maverick film, the black PVD coating on the strap look immaculate, either from a restoration or by using a different watch.

An original Porsche Design Chronograph 1 in good condition can fetch close to $10,000.

Alternatives

If you're looking for an affordable alternative you could consider the Dan Henry 1972 Maverick model which is a very good replica of the watch, although on eBay even those watches can fetch around $800 .

Another copy of the Porsche is the Lorsa Valjoux 7750, which also still costs $699 on eBay .

A different looking black chronograph is for example the Bulova 98A186 on Amazon for $520 .  

In Top Gun: Maverick , we can also spot a lot of IWC watches. IWC provides watches to the real Top Gun school and offers a range of Top Gun branded watches.

A lot of the FA-18 aircrew are wearing issued Garmin Fenix watches. Could it be that?  

Looks like one of the old Porsche IWCs or Orfina to me Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That article has a lot of inaccuracies : in particular the Valjoux 7750 was presented to the pubblic (not released) in 1974. I got my PD restored by Orfina and I was told they never made watches before late 1975. For the images of the film, in the original Top Gun it was a very well worn 5100 (the PVD was in reality just a paint) while in the trailer of the new movie it appears it's a brand new watch.

Oh, this is an interesting page on military issues Porsche Design Orfina, definitely the last real pilot chonograph of the West, therefore appropriate for Maverick: Research project: Orfina/Porsche-Design "MILITARY" chronograph dial variations  

Cuthbert... Thanks for posting that educational info.  

Thanks for all your informative posts. I was just re-watching Top Gun on a flight last night and wondered what watch he was wearing  

Good answers everyone!

Good posts Cuthbert  

Shouldn't a guy named, Mav... know?! (You even look like him!)  

This is a fun thread. Nice posts guys. I'm pretty stoked about the new movie and seeing the watch in action.  

I love the original Top Gun. I will always believe that is Tom Cruise's best movie. And a perfect movie. But it's also the first movie I ever saw him in, so he is Maverick to me. The new Top Gun seems to be a nostalgia trip so far with real flying similar to what Tom Cruise is doing in the Mission Impossible series. I'm not crazy about the director going from what he did with Tron Legacy, another 80s movie sequel.  

I don't know if everybody knows, or not, but the P-51 Mustang shown in some of the previews is Tom Cruise's personally owned aircraft. He has been a Mustang pilot for quite a number of years.  

I remember first seeing the mustang in a Mission Impossible 3 special. I try not to watch those marketing shows but Tom Cruise was at his home as well and I was curious about his setup. If he showed any wild cars, motorcycles, or a crazy home theater. It was cool how he collected signed scripts from all his movies. So I watched bits and pieces of the show attempting not to spoil Mission Impossible 3, even though that movie wasn't that good in the end.  

cuthbert Off topic, but what car is that in your picture? I consider myself a gearhead but don't recognize the emblem!

That's the all new electric Euro Yugo. It features turn signals, AM radio and same-day acceleration 0 to 60mph.  

I didn't know Tom Cruise flew his own P-51. That's legit.  

In addition to his Mustang, he has a Pitts Special too. I wonder if he's logging his 2 seat FA-18 time. :-!

CitizenPromaster said: On topic, I think Porsche Design gave him a refurbished original or simply a NOS re-issue P'6510 (steel) or P'6540 (titanium)... Click to expand...

That’s super cool – wonder if they have a re-issue in the works? Nothing in their current catalog really has “fighter pilot” written on it, though the Monobloc Actuator is pretty neat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk  

Perhaps a re-issue with the centre minute movement that's also fitted in the Sinn 140A, EZM10, and various Tutima models...?  

This, or PD's excellent GMT movement module shoe-horned into the classic chronograph case.  

dinexus said: I thought I remembered hearing rumblings awhile back that it would be an IWC (especially given their involvement in the Miramar flight school with this year's Top Gun releases) but the new Maverick trailer dropped today, and that bracelet and case profile look nothing like anything IWC's made to date. Let the speculation begin. View attachment 14706973 Click to expand...
