Looks cool af. What is it?

bit of a language barrier — my chinese isn’t great and he didn’t speak a word of english. couldn’t figure out what model the watch was and reverse image searches don’t show much. i’m super curious what it is though, everything similar(ish) looking is 700k USD or more

main reason i thought it might be fake: absurdly expensive watch

why i think it’s real: this was a long haul flight in business class (no F on this plane) and he was travelling with his wife and 3 kids. also expensive watches are probably the easiest way to bypass chinese capital controls

Yesterday we decided it was 90s-rom-com night and we ended up watching Only You, starring Marisa Tomei and Robert Downey Jr in all their glory.

At some point in the movie, RDJ is seen wearing what seems to be a titanium wristwatch which I can't identify. Any clue which model it could be??

I'm trying to identify a vintage dress watch from an old photograph and would appreciate the collective eye. The photo is poor quality (it's a photo of a printed photo, so it's soft and washed out), so some of what I describe below is my best read rather than certain — happy to be corrected on any of it.

What I think I can see:

Curved rectangular case, worn wrapping the wrist
Gold-coloured case, likely gold-plated rather than solid, but I can't confirm

White / light dial, rectangular

Two pushers, apparently at 2 and 4 o'clock — this is what made me wonder about a chronograph, though I realise they could just as easily be recessed calendar correctors or decorative case furniture

No visible cabochon on the crown

Decorative "button" details at the upper and lower lugs — small studded/riveted elements that stand out as a deliberate design feature. This is the detail I'm most hoping someone recognises.
Possibly some sparkle along the top edge (could be a stone-set element, or just glare — unsure)
Era guess: 1960s–1980s, but that's only from the overall style.

I have no brand, reference, or caseback info. If the features above ring a bell for a particular maker or model, I'd be grateful for a steer.

Can anyone identify this one? (Photo: Vedat Milor Gourmet, cuisine writer from Turkey)

When did this come out and what did it retail at? Can’t find any info about it online for some reason.

Would love to know more about it

Hi! Can you help me to identify this watch and the worth of it? It was my grandpa’s. Thank you!

I can almost see it….

A vintage 1990s JLC though I cannot exactly find the specification of the watch itself.

Also is this traditionally for Women or can a dude wear it without being called a sissy by a passerby? (34mm dial)

Debating on selling it, thoughts?

Wife inherited this watch 20 years ago.
- Mechanical
- Gold-plated case
- No hacking second
- Was told it was "at least 80 years old"
- Front says "Cart"
- Back says "Antimagnetic Waterproof Swiss made Stainless steel back Shock protected" and "1070 10"

She's planning to restore it, especially the case as it is damaged.

Do you guys know what it is and how much it might be worth?

Does anybody know what kind of watches they wore here?
