The star of martial arts comedies, Jackie Chan, found himself instantly drawn to Felix Baumgartner’s muscular creations at a private presentation in Paris (photo) and quite naturally asked to wear them on-screen. Launched in China although not yet in Europe, Chinese Zodiac shows three very unexpected UR-202s worn by Jackie Chan and his team. This is a great piece of exposure for Urwerk, and all the more so because the hilarious actor even manages to take photographs with his timepiece !

Hamilton & Bruce Willis

You don’t change a winning team. In the Die Hard saga, Bruce Willis once again wears a Hamilton but has picked a new model. After Die Hard, Back to Hell, the toughest guy of successful action films shows up in Die Hard, a Beautiful Day to Die  with a Hamilton Jazzmaster Viewmatic on his wrist (a classic style that is surprising for Bruce Willis who may have a double personality?) In the film, his charming and muscular son, Jai Courtney, wears a watch that is better suited to elevated testosterone levels – a Hamilton Khaki X-Patrol. Hamilton has adopted a habit of partnering with science fiction movies, such as the very futuristic 2001: A Space Odyssey by Stanley Kubrick, or more recently I am Legend and the very popular trilogy Men in Black.
