Ryan Gosling’s Watch From The Drive Film
Today we’re going to be answering a question a lot of people have been asking, what was the watch worn in movie “Drive” starring Ryan Gosling in 2011. Well, here it is up close.
In the film the character portrayed by Ryan Gosling doesn’t have much, he does, however, have a beautiful watch that was gifted to him by his father. The decision was taken by Will Blount (prop master) with Ryan Gosling’s input to go for an Iconic watch, a Patek Philippe with a stunning genuine leather strap.
Obviously due to the very nature of filming with all sorts of stunts etc involved, the idea of using a genuine Patek Philippe watch would be crazy and impractical. They actually used between 5 & 6 replica watches to get all the filming completed. Normally I’m very against replica watches but for the sake of making a movie, I think it’s a fair and sensible choice of course.
