Remember Christopher Walken in Pulp Fiction? I think a movie about a watch is do-able. "... so your father hid the Oyster in the only place he could..."

My favorite TRF member - JJ Irani. Gone but not forgotten, possibly the most enthusiastic Rolex fan I've come across, bless his soul.

The movie ticket will be hideously expensive but The BlueRay won't be too bad and of course will hold its value pretty well on the second hand market. Also, will people with fake Rolex watches buy bootlegged copies ?

I could see some comedy actors in on this one.

With the: nicknames; I put a tiny scratch on it; valuation; and does this look big; threads. I feel it would be more written in a comedic form in modern times.

Possibly a Will Ferrel and John C Riley Stepbrothers’esque type thing.
