What Watch Would Patrick Bateman Wear Today?
In 2000 he wore a DateJust 16013; what would he wear as a Psycho today?
Daytona? |

In the novel, he was from a super wealthy family, and given his penchant to be supreme (i.e., the business cards of his colleague being far better), I would see him wearing Patek.
If Rolex, PM Daytona. SkyDweller or DayDate maybe? |

I’ve only seen the movie once and never read the book but I’m thinking he would want something easily recognizable. He wants his superiority to be known. I think he’d still go with a Datejust or Day-Date.

Given that he is obsessed with things that are hard to come by(a good Rez, a better apartment) and likes classic brands.. i’d say
Ceramic Daytona or 5711-1a .. even though he could afford anything he wanted. He wants to fit in. |

5711-1a with the blue dial for sure.
And I'm sure he has the 2018 SS Pepsi incoming! However, seeing as he couldn't get a reservation at Dorsia, I'm adding to the narrative that he couldn't get an allocation and is paying premium with a grey, all while telling everyone he got it at retail from an AD |

If I were a betting man I'd say a PM Sky-Dweller from Rolex OR a 5711 Blue from Patek!

I suppose if he liked the DJ then he will like it now.

Didn't you have any wall posters of any celebrity in your room while growing up? I didn't have access to the internet back then and again neither had I owned any smartphone nor had any expensive watches ! Jason Bateman was my teen idol and I grew up watching his TV sitcoms and movies. Did you know he is also a WIS and has a 1979 Rolex Daytona ? Can you identify Jason's watch in this picture? I had one just like him...

I figured we were all grownups here (just busting your chops). I have no idea what kind of watch he's wearing in that picture. |
