In this video we take a look at the history, evolution, and secret meanings of luxury watches—a statement accessory often worn by gentlemen, entrepreneurs, and gangsters. From Pablo Escobar's Rolex Day-Date (aka the President,) Bugsy Siegel's Bulova Clinton, and Lucky Luciano's Patek Calatrava, to the luxury timepieces worn by contemporary entrepreneurs, artists, and superstars, we'll explore the meaning behind their watch selections. I also discuss the brands most often associated with power, affluence, and success, the history behind some of their most popular watches, their cultural impact from cinema to music and fashion, and some of their more infamous associations. I conclude this video with an analysis of perhaps one of the best depictions of gangsterism on the silver screen—Al Pacino's portrayal of Tony Montana in the iconic 1983 movie Scarface. I discuss the surprising choice of an Omega watch for his character, and why in some scenes it was also rumored to be a Concord Delirium. Join me for another quintessential Urban Gentry episode where horology meets history, cinema, music, and pop culture.
