Nicholas Cage's Wrist Watch in National Treasure

What wrist watch does Nicholas Cage wear in National Treasure?

It’s a Rolex Submariner ref. 16610 if that’s all that you’re looking for. Here’s a link to what you need to know about this watch: https://swisswatchtrader.co.uk/blogs/news/rolex-submariner-16610

This watch plays a big part in the movie in two parts. First part is when he needs a $100 bill, so he lends the cashier his watch as collateral and then looks at the back and sees that the clock says 2:22 and realizes that the need to get to the next location by 2:22pm.

The second part comes right afterwards where he looks at his watch and realizes that it’s 3:00 pm. But then his sidekick tells him about daylight savings time, so they still have a few minutes to get to the location.

That’s it. It’s a fun adventure movie about a guy looking for treasure and in the end getting the girl. It’s in very similar vain as The Mummy as well as Indiana Jones.
