Chris Evans plays Captain America, a member of the superhero team "The Avengers " in the Hollywood film series "MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe)," which depicts the exploits of heroes from Marvel Comics, such as Iron Man and the Incredible Hulk.
Although he is a handsome actor with a handsome face, he is known as one of Hollywood's leading star actors for the fascinating gap between his appearance and his willingness to play villains and oddballs, such as the spoiled son of a wealthy family or a psychopathic assassin, in addition to heroes.
In this issue of "Actor's Watch," we will be focusing on Chris Evans ' watch.

Loki ( Tom Hiddleston ), who was exiled from the kingdom of the gods Asgard to the edge of the universe, encounters The Other, the leader of the alien race Chitauri, and joins forces to invade Earth. Loki returns to Earth using a wormhole and succeeds in stealing the "Cube," a super-energy material being researched at NASA.
The cube, which holds a terrible power, has fallen into the hands of evil, and humanity is on the brink of extinction. Nick Fury ( Samuel L. Jackson ), the director of the international peacekeeping organization SHIELD, takes the situation seriously and decides to form the strongest team of superheroes, the Avengers. At his persuasion, Tony Stark ( Robert Downey Jr. ), also known as Iron Man, and Captain America ( Chris Evans ), who has woken up from a 70-year slumber, stand up for peace on Earth.
The Avengers (2012) is the sixth film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the final film in Phase 1, which is the beginning of the series. Chris Evans, who plays Captain America in this film, wears a Hamilton Khaki Field Auto 42mm (Ref. H70555533) .
Unfortunately, there are no scenes where the watch can be clearly seen being worn, so instead, we will introduce an official Hamilton Facebook post that reads, " In the critically acclaimed and hugely successful 'The Avengers' (2012), this Khaki Field Auto was worn by Chris Evans, who played Captain America ."
Hamilton is currently a subsidiary of the Swiss Swatch Group, but originally started out as an American railroad watch manufacturer. In the 1910s, Hamilton watches were issued to the US Army fighting the Nazis, and were a familiar watch to Captain America , who became a superhuman through human experiments during World War II and became a hero, protecting "freedom" and "philanthropy."

The mysterious death of an elderly mystery writer. The writer's eldest daughter Linda ( Jamie Lee Curtis ) is a real estate mogul, her husband Richard ( Don Johnson ) is a cheater who spends all his wife's money, and his grandsons Ransom ( Chris Evans ) and Jacob ( Jaeden Martell ) are the perfect example of spoiled brats and neo-Nazis. The family of a wealthy best-selling author all have some kind of problem, and it wouldn't be surprising if anyone was the culprit.
The police determine the death of the elderly writer to be a suicide, but detective Benoit Blanc ( Daniel Craig ) arrives at the mansion at the request of an anonymous person and uses his natural powers of deduction to uncover the truth behind the case...

Knives Out (2019) is a mystery suspense film that pays homage to Agatha Christie's mysteries. Daniel Craig, the sixth James Bond, plays the goofy detective Benoit Blanc. Chris Evans plays Ransom, the grandson of a dead old writer and one of the suspects, the most hated member of the family. He plays a sinister, suspicious and disturbing man, 180 degrees opposite to Captain America, the hero of freedom and philanthropy.
The watch he wears in the film is a GMT watch with a Pepsi bezel. Although the details are not clearly visible, it is not a cheap watch, as he is a spoiled son living off the large sums of money his grandfather and mother make. It appears to have a plastic crystal, so it is probably a Rolex GMT Master (Ref. 16750) . It has been changed to a leather strap, and combined with his favorite sweater, it gives off a casual vibe.

A CIA agent visits Cortland ( Ryan Gosling ), who is in prison for murder, and offers him a deal: his release on the condition that he become an assassin (the Gray Man) who eliminates villains that the justice system cannot bring to justice.
After being released, Cortland becomes an agent of the secret unit "Sierra" and steadily carries out assassination orders from the CIA. One day, Cortland assassinates a man in Bangkok as instructed. However, just before he dies, the man tells Cortland that he is also a "Gray Man" of the CIA and that he is being eliminated because he has evidence of his boss's misconduct, and entrusts him with a data chip containing the evidence.
When the CIA mastermind finds out that evidence of corruption has fallen into Courtland's hands, he orders Courtland's former colleague Lloyd ( Chris Evans ) to track him down and eliminate him, setting off a global chase involving a group of skilled assassins.

The Gray Man (2022) is a streaming film based on the popular spy novel The Gray Man, produced with a budget of $200 million, Netflix's highest budget. The main character, the Gray Man "Sierra Six," is played by Ryan Gosling, who appeared in La La Land (2016) and Blade Runner 2049 (2017). Chris Evans plays Lloyd, a psychopathic CIA agent who relentlessly pursues him.
In this film, he is wearing the Hamilton American Classic Bolton (Ref. H13431553) . The Bolton was released in the 1940s, inheriting the Art Deco movement that flourished in New York in the 1920s and 1930s. This model is a reimagining of that design, reviving it as a heritage model for the modern era . This watch is characteristic of Lloyd, who likes the 60s look with his Ivy League cut, moustache, and tight patterned polo shirt.
summary
What did you think.
By the way, there have been several "Chrises" who have starred in comic book movies in recent years, such as Chris Hemsworth from "Thor" (2011), Chris Pine from "Wonder Woman" (2017), and Chris Pratt from "Guardians of the Galaxy" (2014), so many people may be confusing Chris Evans with any of them.
The " too many Chrises" problem is so serious that it has even become the subject of jokes, with people taking surveys on social media asking, "Which Chris is the most unnecessary?"
