"Actor's Watch" focuses on the watches worn by actors active in movies, television, etc.
In this 167th installment, we will introduce Chris Hemsworth 's favorite watch .

Chris Hemsworth is popular for his role as Thor, the main character in the superhero movie "Thor " series. His handsome looks and well-trained physique have captivated female fans all over the world, and he is affectionately known in Japan as " Chris Hemsworth." However, his performance as a "pathetic man whose only redeeming features are his good looks and muscles" in " Ghostbusters " (2016) is also truly excellent, and he is highly regarded by a small number of people as being second to none in Hollywood when it comes to playing such roles.

In this issue of "Actor's Watch," we will be introducing his watch collection.

Let's start with a familiar brand. " Spider-Head " (2016), a sci-fi suspense movie that depicts the dark side of a prison where inmates are used for clinical trials of new drugs. Chris Hemsworth wore a Rolex Day -Date Ice Blue (Ref. 228396TBR) at the premiere.

Although it is a luxurious model with baguette diamonds set on the bezel and index, the combination of the refreshing ice blue dial and platinum gives it a cool and intellectual image. Perhaps it was a choice that matched the atmosphere of the "cold-headed scientist" he played in this film.

Next is a shot from the 2023 F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Chris Hemsworth shares a warm embrace with Lewis Hamilton, a top F1 driver who has won seven World Grand Prix titles, tying him with Michael Schumacher for the most in history.

The yellow gold watch that stands out on his wrist is a Royal Oak Chronograph (Ref. 26240BA.OO.1320BA.01 ) , a collaboration between Matthew Williams , former creative director of Givenchy and founding designer of his own brand, 1017 ALYX 9SM, and Audemars Piguet. Although it is a luxurious watch made of solid gold, its solid design reflects Matthew Williams's specialty, industrial worldview, and exudes the functional beauty of an F1 car.

Bvlgari

Octo Finissimo [Ref. 102912 ]

Next up is the premiere of " Thor: Love and Thunder " (2022), the fourth film in the " Thor " series, which was Chris Hemsworth's breakthrough work. What can be seen from the sleeve of the uniformly black styling is likely the Bulgari Octo Finissimo (Ref. 102912 ) .

Like the Royal Oak, this is a solid gold watch with an edgy and solid image, with a striking composition of circles and straight lines. It seems that he likes watches with this kind of design. By choosing a model made of 18KYG (yellow gold) or 18KPG (pink gold) rather than the popular SS (stainless steel), he exudes a refined sexiness that is typical of a Hollywood star.

Tag Heuer

Lastly, here is Chris Hemsworth, who appeared on the American TV show " The Tonight Show " in December 2015. Since it was the Christmas season, he was wearing a TAG Heuer Monaco Calibre 11 (Ref. CAW211P.FC6356) as he played a silly Santa.

As mentioned earlier, Chris Hemsworth is such a big fan of motorsports that he goes to F1 Grand Prix races. He also played James Hunt, a top racer at the time, in the 1970s F1 racing film " Rush " (2013). In the film, he wore a rare vintage Heuer Carrera chronograph (Ref. 1158CHN) . The Caliber 11 Monaco is a fitting choice for someone with such a strong connection to motorsports.

summary

What did you think?

His taste seems to be in watches that exude adult sexiness, such as solid gold Royal Oak and Octo , which are sporty yet dressy and luxurious. While he plays a strong hero, he exudes not only strength but also a cuteness that tickles the maternal instinct. Perhaps there is a secret to his taste.

Now, Chris Hemsworth's next film is " Mad Max: Furiosa ," which is scheduled to be released in Japan on Friday, May 31st. He plays General Dementus, the Warlord who leads the Biker Horde, a gang of bikers who kidnapped the young Furiosa from "Mother Green Earth." With a teddy bear on his waist, he's sure to be playing the role of a kind, uncle who loves cute things.

"Mad Max: Furiosa" is directed by George Miller , who has directed all five films in the series since the first one, " Mad Max " (1979). Judging from the trailer, it looks like a very powerful movie, hard to believe it was made by a 79-year-old director.

I apologize for talking about my personal matters, but I was so moved by the previous film, " Mad Max: Fury Road " (2015), that I ended up watching it 17 times at the cinema. I look forward to seeing how many times I'll go to the cinema for this one too! V8! V8! V8! V8!

see you!
