[Tornado Cowboy] Glen Powell's favorite watch ~Actor's Watch #185~

"Twisters," a tornado panic movie released on July 19th, recorded the third highest opening box office revenue in the world in 2024. The movie is also a big hit in Japan, and the popularity of the main actor, Glen Powell, is probably increasing in Japan as well.

Tom Cruise, who co-starred with her in Top Gun: Maverick (2022), also came to support the film at the London premiere on July 9, and posted a photo of the two of them on social media with the comment, "What a fun night watching a movie with friends!"

"Actor's Watch" focuses on the watches worn by actors active in movies, television, etc.
In this 185th installment, we will be introducing the favorite watch of Glen Powell, also known as "Grepa," a promising young top star.

Constellation 41MM [Ref. 131.63.41.21.01.001 ]

First, let's start with the European premiere of "Twisters" in July 2024, where Tom Cruise also came to support the film. The watch peeking out from the sleeve of Glen Powell's casually dressed piping jacket is thought to be an Omega Constellation 41MM (Ref. 131.63.41.21.01.001).

The "Constellation" model, which means "constellation," is a popular model that, as its name suggests, features a star motif on the dial. This star symbolizes Omega's excellent record in the 1950s at the Geneva Observatory Competition, a competition for the precision of watches.

The Constellation is a popular dressy model in Omega's men's line, but this watch, which combines black ceramic and yellow gold, has a sporty and bold image. It suits his style, which is not too dressy.

Seamaster Aqua Terra Shade 38MM [ Ref.220.10.38.20.09.00 ]

Next up is a scene from the Korean premiere of the blockbuster "Top Gun: Maverick" (2022), which has grossed over $1.4 billion worldwide and earned over 13 billion yen in Japan. Glen Powell plays Hangman, a young pilot who is openly competitive with Maverick, played by Tom Cruise, and his fellow pilots. The watch he was wearing at the time is thought to be an Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Shade 38MM (Ref. 220.10.38.20.09.001).

Unlike the premiere of his lead role in "Twisters," Glen Powell is still a young Hollywood actor on the rise, and he has a slightly reserved and formal air about him. By choosing the unisex size Seamaster Aqua Terra, he exudes a cute air, which is a bit charming.

TAG Heuer

Carrera [ Ref.CBS2210.FC6534 ]

Next up is the Los Angeles premiere of "Twisters." Compared to his time in " Top Gun: Maverick, " Glen Powell is posing with a more star-like dignity. The watch he is wearing on his sophisticated khaki green wrist appears to be a TAG Heuer Carrera (Ref. CBS2210.FC6534).

Inspired by the rare 1960s model "Ref. 2447NS," this model features a rounded sapphire crystal, commonly known as a "glass box," that reproduces the domed windshield of the time. The reverse panda dial and vintage-processed amber-colored luminous material give this watch a 1960s feel.

In the film, Glen Powell plays a popular YouTuber who broadcasts tornadoes. This vintage model is perfect for his anachronistic character, the "Tornado Cowboy," who wears a ten-gallon hat.

IWC

Portuguese Chronograph [ Ref.IW371604 ]

Queer Eye is a popular reality show on Netflix where LGBTQ creators transform the appearance, personality, and room of unattractive clients into something beautiful . Here is a photo of Tan France and Glen Powell, the popular fashion experts who appear on the show.

Tan, who stars in Netflix's Queer Eye, and Glen Powell, who starred in the Netflix film Set It Up in the same year, appear in this photo posted to Tan's Instagram in 2018, which seems to have been a post showing the friendship between the "Netflix sync."

The watch that Glen Powell is wearing in this photo is the IWC Portuguese Chronograph (Ref. IW371604). Since its release in 1998, this long-selling model has maintained high popularity as the "first luxury watch" due to its versatility that can be worn with both a suit and a T-shirt. It suits Glen Powell in a T-shirt...

summary

What did you think?

Glen Powell is still on his way to stardom. He seems to be fond of popular models from Omega, Tag Heuer, and IWC that are "within reach of the average person," which gives him a sense of freshness.

I can't help but look forward to seeing what kind of watch this will be upgraded to as his star rank increases in the future.

Speaking of Glen Powell, many movie fans will remember him best for his role as Hangman in the blockbuster film "Top Gun: Maverick," in which he plays the "hateful but actually good guy" role.

Good news for all of you. According to reports from multiple media outlets across the US, a sequel to Top Gun: Maverick is in the works. Tom Cruise as Maverick, Miles Teller as Rooster, and Glen Powell as Hangman have been confirmed to reprise their roles from the previous film. Details are still unknown, but we look forward to seeing the finished film.

See you later!
