Producer Lewis Hamilton has secured unprecedented access to the paddock for the Apple+ movie F1, but until now, no surprising watches had been seen on the film's stars. That changed today when Brad Pitt was spotted wearing a vintage IWC Ingenieur with a green dial, a model that doesn't officially exist.

Sources confirm that Pitt's watch is an IWC Ingenieur “Jumbo” SL Automatic ref. 1832 from 1976 with a custom green dial. This could mean it’s either a unique commission for Pitt, aligning with the IWC-themed production, or a meticulous creation by the prop department.

This custom IWC Ingenieur may signal the next chapter in Pitt's watch-collecting journey, focusing on more personal and unique pieces.
