In the Apple TV+ series Lessons in Chemistry, Brie Larson’s character sports a distinctive vintage wristwatch reminiscent of World War I trench watches. These watches were worn by soldiers in the trenches during WWI and were designed to be durable and easy to read in difficult conditions.
The watch in Lessons in Chemistry has several defining features, including a rotated dial with the 12 o’clock slightly to the right, a large and bold font for the Arabic numerals, and a crown located above the 12. These elements give the watch a rugged, utilitarian look that fits with the time period and the show’s themes of gender equality and scientific advancement.
