In the 2002 horror film Below, actor Nick Chinlund is seen holding an Elgin WWII Stopwatch. This is because the movie is set underwater in a submarine. Elgin is known for its vintage watches and this particular piece was made during WWII.
In the movie, Chinlund is merely credited as ‘Chief’. A fun fact about this movie is that it had a budget of $40,000,000 but only grossed $201,400 at box-office, making it a financial flop. Nonetheless, this Elgin stopwatch is still a thing of beauty, with its steel case and black face.
