So, flipping thru channels yesterday, spotted Peter Fonda sporting what looks to be a 6159. It was huge! The movie is a typical Golan/Globus 1988 shoot them up piece of crap. Poor acting, poor plot, you can almost see the trampolines that the stuntmen blow up from. "Mercenary Express", avoid like the plague, tuna is the highlight, and even that kept me watching only long enough to snap a decent photo. Next time "Roadhouse" comes along I'll snap a pic of a tuna that I spotted there on the wrist of the martial arts muscle who had the biggest beef with Swayzee. Rob  |

On a Roadhouse related note, in that final fight scene between Swayze and Marshall Teague, they were apparently going full contact and beat the crap out of each other.

To stay in the mercenary movie theme. "Dogs Of War". Shannon's journalist buddy in Zangaro is definitely wearing a Seiko. At first I thought it was a 6309, just on strap width alone. Another shot hints at rectangular markers, so maybe a 6105? Rob   |

Book is so much better than the movie. Remember seeing it at the movies in the early 80's and was greatly dissapointed.

Looks like a symmetrical case 6105 to me.

I watched Apollo 13 the other night and I’m sure Ed Harris (Gene Kranz) was wearing a blue dialled 6139-6005 rather than a 6119-8460.
