One of the most complicated horological pieces featured in cinema, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar plays a pivotal role throughout Doctor Strange. In an early scene, neurosurgeon Stephen Strange carefully selects this watch from an impressive collection housed in Swiss-made watch winders, immediately establishing his character as someone who appreciates precision and craftsmanship. The 39mm stainless steel watch, measuring just 9.2mm thick, features a perpetual calendar tracking day, date, month, year, leap year, and moon phases—making it thematically perfect for a character who manipulates time. The film version was specially customized with a solid caseback engraved with "Time will tell how much I love you - Christine" (instead of the retail model's transparent sapphire caseback), adding deep emotional significance.
