A headline that notes Ryan Gosling is sporting a TAG Heuer watch is by no means revelatory. The watch world has long been aware of the fact that the actor has been a marquee ambassador for the brand since late 2021, ergo, he will always wear a TAG Heuer watch for public events and in roles for films. But, TAG Heuer does have a wide range of models in their collection. So, there is perhaps some excitement and anticipation in discovering which model he and the team will choose for him to sport next. Most recently, at the 96th Academy Awards, Gosling not only wore the new Plasma Diamant d’Avant-Garde 36mm while walking the red carpet, but also sported the rare high-end lab-grown diamond-adorned model during his already-cemented-in-history performance of I’m Just Ken. In terms of his next appearance on the big screen, it has been revealed that Gosling will be wearing a Carrera Chronograph 39mm Glassbox in the action-comedy The Fall Guy.The film’s synopsis reads: “Oscar nominee Ryan Gosling (Barbie, La La Land, Drive) stars as Colt Seavers, a battle-scarred stuntman who, having left the business a year earlier to focus on both his physical and mental health, is drafted back into service when the star of a mega-budget studio movie – being directed by his ex, Jody Moreno, played by Golden Globe winner Emily Blunt (Oppenheimer, A Quiet Place films, Sicario) – goes missing.”The particular model on his wrist is none other than the TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Glassbox 39mm ref. CBS2210.FC6534, a distinct configuration within the range that is based on the historic reverse panda reference 2447 NS. What makes it distinct, aside from its black dial and grey counters, is the fact that it has a date complication placed at the 12 o’clock position rather than the more typical 6.Ryan Gosling explains regarding the choice of watch: My character in The Fall Guy is a stuntman whose job is a matter of life and death especially if the timing isn't perfect. When he's forced to use his stunt skills in the real world, he needed a timepiece that can keep up and won't let him down. There was no more perfect choice than the TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph.TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph 39mm Glassbox pricing and availabilityThe TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph 39mm Glassbox is available now for purchase.
