Carl F. Bucherer · Manero AutoDate
The model in detail
Meet the watch
In the third John Wick, the watch does not compete with the suit or action. Carl F. Bucherer explicitly names the model on Keanu Reeves’s character’s wrist: a Manero AutoDate with a white dial and black leather strap. It appeared in the film rather than being a later inspired reissue. The brand’s premiere article was published on 10 May 2019.
The manufacturer’s film article links to the specific Manero AutoDate 00.10908.08.13.01. Its steel case is 38 mm across and 8.75 mm high. Three hands and a date at 3 look almost deliberately simple—a fitting choice for a character who does not need another loud accessory.
The automatic CFB 1965 has a stated 42-hour reserve. Its movement is visible through a transparent caseback. There is no screen superpower here—no weapon or device connection. The interest is that the prop remains a real, wearable mechanical watch.
Details and limitations
Practical limitations remain. Its 3 bar water resistance calls for careful everyday handling rather than the hero’s adventures, and the leather strap dislikes water too. A 42-hour reserve means resetting after a sufficiently long break. The manufacturer gives no exact Uzbekistan price on the page, instead offering a price enquiry.
The photograph in this review is an official Carl F. Bucherer catalogue image, not a film frame. The manufacturer links this version’s page to its John Wick 3 article. That is stronger evidence than a casual selection of similar watches, but it does not replace frame-by-frame examination of the individual screen watch.
