Walter White’s Watch in *Breaking Bad*

What watch does Walter White wear in Breaking Bad? That’s a question you probably asked yourself while watching season 5 of Breaking Bad a year ago.

I asked myself the very same question today while watching episode 4… and found the answer in a few seconds… humility…

Walter White, also known as Heisenberg, receives a watch from Jesse Pinkman for his birthday.

The watch’s easily recognisable case immediately points you in the right direction—confirmed once you catch the blue dial with its two square white sub-dials and red hands.

So it’s a TAG Heuer Monaco Automatic Chronograph Calibre 12.

It would seem Pinkman, his partner, was inspired in choosing a chronograph that turns out to be rather handy for cooking methamphetamine, precisely timing the “cooking” stages.

The 39 mm satin-finished steel case isn’t imposing in diameter, but it does look a little thick on Heisenberg’s wrist.
