Steve Martin as Neal Page wears a Piaget Polo 18K Gold Quartz watch in the movie Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987).

The watch gets a very good close-up early in the film. Later, Steve Martin's character trades the Piaget watch for a night in a hotel.

The Piaget has a gold case and black leather strap. It's possibly the reference number 8273 (with 27mm case) but a similar model is the 8673 (31mm).

Steve Martin's travel partner Del Griffith, played by John Candy, wears a Casio A159W.

With thanks to From Tailors With Love for spotting the watch
