IWC Watches in an Upcoming F1 Film: A Partnership with Brad Pitt

2024-07-07 // SuperPodium
IWC has announced its partnership with an upcoming Formula One movie starring Brad Pitt and directed by Joseph Kosinski, where several models from the Pilot's Watches collection will be featured.

The age of the circular watch has come to an end. Shaped watches, such as divers, chronographs, and Calatravas, are now in trend. Baltic, a French independent brand established in 2016, offers a wide variety of vintage-inspired watches assembled in France.

The IWC Watches and Formula One Film

The highly anticipated Formula One movie set to release next year will star Brad Pitt and will be directed by Joseph Kosinski. Produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, Plan B Entertainment, and Lewis Hamilton's production company, the film has sparked speculations about a possible tie-in with IWC. Recently, the brand confirmed that several models from its Pilot's Watches collection will be featured in the movie.

IWC has a strong relationship with Formula One racing, particularly with the Mercedes-AMG Petronas team, for which they have been the Official Engineering Partner since 2013. It is common to see IWC watches on the wrists of team members. In the upcoming film, Brad Pitt will portray a veteran driver returning to the sport after an absence, racing for the fictional APX GP team, sponsored by IWC.

The film, currently in production, is scheduled for release in June 2025. It is being shot in and around actual Formula One races, including the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.

Threads: One Year of Progress

Threads, a competitor to Twitter, has made significant strides in its first year. Although it hasn't overtaken Twitter, it has gained popularity by adding new features that integrate it more closely with Facebook and Instagram. As the platform continues to evolve, it aims to fully compete with other social media giants.

The Realism of "The Bear"

As a new season of "The Bear" premiered, discussions about its accuracy in depicting the restaurant world have resurfaced. This particular season focuses on the world of fine dining, offering viewers a more specific insight into the industry. The show explores various aspects of the restaurant business, including ever-changing menus and the financial challenges of running a restaurant.

"The Bear" has become a popular show due to its relatable portrayal of the restaurant industry. Spoilers for the third season abound, so be cautious if you haven't caught up yet.
