The movie " The Artist " didn't win 5 but 6 oscars.

As you know, " The Artist " had a big success, and won 5 Oscars. What you didn't know, till now, is that, in fact, the move won a 6th Oscar, the winner being the watch Jean Dujardin wore during the event... A Tribute To Deep Sea Alarm, the European Versio...  

Just watched "The Artist" yesterday!

As a tribute to the Oscar,well deserved array of statues as the movie is so beautiful,pure art! And well i couldn t expect any less,a man of that class has to own a "real"watch.....Wow! Mo

Oh yes..

 
 By: moc : February 27th, 2012-02:49
pure class...Bond really wanted to wear a JLC but had previous commitments Mo

LOL. Yes.

 
 By: amanico : February 27th, 2012-02:49

speaking of Bond...

 
 By: watchme : February 27th, 2012-05:22
JLC needs to get Ms. Broccoli to get Bond to wear a JLC AmVox to go with his car! I'm just saying... -Dean

Aaah, yes. ;)

The TTDSA is a watch that should definitely not be worn with a dinner jacket! By the way: there has been an interesting article in this Weekends FT about actors getting paid by brands for wearing their products for the awards. Christian

LOL, Schtroumph Grognon, I was waiting for your input!

 
 By: amanico : February 27th, 2012-03:09
Well, James Bond wore a Rolex under his Smoking, and nobody seemed to complain about that choice. Ok, not everybody is James bond.... I hear you. Now, I asked the same question to several people at JLC to be sure that Dujardin wore his own watch, and it s... 

On the same page

 
 By: Clavi : February 27th, 2012-06:27
Well, my first reaction was also on the inappropriateness of wearing that rugged watch at such a formal event. And also the inevitable doubt on the 'ambassadorship' and product placement (which gets me nervous, especially when seeing the ridiculous and ar...  

Maybe he didn't want to play it too serious? After all, he doesn't look too serious.

 
 By: amanico : February 27th, 2012-06:31
But in his position, everything is allowed, even if he wore a Hublol. Best, Nicolas

What's wrong with Hublot? LOL

 
 By: TdotBean : February 27th, 2012-08:10
I think he will be rather dashing with this You don't think so Regards Tyler...  

That is a watch for a King.

 
 By: amanico : February 27th, 2012-08:16
The King of Fusion, maybe. Cool watch, Tyler. Congratulations. Best, Nicolas

I'm not King yet. LOL

 
 By: TdotBean : February 27th, 2012-08:26
But let me promise you if one day I am. I'll get a dozens of these and made you guys wear it on the GTG with matching hats. Deal? FYI Patrice, you can swim with it too. The cat won't drown, it's dead. BTW I can see the TT DSA Europe is popular but I can s... 

There a few here, at AD's window shops.

 
 By: amanico : February 27th, 2012-08:29
This is the problem with JLC, they did the same thing with the Polaris, by the way. They send 200 watches at the same time... . So, loically, you should see several for sale till the end of this year. After, it will be another story, like for the Polaris.... 

C mon now...

 
 By: moc : February 27th, 2012-09:18
don t be silly....I said I loved the movie....Bond would never wear a magic gold watch! Mo

LOL.

 
 By: amanico : February 27th, 2012-10:03

Too logical to be interesting...

 
 By: foversta : February 27th, 2012-12:49
Come on Clavi, you can't be that serious... Jean Dujardin with such watch... too logical, too formal... the DSA is much more appropriate especially when he said "put***". Fx This message has been edited by foversta on 2012-02-27 13:24:34

I think he's the first and the only one to have said that word during the Oscars. ;)

 
 By: amanico : February 27th, 2012-13:24
That is .... Fresh. As his watch is. Best, Nicolas

The Reverso would have been the watch of choice ...

 
 By: HerrK : February 27th, 2012-07:24
as it would have been coherent with the film - as Clavi already pointed out. Concerning Bond: the Rolex was at least smaller. The TTDSA is so big that it even seems to obstruct the cuff from sliding down to the wrist. On authenticity: You cannot say that ... 

The TTDSA fits perfectly under a cuff...

 
 By: craniotes : February 27th, 2012-09:51
In fact, it is quite petite by modern standards, and wears no bigger than my matte-dial 16800. Now, whether or not it should be worn with a tux is an argument that I'll let the more sartorially-inclined debate, though to my admittedly philistine eyes it l...  

Oooh no! Quelle horreur! :)))

 
 By: amanico : February 27th, 2012-10:05

I love the TTDSA

 
 By: tgator96 : February 28th, 2012-19:25
And am a bit late to this post but I was thinking the same thing . . . "I'd never wear that with a tux." I do wonder if it was personal taste or product placement. But if the later, so many other wonderful choices from JLC . . . .

It would have been a product placement if he had kept it double sealed. ;)

 
 By: amanico : February 28th, 2012-20:57
Product placement, in French, that may mean investment. Did I get it right? Best, Nicolas This message has been edited by amanico on 2012-02-28 21:00:12

The new cool watch!

 
 By: fernando : February 27th, 2012-03:05
Matching it with a Tux. no less.

Great news

 
 By: Dje : February 27th, 2012-03:46
Hi Nicolas, This is obviously great news for JLC and great news for Jean Dujardin too, as he owns a great watch! Seriously congratulations to Mr Dujardin for his well done job! Best Dje

That's great

 
 By: Wizir : February 27th, 2012-05:34
But he should have bought a second DSA to perfectly match the event ... a US version ) LOL Cheers Gilles

Formidable!

 
 By: respo : February 27th, 2012-05:58
Well, I guess when you have a tuxedo on your back, and an Oscar in the hand, you may wear a diver on the wrist. Who can say no? It also helps when you are as dashing and charming as Dujardin. Congratulations to JLC for keeping such good company. respo

Not only is the guy a good actor, he has great taste in watches.

 
 By: grigo : February 27th, 2012-08:24
I just need to watch the movie now. Best regards, George

Well, I don't know what other watches he owns, and if only he has others.

 
 By: amanico : February 27th, 2012-08:25
But this one is pretty cool, for sure! Best, Nicolas

Good point.

 
 By: grigo : February 27th, 2012-08:31
I got carried away and figured that a guy that owned a DSA must have only good taste in watches, but it is true that I do not know what else he owns. Best regards, George

Iconic watches

 
 By: Marv : February 27th, 2012-14:03
Here with a Rolex Submariner Date And there with an Omega Speedmaster These are real classic Sport Watches....  

Well, not bad, indeed.

 
 By: amanico : February 27th, 2012-14:33

kind of confirms my initial thoughts.

 
 By: grigo : February 27th, 2012-22:50
Man seems to have good taste in watches. Best regards, George

great taste in watches..

 
 By: ocwatching : February 27th, 2012-10:21
them French people... congrats...and nice publicity for JLC...

I notice that during the show and it was a clear mismatch ...

 
 By: nilomis : February 28th, 2012-15:25
By my book, a formal event (tuxedo etc.) requires a social watch. A Reverso, that has roots on the time of the movie should be more appropriate and elegant. But, at that day he got his moment of fame and he could wear anything. About the movie, from the b... 

Mismatch with the event, or matching with his personality?

 
 By: amanico : February 28th, 2012-20:54
I mean, he's young, funny, he's not taking things seriously, he's not conventional, why should he change for an Oscar? Food for thought... Best, Nilo.

Mismatch with the event and the tuxedo ...

 
 By: nilomis : February 29th, 2012-02:40
If he was wearing a pair of jeans, no problem but he was dressed with a full tuxedo. I understand that the Oscar event is "Hollywood chic" (fake chic, of course). Anyway, he is not that young (40, this year - source IMDB) and a Reverso (or something forma... 

The DSA is a strong watch

 
 By: Mr.Gatsby : February 29th, 2012-02:34
A lot of DNA in it. Absolutely love it and when I see pictures of it, I fall back into love all over again!

Dujardin does not require solidarity

 
 By: nilomis : February 29th, 2012-05:57
He is a great actor of a movie that should be praised by all, including the French people. What he needs is to request Vlad's advise about what to wear on his future Oscar. My humble suggestions is for a E 168. Cheers, Nilo

Or its Tribute? ;)

 
 By: amanico : February 29th, 2012-05:59

Yes. He can ship to me and I will ...

 
 By: nilomis : February 29th, 2012-06:40
Take care of it, avoiding any other protocol breach that can embarrass him, and why not to say France on the future. >:X Cheers, Nilo

Well, this is not really France he said during his speech in L.A. ;)

 
 By: amanico : February 29th, 2012-06:42
It starts with a F.... But it is definitely not France. Best, Nicolas
