NAMED ONE OF WATCHPRO MAGAZINE’S “HOT 100” - THE TOP 100 INFLUENCERS OF THE U.S. WATCH INDUSTRY. HOW CAN WE SERVE YOU? OWNED & LOVED BY MARTIN SHEEN - Gevril Avenue of Americas Massive Mens Steel Annual Calendar Moonphase Watch Today's offering showcases this Gevril Avenue of America's massive mens stainless steel watch owned and well-loved by actor Martin Sheen. He also owned an 18K rose gold version of this watch, which he wore on the cover of WatchTime magazine and which we also own. Sheen is an Emmy, Golden Globe, and SAG award-winning actor best known for his leading role as Captain Benjamin Willard in Apocalypse Now, as U.S. President Josiah Bartlet in the television series The West Wing, and as Robert Hanson in the Netflix television series Grace and Frankie. Mr. Sheen's Avenue of the America's watch features a massive stainless steel automatic movement with annual calendar and moonphase complications. Made in a limited numbered edition of only 500 pieces in steel this watch is a rarity and is number 104 in the series. Like New York City, the Gevril Avenue of Americas Moon Phase Annual Calendar 5030 has plenty of international flair, steeped equally in artistic tradition and modern refinements. Inspired by the Art Deco period, it captures the period's essence with its architecturally inspired motifs and bold, precise shape. With an updated modern feel that blends a sense of history with current style, the watch offers a number of small artistic flourishes including a unique patterned guilloche dial with a highly stylized bold, scripted numerals display. Our photos had a hard time picking up the texturing on the dial. The cathedral-style hands further the watch’s appeal. The prominent, geometric case ensures both wrist presence and a tailored look. For further comfort, the massive rectangular case, which makes quite a statement and can't be missed on the wrist, is slightly curved so that it wraps nicely around the wrist.
