The American is an upcoming 2010 drama/thriller film starring George Clooney. The movie is directed by Dutch photographer and director Anton Corbijn. The story of the film is an adaptation of the 1990 novel A Very Private Gentleman by Martin Booth.

Clooney is a brand ambassador for Omega, so he wears an Omega watch in the film. In the trailer, an Omega Speedmaster can clearly be spotted. Actress Thekla Reuten, who plays Mathilde, wears a classic Casio ladies watch.
