In the Netflix series Squid Game, the 'Front Man' character, played by Lee Byung-hun, in Season 1 wears a Casio A168W-1 watch on his wrist.

The watch gets a very good close-up in Episode 7 of the first season, at around 00:44.

Interestingly enough the watch has the same hours and minutes as the product photo from Casio: 10:58. But the watch is not a prop watch, it does really work, as we can see the seconds change from 14 to 15 in the same shot.

The Casio A168W-1 is one of the classic Casio digital watches and has appeared in several movies, just as the similar A158W.

In the 2008 movie Wanted, James McAvoy also wear the Casio A168W-1 watch.

This A168W-1 model is a tried and true style that always remains in fashion. It has an illuminated screen and a chronometer. You also get a daily alarm, hourly time signal and auto calendar, and all that for less than $20!

Find it on Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk or eBay.

This is the second watch we have spotted on Lee Byung-hun, the first being a TAG Heuer Carrera watch in the movie Red 2.
