I think the "accurist" looks like the best bet, although the side button/knob seems to be more toward the middle on the screencap.

| The only problem I have with the accurist is that the sides of the red Crystal do not curve along with the sides of the watch. They are Square instead. The pic from the movie makes it look to me like they curve. |

Funny! I was thinking of re-opening this thread just last week!
Here's an image I recieved from Gary. I'm in the process of trying to get more info from him concerning the four he had made...he say's that three were purchased by a Japanese Fan while the fourth remains in his collection.
I believe this was the concept for their packaging:

Here is what Gary shared with me today:
The Hamilton and the Gillette seemed close as I recall in my research...But I needed a lot of watches so I settled on NOS ( new old stock ) Fossil LED watches... the Hamilton watches are art in themselves...

Yeah...but not unattainable. 
I simply know nothing about manufacturing wrist bands.
Would you buy a couple of good looking Hamiltons and then take them to a watchmaker to have them done up correctly? |

I've emailed two manufacturers of 'retro' LED watches.
I asked one company about custom orders, the other company don't do custom orders but I suggested the idea of the watch to them.
I think it's worth a go - these watches would appeal to lovers of retro and Blade Runner alike... |

I don't found the right one, but lurking here and there, I find this nice double watch. I love it! None to do with Bryan one... Perhaps a Gaff double wrist? Or a more modern and classic look for today?
Brand and so on is clear visible in the watch.

Gulps!!!! $2,000???? Well... I don't like it!
Just found a Microma black & gold (like the Deckard's one) from a vintage collector. He ask me 250 Sterling Pounds... I think the watches must wait ME for a while...
