There are a few scenes in John Wick where you can clearly see that the protagonist is wearing a watch just like any other person normally would. However, upon closer inspection, you’ll notice that during the action scenes, or right after them, the watch has changed position. Instead of wearing it outward, John Wick wears it facing his own body. Some people believe that soldiers wear their watches this way because it allows them to be more discreet and prevents light from reflecting off the glass of the device, which would automatically give away their location.
