Australia’s own Chris Hemsworth was back in Sydney this week promoting his latest Aussie flick Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, and amongst the expected fanfare of having, arguably, the country’s biggest star on the media trail, he caught our attention for wearing a rather mad Patek Philippe Nautilus…

Under the hood, the Nautilus boasts the Swiss luxury watchmakers’ famed self-winding mechanical movement, the Caliber CH 28-520 C FUS, delivering a respectable 55-hour power reserve – the perfect amount for high-tailing it through Australia’s unforgiving terrain.
But of course, this isn’t cheap – $200,000 AUD to be exact according to The House Glass in Sydney. Judging by some of the crazy rides spotted in George Miller’s next dystopian epic, a price like that could secure a pretty mad chariot fit for surviving the post-apocalyptic landscapes envisioned in the Australian’s upcoming cinematic masterpiece. Something to think about Chris…
