Omegas in Hollywood

In the past week I have seen SMPs on both television and in the movies. Take a look at the shows/movies below and see if you can spot the Seamasters.

Movie: The Edge (Alec Baldwin, Anthony Hopkins)
Hopkins' wife gives Balwin a SMP chronograph with a silver bezel. There's a very clear shot of the watch near the end of the film.

Television: The Young and the Restless
Don't know the character's name, but he's an African-American photographer. Wears the full-size SMP.

Television : CSI (Crime Scene Investigators)
Don't know this character's name either, but he's the only African-American CSI on the team. Wears a full-size SMP too.

Anyone else know of more such product placement (besides Bond films, obviously). Just thought it was interesting that I saw these all within a few days....
