This black wristwatch with leather and Velcro strap was worn by the character Jack Bauer portrayed by Kiefer Sutherland in the iconic television series 24 . The Special Ops watch was made by MTM, a leading manufacturer of tactical timepieces made to GSA approved military standards and used by Special Forces and Navy Seals. This was Bauer’s signature style watch beginning in Season 4 and then worn repeatedly in different episodes throughout the end of the series. The watch is one of a limited number that were all screen used, some of which were damaged or destroyed over the course of filming the extensive action sequences in the series, making this an extremely rare signature collectible from the show. A specific example of the actor wearing this style watch can be seen in Day 5: 7:00am – 8:00am (Season 5, Episode 1) during the scene after Bauer has learned that President Palmer (Dennis Haysbert) has been assassinated and decides to come out of hiding after faking his death at the end of the previous season. Jack then grabs his gun and puts on his trademark watch and a pair of sunglasses, symbolically indicating that he is officially back in action. Apart from numerous other on-screen appearances, this style watch is also featured being worn by the actor in the book 24: Behind The Scenes as well as on the Season 4 DVD box set, and in promotional images for Season 5. The watch is in good screen worn condition and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and a copy of 24:
