Luis Miguel's Watches: The Series (Part 2)
LOFTAfter a first part where we showed you the best watches used by Luis Miguel in the series, this time we focus on what we saw on the wrists of some of the most important supporting characters around Micky .
While the production team must be commended for the excellent choice of some pieces, which masterfully match the personality of each character, it is also true that we found date errors, with watches shown on screen at a time when they had not yet been released.
Anyway, we've had a tremendous amount of fun each week trying to figure out what everyone is using, and here are the fruits of our research.
Rolex Milgauss
This “ugly duckling” of the Rolex sports watch collection is a timepiece that fascinates us, full of unique details that make it very interesting, which have not always been appreciated by the collector community that pays fortunes for its cousins, the Submariner and GMT Master . On the wrist of Hugo , Luismi 's late Manager and mentor, we see the version with a green-tinted sapphire crystal, something that only Rolex has been able to achieve.
The orange details on the dial easily give away the model, and despite the fact that it hadn't yet been launched when Hugo was alive, we're going to overlook the error because we think it's a watch full of personality and character, worthy of a guy as great as Hugo. A watch that can withstand more than 1,000 Gauss , but can't escape the magnetism of the Mexican Sun.
Rolex Submariner
Another Rolex sports watch, but this time in its most decadent and luxurious form. Who else but the great Luisito Rey could have worn this beast of a watch so well? It's our favorite of the entire series.
In the photos, we can clearly see the Oyster bracelet, and it truly fits perfectly with Luismi 's father's style, full of excess and luxury, generally obtained at the expense of his own son. The truth is that the Sub is an integral part of the character's look in his final phase of the story, and reminds us just how incredible a watch as contradictory as this one can be.
A true tool for diving professionals, robust and capable, yet crafted from a precious material like gold, at a frankly exorbitant price. Simply Rolex doing what it does best. We're so jealous of Luisito , as this proves that sometimes the bad guys win!

For several chapters, we see Marcela Basteri , Luismi 's mother, wearing what appears to be a very thin, gold (or golden) quartz watch, very typical of the time. We are unable to clearly distinguish what it is; it could be a Bulova, Omega, Citizen, or even Casio.
In the scene, we see what appears to be a digital display, but upon closer inspection, we see the hands of an analog clock. We ask for your help in solving the mystery of this golden clock. Share your theory and evidence in the comments section of this article or on our social media channels.
We don't yet know if we'll get a third season, but we'll be keeping an eye out for this and other premieres to bring you the most interesting aspects of the horological presence on screen.
See you at The Loft!
