"I'm not saying I couldn't be in that position under different circumstances. It's just that I've never seen the show. Actually, that's not true. I saw the first five minutes of the first episode when it started auto-playing on Prime a couple weeks ago. Apparently, I'm an algorithmic shoo-in for the Jenny Han coming-of-age drama. Maybe I missed out on three good seasons' worth of entertainment. I'll have to learn to live with that."
"And thanks to some horological investigating by our friends at Esquire Australiaalong with the good people of RedditI now know that Conrad, who I am assured should be the ultimate object of Belly's affections, wears what seems to be a vintage Omega Constellation (nicknamed the "Connie" by fans, and perhaps a wink at his character's name). His choice of timepieceunderstated, slightly delicate, refinedis in direct contrast to his brother, Jeremiah, who wears a chunky steel tool watch."
A viewer has seen only the opening minutes of The Summer I Turned Pretty but notes the finale will decide Belly's romantic outcome. Horological sleuthing on Esquire Australia and Reddit identifies Conrad wearing a vintage Omega Constellation nicknamed the "Connie." The Constellation projects understatement, delicacy, and refinement, contrasting with Jeremiah's chunky steel tool watch, which signals rugged masculinity and popularity. Conrad reads as quiet, mysterious, and brooding while Jeremiah appears obvious and conventional. In 2025, dress watches have become the collectors' favored vibe, with smaller, luxurious timepieces capturing enthusiast interest, though tool watches remain present.
