"It's not only that I was inspired by the movie to make a watch... I was planning to make a series of these watches, along the lines of "what would the protagonist where?" I was going to do Gravity next."
I like this idea. Though seems we like the watch more. ha.

If there is someone that will either burn you to the ground or steal your idea is hollywood's film industry. Remove all direct references immediately so search engines can't track them or you might regret it later.
Just imagine what would happen if will.i.am or kanye west saw this.. they will rip you off and your name will never be associated with the product.
The watch looks nice, though, regardless of the inspiration. I think you would have better luck if it had no connection with the movie too.

Thanks omaha.
I know those colors aren't owned by the movie... It was just a recurring visual (muted beige colors with splashes of red/orange). I kept seeing that everywhere, and thought it was interesting. I just loved the aesthetic look of the movie.
I'm unsure how to credit the photo that I used in the mock-up (my first post). I want to use that in my portfolio. I didn't take that photo, so I assume I need to credit someone for it (the studio? the director? I don't know).
Here are just some stills from the movie...

I like that watch a lot and the renderings are good, but the colors aren't owned by the movie.
I'm confused why you need to credit anyone? What is this going to be used for if you're not actually making and selling the watch.

This is a pretty cool site for inspiration.

Take the "her" off and lose that connection altogether. Then pitch the design to someone in that industry. That watch is simply excellent. I would buy the one with the darker band in a heartbeat.

I think they look really cool, but how did you "make" a watch? Is this a mockup or something?

Are these actual watches you are selling or are these renders/concept pieces for a portfolio?

I'm surprised we don't see more of this – items of fashion based up on films. The trousers everyone was wearing in Her were weird!
Anyway, I don't even wear a watch, so this doesn't really interest me.What a great film though. Reminded me a little of the Charlie Brooker Black Mirror episode.

It's not only that I was inspired by the movie to make a watch... I was planning to make a series of these watches, along the lines of "what would the protagonist where?" I was going to do Gravity next.
So I take it I won't be able to use any movie stills even if I give credit?
What about referencing the movie in the project description in my portfolio? I think that should be ok, right?
I'm still undecided about leaving the "HER" labels on the watch, or if that's even legal if I reference the movie in the project description.
