Val Kilmer might not be the most famous Batman actor, but he was the first Bruce Wayne to wear the luxury Reverso timepiece by Jaeger-LeCoultre. So watch nerds and cinephiles alike were thrilled when this handsome watch made a comeback on Christian Bale's wrist in Batman Begins. Jaeger-LeCoultre also made an appearance in the Dark Knight Rises with its limited edition Grande Reverso Ultra Thin Tribute to 1931.

In Marvel Studios' blockbuster hit The Avengers, Samuel L Jackson's Nick Fury wears a particularly stunning Piaget Polo, which comes housed in a white gold case. The chronograph comes with a flyback function and is secured onto Jackson's wrist using a black alligator strap. This elegant watch is also robust, boasting 50 hours' worth of power reserve, which we are sure comes in handy when Fury's monitoring the whereabouts of his agents.

The adoptive sister of Natasha Romanoff, also known as Black Widow, and a Red Room operative who worked for General Dreykov, Florence Pugh's Yelena Belova kicks some serious... well, you know... in the latest Black Widow film. So it makes sense this plucky teenage spy opts for a more affordable, and still powerful, G-Shock tactical ticker when she's drop kicking her enemies.

For many Batman fans, myself included, Heath Ledger was the greatest Joker. In his penultimate role, Ledger played the supervillain in Christopher Nolan's 2008 DC Comic hit The Dark Knight. The Dark Knight opens with a nail-bitingly tense bank robbery, which is planned and led by the Joker, who checks the time using a Casio CA-53W before he blows his co-conspirators to kingdom come.
