    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The titular gold watch is not used for its time stop ability until 49 minutes into the film.
    • Goofs
      When the watch is used to stop time, the effect should be instantaneous from the other characters' perspectives. Whenever the watch is used, the characters are able to look around and speak for several seconds before the watch user reappears, but from the watch user's perspective, everyone and everything is perfectly still for the duration of the time freeze.
    • Crazy credits
      The end credits are shown over an image of the gold watch, open in someone's hand.
    • Connections
      Followed by The Girl, the Gold Watch & Dynamite (1981)

    Er, not quite...
    In the review listed initially on the site, it's said that the first thing Robert Hays does when he uses the watch is to undo the bikini top of a young girl. Actually, this isn't QUITE true: It's his girlfriend, played by Pam Dawber (who has a beautiful southern accent and a racy sense of humor) who does that, and Hays looks a bit (though not too) disapproving.
