In the epic Michael Mann film Collateral (2004), Tom Cruise's Vincent says to Jamie Foxx, Max, "Now we have to make the most of it, improvise and adapt to the surroundings, Darwin, crap happens, I Ching. Whatever man, we've got to roll with it." This line embodies the Darwinian idea that the species that adapts the best to change is the one that will survive. The wristwatch we know today was created under this auspices.
