Dear friends of IWS, the Golden Globes are not just an occasion to celebrate the best performances in the world of cinema and television, but also a stage to showcase some of the most refined and luxurious watches. This year, celebrities wore pieces ranging from classic to modern, each with a unique story to tell. Here’s an overview of the watches worn during the event.
Timothée Chalamet and his Cartier Crash
Timothée Chalamet, the star of Dune, chose a watch that reflects his unique personality: the Cartier Crash in white gold. This watch, with its diamond-studded case, is a true symbol of luxury and originality. The asymmetrical and almost surreal shape of the Crash’s case makes it a standout piece, perfect for those who want to stand out.
Bradley Cooper with a Louis Vuitton Tambour
If you’re a fan of the watch world, you’ve certainly seen the beautiful video that Louis Vuitton shot with Bradley Cooper as the protagonist. Therefore, it’s no surprise that the actor opted for the new Louis Vuitton Tambour in steel with a blue dial. The latest arrival at Louis Vuitton is one of those watches that you have to wear and see on the wrist to truly appreciate.
Cilian Murphy and the Omega De Ville Trésor
Cilian Murphy chose the discreet elegance of the Omega De Ville Trésor in Sedna gold with a Bordeaux dial. This watch, with its warm gold color, is an example of refinement and style. The De Ville Trésor is known for its slim and classic design, making it a perfect evening watch, ideal for the elegance that Murphy expresses both in the roles he plays and in his life.
Robert Downey Jr. and his Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso
Robert Downey Jr. wore a Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Chronograph in rose gold with a black dial. This iconic watch, known for its reversible case, was worn on the non-skeletonized side, showing its more classic dial.
Will Ferrell with a Omega Seamaster “007 Edition”
Will Ferrell chose to pay tribute to the legendary James Bond with an Omega Seamaster “007 Edition” in titanium. This watch, with its robust and sporty design, is a modern classic that combines functionality and style. The Seamaster is a watch that evokes adventure and action, perfect for an actor with a lively spirit like Ferrell. By the way, as I write this, we have just arrived in Miami for the Antiques Show, after a grueling 12-hour flight that passed quickly thanks to several of his films!
Ben Affleck and the Louis Moinet Memoris Monopusher Chronograph
Ben Affleck wore the most distinctive piece of this edition of the Golden Globes. The actor from The Accountant (and many others) sported a Louis Moinet Memoris Monopusher Chronograph in white gold. This watch stands out for its innovative design and chronograph complication. It’s a watch that speaks of boldness and innovation, reflecting Affleck’s personality and his taste for the unconventional.
Barry Keoghan and an Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Diamond Set
This is the third Omega we’ve seen in this edition! Barry Keoghan, the Irish actor known for his roles in Dunkirk and The Green Knight, lit up the red carpet with the Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M in Sedna gold, embellished with diamonds and rubies. It’s definitely a watch that captures attention, just like Keoghan’s performances on screen.
Selena Gomez with a Bulgari Serpenti
Selena Gomez, for better or worse, is a 21st-century icon for those like me who grew up watching “Wizards of Waverly Place.” As an icon, she can only wear icons. For the occasion, the actress and singer chose a watch that is also a piece of high jewelry: the Bulgari Serpenti in white gold and diamonds. This watch, with its design that wraps around the wrist like a snake, is a symbol of sensuality and charm.
Colman Domingo and his Omega Constellation
The first time I saw Colman Domingo was in FEAR The Walking Dead, and now he is certainly one of the most active actors in Hollywood. For the Golden Globes, he wore an unusual Omega Constellation in Sedna gold.
Michelle Yeoh and her Richard Mille RM 67-01
Michelle Yeoh chose a masterpiece of engineering and design: the Richard Mille RM 67-01 “Extra Flat” in rose gold and diamonds. This Richard Mille watch is highly appreciated for being one of the most “wearable” watches of the brand along with its close relative, the Richard Mille RM 67-02, thanks to the relatively compact dimensions of its case.
Final thoughts
The watches worn by celebrities at the Golden Globes are not just accessories, but true symbols of style, elegance, and personality. Each watch chosen reflects not only the personal taste of the actor or actress wearing it but also a piece of their story and character. From classic and refined pieces to modern and bold watches, the variety of styles present at the Golden Globes shows that the watch remains a fundamental accessory to complete any red carpet look.
