The 75th annual Golden Globe Awards saw many stars making a statement with the way they were dressed. Most of those who attended showed up in black, in support of ‘Time’s Up’, the ‘unified call for change from women in entertainment for women everywhere’. It was an impressive and encouraging statement, which was taken forward in many of the presentations and acceptance speeches. Aside from noticing the black outfits, we were also making note of the watches that the actors and actresses wore on the red carpet, and while on stage. Take a look at the watches spotted, as we recommend timepieces for you based on these styles.
Chris Hemsworth For TAG Heuer
The Thor: Ragnarok actor is a brand ambassador for TAG Heuer watches, hence it was no surprise that he chose to wear a TAG Heuer with his black Etro suit. Offering some contrast was his white metal watch, which also complemented the bracelets he wore on his other hand. We’re guessing the TAG he chose to wear was a Carrera chronograph.
The Watch Guide Recommends: The TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 1887: This is a stunning chronograph timepiece, with a sublime, grey dial and black bezel featuring a tachymeter, along with hints of red that add a tremendous amount of character. The generously-sized, 43mm case in steel is sure to be substantial for anyone with wrists like Hemsworth’s. This watch is powered by an automatic movement. Protected by a sapphire crystal glass, this watch is water resistant to 100m.
Laura Dern Chose A Classic Bulgari Serpenti
Laura Dern, Golden Globe winner for her supporting role in the HBO miniseries, Big Little Lies, got it just right by paring her black Armani number with a Bulgari Serpenti Spiga, in rose gold and ceramic with diamonds. It was an apt choice for a night when she won big.
The Watch Guide Recommends: The Bulgari Serpenti Spiga: Since Dern wore such a stunner, we thought you should get the option of having it too. This two-coil Serpenti watch is from one of the earlier editions of the iconic range. The 35mm case in rose gold has rows of diamonds on either side. Waves of diamonds and rose gold can also be seen on the beautiful black ceramic bracelet. The elegant black dial features plain hour indexes, except from the Roman numeral markers at 12 and 6 o’clock. Powered by a quartz movement, this watch is protected by a sapphire crystal glass and is water resistant to 30m.
Timothée Chalamet Picked A Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso
Golden Globe nominee for best actor in a motion picture – drama, Timothée Chalamet, was wearing a Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso timepiece, featuring a small seconds sub-dial. Nominated for his performance in Call Me By Your Name – a moving, coming-of-age story – Chalamet is an up and coming star, who also appears in Lady Bird, the movie that won the Golden Globe for best picture – musical or comedy.
The Watch Guide Recommends: The Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Small Seconds Reverso Night & Day: Similar to the one that Chalamet wore to the Globes, this Reverso watch has a rectangular sub-dial. Set in a steel case, of length 28.3mm, this timepiece runs on an manual-winding mechanical movement, and features a Clous de Paris texture on the rectangular centre of the dial. With Arabic numerals, blued hands, and black markers, this is a fine timepiece that will work perfectly with any black or grey suit.
Omega: Nicole Kidman’s Choice
Brand ambassador for Omega, Nicole Kidman has made waves with her performance in Big Little Lies, having won an Emmy for the role just a few months ago. Kidman wore an Omega to the Golden Globes, and it’s not a watch that is in the brand’s current offering. We’re guessing she’s wearing a vintage piece from Omega’s archives, like she did at the Emmys in September. While getting your hands on a watch like that might be a little difficult, there are other black dress watches from Omega, for women.
The Watch Guide Recommends: The Omega De Ville Ladymatic: Set in a steel steel case of 34mm, this watch also features a black leather strap like the one Kidman wore. The singular lugs with waves, which is the most characteristic visual element the Ladymatic series, give this watch that elegant touch that makes it perfect for a black dress as well as a pantsuit. Powered by an automatic movement, this watch is water resistant to 100m.
