Before the Oscars hands out the trophies on March 11, here’s a quick look at the male Oscar nominees and their watches
For a man, the watch he wears makes a powerful statement. It speaks volumes about his style, his personality, and whether he pays attention to the finer details in life.
When he is a major movie star, the watch transcends mere timekeeping to symbolise opulence, sophistication, and a captivating blend of charisma that defines his larger-than-life presence on and off the silver screen.
We've bore witness to this on the red carpet throughout the current awards season, from the Golden Globes to most recently the Baftas. With the Oscars just around the corner, here’s a recap at what these Oscar-nominated actors have worn to the events and their history with luxury watches.
