Ryan Reynolds and Idris Elba prove cool watches don't have to cost the world

 For a quiet summer week, there has been a lot to see on the wrists of celebs, whether it's Ryan Reynolds and Idris Elba getting papped while out in carefully curated too-casual fits or off-duty F1 stars having a good time. And we start with a surprising musical number from everyone's favourite Billions star strumming his guitar…


Who knew Damien Lewis could strum that six-string with such passion? While unveiling his debut solo album at Wilderness festival in the Cotswolds countryside, his wristwear was a studied vintage choice of our dreams. It’s an interesting sign of our times when the only Rolex in this story is a vintage Air-King ref.14000. With its 34mm diameter and timeless cool,replica uhren the understated Rollie matched Lewis’s intimate songs to a tee, and we’re off to pre-order a Spotify download.


Gucci would struggle to find a stronger ambassador than The Idris, and he is rocking the sleek new 38mm 25H watch while cruising through Manhattan to prove the point. Its case is multilayered like his movie roles and marks a scorching hot pink return of Gucci to the watch scene. Suffice to say his fit only underlines the effortless cool of the new Gucci. The flash of pink-coloured crystal juxtaposes his classy G motif sneakers, a summer fresh match to intense blue chinos and a short-sleeved shirt, and proves that you don't have to splash the cash to make a splash in the watch stakes as this 25H is a steal at £1250. 


In Los Cabos, the Wimbledon semi-finalist lost out to Daniil Medvedev on the court in the final, but his wrist game is strong with the off-beat choice of the Rado Captain Cook Ceramic diver’s watch. Matching his personality, the re-interpretation of the classic Rado diver’s watch is a lot tougher than its sleek design insinuates. That said, Medvedev's love affair with Bovet 1922 deserves a mention too. His wristwear of choice to lift the winner's trophy is a quirky and brightly colourful piece of Haute Horlogerie, its yellow sub-dials popping off the dial like the Mexican sun.


Ryan Reynolds has the casual fit look to end all, making us want to get rid of our slim-fit chinos for good. He wears the hell of the shirt du jour from Bode, but it's how he mixes up his look with a Terrazza striped strap for his ubiquitous Apple Watch that we're all for. Appropriately named La Californienne, for £275 it turns his Apple Watch Edition Space Black Titanium Case 45mm into a hot summer watch that costs less than £1000. We do love the pizzazz of haute horlogerie – and so does the Deadpool star – but the effortless cool of Reynolds is infectious. With a stack of dad-vibe bracelets picking up on the sorbet pink, we’ll be damned if he doesn’t make the everyday Apple success look fresh as.


Looking fierce in his all-black training kit, Liverpool's new Uruguayan goal machine makes a case for stealth-tough wristwear from Hublot. The all-black ceramic Big Bang Unico on what's a comfort-famed rubber strap is a large but appealing version of their now classic Big Bang. With a skeletonised dial showing off the intricate architecture within, Nunez’s choice is a learned one. While teammates opt for paparazzi-dazzling precious metal, Nunez lets his skills do the talking while proving that there’s life in the man bun yet.


The winning Love Island hunk Davide Sanclimenti flexes more than his pecs this week, celebrating his win with everyone's fave Ekin-Su in style. Though we’ve seen him pulling a Rolex flex before, this time (Michelangelo’s?) Davide stays true to his Italian roots by sporting the Ascari chronograph from Italian microbrand Filippo Loreti. Eschewing big brand wristwear Davide proves that the Italian brand offers a lot of chunky wrist-glam for the money while flying the Tricolore with pride.


F1's cheekiest young gun is rocking the new Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Music Edition for the summer while celebrating his anniversary with girlfriend Luisinha Oliveira. The DJ-infused R.O. might have had some serious collectors up in arms, but it’s all good. Quite a few brands have a thing or two to learn from the boldness of AP. Taking a leaf out of the playbook of brands like Richard Mille and Hublot, the storied brand knows that resting on laurels is not the way to go, so turn up the volume.For more details, please visit:rolex replica

Baume & Mercier celebrates summer 2025 with five new Riviera models

 Baume & Mercier introduces five new Riviera models that capture the spirit of summer with fresh colours and the collection’s distinctive sport-chic style, expressed through the iconic twelve-sided bezel and a design that adapts effortlessly to every occasion. The first model marks the return of the white dial, previously seen at the relaunch of the collection in 2021. A second model, combines a gold-tone dial with a Baumatic movement. Complementing these are three new women’s references featuring pastel dials. The Riviera 10829 stands out for its radiant white dial, decorated with a wave and mountain motif and framed by a black outer flange. This aesthetic recalls the look of the Riviera Chronograph 10827 presented at Watches & Wonders earlier this year. The faceted rhodium-plated hands, along with the riveted Roman numerals and hour markers, are filled with white Super-LumiNova X1 that glows blue in the dark. A black seconds hand introduces a crisp contrast to the clean d...

Getting To Know Texas-Based Watch Brand Jack Mason

 For a brand that’s been in operation since 2015, how is Jack Mason only now entering into our collective horological consciousness? Jack Mason’s Strat-o-timer GMT — a classically styled GMT featuring Miyota’s new 9075 flyer GMT movement — certainly helped put the brand on the map, but to truly understand story behind the Texas-based brand, we need to dig into the brand’s history and learn just how Jack Mason came to be.
