Luxury Watches Spotted at the 2026 Golden Globes

The 83rd annual Golden Globes awards ceremony took place on January 11, 2026, at the Beverly Hilton. Each year, this exciting kickoff to awards season celebrates excellence in film and television. Plus, this year, we saw the first iteration of the excellence in podcasting award, which was given to Amy Poehler and her podcast Good Hang.

Other big winners of the night included Hamnet for best motion picture (drama), Sinners for cinematic and box office achievement, and One Battle After Another for best motion picture (musical or comedy). After five Golden Globes nominations, Timothee Chalamet finally took home a best actor award for his role in Marty Supreme.

In the television section of the presentation, Noah Wyle won for best actor in a television series for his role on popular ER drama The Pitt. The show itself also took home the award in the best television series (drama) category. Other standouts were AppleTV’s Pluribus, The Studio, and the limited series Adolescence.

As with all awards shows, the awards themselves are only one part of the fun. The celebrity styles on the red carpet are just as exciting, if not more so. From Emma Stone’s yellow fringe skirt to Jennifer Lawrence’s sheer floral dress, Golden Globes fashions were stunning from every angle. Of course, clothes are just one portion of the picture. As Manhattan’s premier secondary market watch seller, it should come as no surprise that our Avi & Co. team was scoping out all of the A-list wristwear on the red carpet.

Today, we are giving you an inside look at the hottest timepieces that deserved a Golden Globe in their own right. Mark Ronson’s miniature Audemars Piguet turned heads, and Glen Powell’s yellow gold OMEGA was masculine without being fussy. Which watch are you going to add to your own elite collection this January? Here are our favorites.

If musician and songwriter Mark Ronson is any indication, miniature watches are staying on trend in 2026. He showed off an 18K yellow gold Royal Oak similar to the one shown above. His watch measured just 34 mm in case size, reminding us that good things really do come in small packages. Miniature watches for men have been dominating modern styles over the past few years, emphasizing the finesse and elegance that we have come to expect in contemporary menswear. Celebrities like Sebastian Stan, A$AP Rocky, Timothee Chalamet, and Bowen Yang have all embraced the miniature watch trend. Now that Ronson has hopped on the bandwagon as well, we cannot wait to see who else embodies timeless taste and class in 2026.

Nominated for his role in Apple TV’s popular drama Severance, Tramell Tillman is known for his exquisite red carpet styles and risk-taking looks. He often shows off vintage-inspired ‘70s styles, but at the 2026 Golden Globes, he mixed things up with a shawl collar dinner jacket and a stunning feather-shaped brooch. His openworked Audemars Piguet watch completed the look, displaying some of the finest Swiss horological artistry around. Tillman’s watch was not dissimilar from the one shown above, which exhibits a titanium case and a skeletonized dial, giving the wearer an inside look at the powerful machinery driving this piece’s function. The captivating tourbillon and chronograph functionality create the perfect marriage of technological sophistication and aesthetic intrigue. This is clearly a watch meant to be seen, and it is without a doubt among the top timepieces from the 2026 Golden Globes.

The Rolex Daytona “Le Mans” edition is the brand’s watch celebrating the centennial of the iconic 24 Hours of Le Mans race. The Daytona collection in general has strong connections to motorsports, and this timepiece is no exception. The tachymeter bezel has a red 100 to commemorate this important anniversary, and the black dial is perfectly offset by white chronograph subdials and a shimmering rose gold bracelet. Leonardo DiCaprio wore the white gold version of this watch to the 2026 Golden Globes, as reported by Esquire. His masculine style and traditional tuxedo were an ideal pairing with this substantial watch, which shows off a 40 mm silhouette and a hefty bracelet. DiCaprio is a known Rolex fan, and he has also been seen wearing these prestigious timepieces to events like the US Open and Knicks games.

The Canadian filmmaker, director, and content creator never fails to stun on a red carpet, and the 2026 Golden Globes were no exception. He turned heads in a light turquoise suit with a floral button-down underneath, offering up an important reminder for all the men out there that tuxedos do not have to be boring! Of course, his watch added to the overall effect. Cole Walliser chose the white ceramic Audemars Piguet Royal Oak perpetual calendar, one of Audemars Piguet’s most complex (and most desirable) modern timepieces. This reference is much-loved by A-listers in all three of its color variations: the watch has been produced in royal blue, black, and white. Other prominent owners include Kevin Hart, DJ Khaled, John Mayer, Ed Sheeran, LeBron James, Tom Brady, and more.

You might know Canadian-American actor Will Arnett best from his role in Arrested Development, but his Golden Globes nomination came in the form of best podcast, for his project SmartLess alongside Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes. Although Arnett did not win the award (ex-wife Amy Poehler took it home instead), Arnett still celebrated in style with a sophisticated Rolex Deepsea on his wrist. This 44 mm watch presents a memorable 44 mm silhouette and a chic combination of warm 18K yellow gold with a stunning royal blue dial. The Deepsea is without a doubt a rugged and masculine watch, and it complemented Arnett’s traditional tuxedo styling, cementing him as one of Hollywood’s old guard.

Photographed alongside Arnett, SmartLess podcast host and renowned actor Jason Bateman made a complementary watch choice: another Rolex, this time the popular “Panda” dial Daytona. This black-and-white timepiece is endlessly sophisticated, and it has proven to be one of the most consistently valuable Rolex watches on the secondary market. Clearly, Bateman has good taste. The Panda dial Daytona measures 40 mm in diameter, pairing stainless steel construction with a black tachymeter bezel and a white dial. Above the bottom chronograph subdial, you will see the word “Daytona” stamped in bright red. This popular timepiece is one for the ages, and it is sure to be an everyday favorite if you add it to your collection. Dress it up, a la Jason Bateman, or pair it with relaxed street style. You cannot go wrong with this Daytona.

Emmy award-winning actor Matthew Rhys hails from Wales, but he has quickly become a household name in America after his stellar performance alongside Claire Danes in Netflix’s The Beast In Me. In this limited edition series, Rhys stars as a mysterious billionaire accused (but never found guilty) of the murder of his missing wife. The moody Hublot Classic Fusion, which pairs a black leather strap and black index dial with warm brushed rose gold, is the perfect choice for this cool and carefree actor. While Hublot’s Big Bang collection often gets more celebrity attention, we love the Classic Fusion as an unexpected and memorable choice for someone with A-plus style. Though Rhys did not win a Golden Globe for The Beast In Me, his watch was definitely a standout on the red carpet.
