Celebrity watch-spotting hit a high-water mark this year. Want to know what your favorite movie star or musician wore on the red carpet or the street? There's a very good chance some social-media sleuths have already done the hard work for you, deciphering details from even the grainiest of photographs to confirm which exact piece of wrist candy is on display. Throw in the new trick of brands "leaking" upcoming timepieces on A-listers' wrists before they're announced, and you've got a veritable cornucopia of celeb watch moments to choose from this year. We've combed through all of them and picked our top 20, so you can skip the endless scrolling and get right to the good stuff. – Jonathan Evans, style director Plus: |

From Jason Statham's rare Rolex to a parade of It Boys in Cartier, the red carpet has played host to some top timepieces. |
This year has felt like the tipping point for celebrity watch-spotting. Once a niche obsession confined to sub-Reddits and horology forums, working out who's wearing what has become a pop-culture sport powered by Instagram sleuths such as @celebwatchspotter, @superwatchman and @watchballers.ig. Chief inspector is Nick Gould—aka @niccoloy—whose knack for identifying a vintage reference from one blurry Getty image has become IG legend, and who is the reliable source for many a magazine style story (Hi, Nick!). Even hyper-focused feeds such as @whatsdanielwearing, dedicated to Daniel Craig's wardrobe and wristwear, are thriving—not least because the former 007 and Omega ambassador has a habit of "accidentally" leaking new models months before their official release. These "slips of the wrist" are the new marketing playbook. Days before Rolex unveiled its first all-new model in 13 years in March, the Land-Dweller appeared on Roger Federer's wrist, as he sat outside a Swiss restaurant, eating… fondue. Accident? Or proof that, in 2025, one leaked snap gets more coverage than a year of press releases? |

Colored lights are shining. Bells are jingling. Shit's getting merry. And even though the prospect of setting up a tree seems entirely premature—please, just wait until after the turkey is carved for that—the fact of the matter is, it's time to start thinking about how you're going to dress for the slew of celebrations that the seasons brings. You've probably got something on the docket already. Maybe it's a chilled-out gathering with good friends. Maybe it's a full-blown black-tie gala. And very few of us can avoid the reality of the office party, which hopefully includes an open bar and no behavior that might compel HR to get involved after the fact. These affairs all come with a different set of sartorial expectations—and anxieties. If you're already stressing, worry not. We've broken things down into three categories, ranging from the most casual to the most formal, so you can spend less time worrying about how to put yourself together and more time, you know, actually enjoying yourself. Let's get into it. |

Playing Steve comes naturally to Keery, which is certainly helpful when you're asked to come back to Hawkins, Indiana, five times over ten years. But his most recent trip to the Midwest was the last one. For the fifth and final season of Stranger Things, Netflix plans to release the remaining episodes in three parts—on the day before Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Eve. It's arguably the biggest Netflix event in the streamer's history. But outside of a few small roles here and there—including a game developer in the Ryan Reynolds comedy Free Guy (2021) and Deputy Gator Tillman in Fargo season 5 (2024)—Keery spent his late 20s and early 30s going back and forth between playing Steve Harrington and touring as the indie musician Djo. Now that Stranger Things is almost over, one half of that life is ending, at least. Over the course of our time together, I get the sense that he's been itching for that freedom for a long time. "When ten years have gone by and you're going back and you're playing the same character—and only four years have gone by for the character—it can be difficult," he says. "It could feel like someone's trying to pull you back." |
