John Mayer in Audemars Piguet at the Sphere; Leonardo DiCaprio in Rolex at the U.S. Open; Timothée Chalamet In Cartier on a red carpet-all these are squares on my standard horological Bingo card.What was *not* on there this week? Axl Rose in Patek at the F1 Grand Prix of Hungary.
Axl Rose, the iconic frontman of Guns N’ Roses, has a penchant for bold, statement watches. Think Richard Mille and others. HYT, with its futuristic design and oversized cases, seems like the type of watch that the front man for one of rock n’ roll’s biggest-ever bands would wear. The Royal Oak Offshore or anything Richard Mille, is also very much Rose’s style. That makes the Patek 5271P, with its restrained, classically inspired designs-with the exception of the platinum case and 81 baguette-cut diamonds-is actually more of the black sheep in his collection.
But a love for horology rarely manifests itself with a single-minded collection full of similar-looking watches.Cool watches are simply cool watches, and most of us-rock stars included-have a wide-ranging rotation. Now, to be fair, our collections don’t generally include a Patek Philippe perpetual calendar dripping in diamonds, but, hey-if you got it, flaunt it!

Stacking the Tanks in the manner of the hip and the fashionable, he rocked mini and Large models of the Parisian brand’s famous WWI-era dress watch both in 18K yellow gold and fitted to black leather straps. the only question-beyond whether or not this sartorial masterstroke will penetrate the broader horological zeitgeist-is whether each was set to a separate time zone, and what these were. Cartier watches are especially stackable. before Yang, Timothée Chalamet wore two mini Tanks at once.
