Meanwhile, since 2017, Jennie has represented Chanel. Jisoo also represents Cartier and Dior. Lastly, Lisa had been bought in by Hedi Slimane as the brand ambassador of Celine.
Your favorite celebrities, more often than not, such as your favorite K-pop idols and Hollywood stars, more often than not, will be spotted with a luxury timepiece on their wrists. Curious about what they're sporting nowadays? Read on!
Rolex Submariner
Rolex Submariner was one of the first diving watches. It is an aspirational piece known for its ease of use, style, and versatility. It remains authentic to its spirit as a true dive watch that can withstand water. Its popularity is unprecedented. It has also become one of the five most emblematic models ever created by the Swiss watch industry - it is a watch that has become far more than a timing device, with a popularity that goes way beyond the small club of watch enthusiasts.
It is also a classically and fairly luxurious sports watch. The Submariner is produced from oystersteel (the internal name of the 904L stainless steel alloy used by the brand), and its case mixes brushed surfaces on its flat areas. Meanwhile, on the sides, the watch has polished accents. The Submariner's crown is called Triplock. Lateral guards protect it.
EXO's Kai was spotted sporting a Rolex Submariner. He joins the gang of celebrities who have been spotted sporting it. These likes include Jack Black and Tom Hardy.
Another suggestion is the Seiko Lukia.
Rolex Cosmograph Daytona
The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona is another sporty watch that is fun on the wrist. It also has a glorious history behind it. Originally launched in 1963 and has a history tied to racing, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona became a chronograph legend quickly. Moreover, the Daytona is slightly smaller than the Submariner in size.
Paul Newman, Adam Levine, Ed Sheeran, and Eric Clapton are known to love the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona.
Rolex Datejust
The Rolex Datejust is not just a style piece for luxury style icons. It is also a piece of watchmaking history. The Rolex Datejust was first produced in 1945. It also was the first self-winding waterproof chronometer wristwatch. It had a window displaying the date at 3 o'clock on the dial.
Lisa of Blackpink heavily favors the Rolex Datejust. She has often been spotted wearing it.
Cartier Tank
Cartier Tank takes its design from World War I tanks and battlefields. Louis Cartier designed it personally. One of the world's most famous and elegant luxury watches for men and women, its gender-neutral-friendly design is one of its main charms.
Blackpink's Jisoo wears the Cartier Tank with a twist: she uses a green alligator strap. The Cartier Tank's rectangular design has long been associated with Cartier since its unveiling in 1917.
Wrapping Up
Luxury watches are some of the most common items that celebrities sport. However, they are not easy to buy and access due to their hefty prices. Once they're on your wrist, though - that's a different story.
