The Exact Luxury Watches Spotted on Gen Z Celebrities

Luxury watches have long signified taste and status, but among Gen Z, they also reflect individuality.

Today’s young celebrities gravitate toward pieces that align with their personal style—whether that leans minimalist, statement-driven, or somewhere in between. From enduring Swiss icons to fashion house signatures, their selections reveal a new generation's discerning eye for investment pieces.

Among his repertoire of Rolex timepieces, the Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona in 18 ct white gold is a fixture in many of Andres’ outfits. Defined by its bright black and steel dial, the piece is subtle yet polished—well-suited to his relaxed and composed sense of style.

For a casual look, Donny Pangilinan consistently reaches for his Patek Philippe Aquanaut.

Released in 1997, the Aquanaut is one of the maison’s most recognizable designs. Conceived as a sportier, more accessible counterpart to the Nautilus, it is distinguished by its rounded octagonal dial and sport-luxe look.

Minimal and refined, Belle Mariano favors the Baignoire from Cartier, particularly the iteration with a black leather strap and 18K yellow gold case.

Its name—derived from the French word for “bathtub”—references the watch’s softly curved silhouette. Over time, the design has earned a following among collectors and public figures alike, appreciated for its distinct yet understated profile.

For AZ Martinez, her go-to will always be the crowd-favorite Cartier Panthère.

Introduced in the 1980s, the design is defined by its supple brick-link bracelet and square case with softened edges. Its enduring appeal is evident in its long list of admirers, including Princess Diana, Taylor Swift, and Rihanna.

Sofia Andres' timepiece of choice is rather playful and bright, often wearing a Rolex Oyster Perpetual with the sought-after “Tiffany” turquoise blue dial. Vibrant yet versatile, the lacquered surface shifts in tone depending on the light, moving between soft sky blue and vivid turquoise.

When it comes to her personal style, Bianca De Vera is all about classic and feminine pieces. It’s no surprise then that her choice of timepiece is the Tank Française from Cartier.

Launched in 1996, the model was envisioned as a more relaxed, adaptable interpretation of the original Tank. Its integrated bracelet and streamlined profile is versatile enough to wear from day to night, aligning seamlessly with Bianca's polished aesthetic.
