The landmark fashion event was a veritable garden of wonders for horology lovers
At the peak of Paris Fashion Week, Vogue hosted an extravagant party bringing together fashion, performance art, and sport (The Paris Olympics are right around the corner, after all). Vogue World 2024 invited anyone who’s anyone for a night to remember. While, naturally, we saw plenty of gorgeous fashions, it was the watches that caught our eyes.
Here are the hottest watches at Vogue World 2024
Serena Williams and Her Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Flying Tourbillon Openworked
One of the greatest tennis players of all time, philanthropist and activist Serena Williams is somebody who broke more glass ceilings than one can count. So, it’s only natural that a landmark watchmaker like Audemars Piguet recruited this conqueror of courts as its ambassador. And, during Vogue World 2024, Williams once again pledged her allegiance to the maison when she wore the Piguet Royal Oak Flying Tourbillon Openworked in sand gold while walking the Off-White show.
Bad Bunny and His Cartier Tonneau
The it-boy for the Gen Zs, singer Bad Bunny, raised the roof at Vogue World 2024 with a spectacular performance. The co-chair of the 2024 Met Gala provided a soundtrack to the runway turns of Serena and Venus Williams while looking stunning in a tailored gray number from Pressiat. The artist accompanied his sartorial ensemble with a forever elegant Cartier Tonneau in white gold studded with diamonds.
Simon Porte Jacquemus and His Panthère de Cartier
Your girlfriend’s favorite fashion designer, Simon Porte Jacquemus was among the attendees of Vogue World 2024 in Paris. As someone known for his tasteful, minimalist styling, Jacquemus opted for a simple tee-and-trousers ensemble, which he wore with an elegant Panthère de Cartier in yellow gold.
Casey Cadwallader and His Rolex Datejust 41
If you know anything about Mugler – the legacy haute couture house now headed by architect-turned-fashion designer Casey Cadwallader – you would know that it’s currently on a bit of a silver streak, as seen through its bags, shoes, and jewelry. And, whether with that in mind or not, Cadwallader attended Vogue World 2024 with a classic Rolex Datejust in white gold and stainless steel.
Tamara Kalinic and Her Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Mini Frosted Gold
Influencer Tamara Kalinic is not the one to miss a trend. It seems that the blogger saw the Vogue World 2024 event as the perfect opportunity to wear a newly launched Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Mini in frosted gold.
Carmelo Anthony and His Rolex Day-Date 40
The legend in the world of professional basketball, Carmelo Anthony, made quite a statement at Vogue World 2024 wearing a colorful number from South African knitwear brand Maxhosa. The athlete’s accessory game reached its culmination with a Rolex Day-Date 40 in Everose gold with a stunning olive-green sunburst dial.
Russell Westbrook and His Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding
Point guard for the LA Clippers, Russell Westbrook was another athlete invited to Vogue World 2024. Westbrook’s involvement with the event was not as far-fetched as it might seem, given how he’s also the founder of a streetwear brand Honor The Gift. On this occasion, Westbrook styled his suave sepia-colored corduroy suit with an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding in rose gold with an elegant black dial.
Serge Ibaka and His Rolex Submariner Date
Basketball player Serge Ibaka came to Vogue World 2024 wearing a sleek black coat with exaggerated shoulders, which played well with his black shades and gold accessories, including his Rolex Submariner Date. This watch is equipped with a yellow gold bracelet and lugs as well as a blue sunburst dial and a matching bezel.
Stefon Diggs and His Audemars Piguet Edward Piguet
It’s quite a rarity to see a celebrity wearing an Audemars Piguet watch that’s not a variation of the Royal Oak. Yet, American footballer Stefan Diggs pleasantly surprised us once again with his Edward Piguet watch he wore to Vogue World 2024. This timepiece features a white gold case and a textured dial, which makes it appear both elegant and modern.
Teyana Taylor and Her Santos de Cartier with Aftermarket Diamonds
Actress and singer Teyana Taylor attended the Vogue World 2024 afterparty wearing a whimsical checkered Louis Vuitton number from one of late Virgil Abloh’s collections. Taylor styled her outfit with a Santos de Cartier covered in diamonds – from dial to bracelet.
Justin Jefferson and His Richard Mille RM011 with Aftermarket Diamonds
Wide receiver for Minnesota Vikings, Justin Jefferson, wore a stunning Richard Mille RM011 to Vogue World 2024, which he styled with a denim ensemble. The shimmer of this watch could be seen from miles away since it was – naturally – blinged out for the gods.
Caroline Scheufele and Her Chopard Alpine Eagle
Chopard’s co-president Caroline Scheufele looked radiant at the Vogue World 2024 event in blush pink with a watch to match. Her timepiece of choice was the Alpine Eagle – the brand’s signature sports watch – with a unique pink brass dial and a sunburst motif.
Pharell Williams and His Richard Mille RM UP-01 Ferrari
Shortly after the triumphant Louis Vuitton menswear show, menswear creative director Pharell Williams wore a rare Richard Mille RM UP-01 Ferrari to his spring/summer 2025 show. The unique design of this timepiece echoes Williams’s eclectic vision. The ultra-flat “racing machine for the wrist” features a limited-edition manual winding movement and a case made from Grade 5 titanium designed in a monobloc construction that maximizes its water resistance.
