This is Watch Your Style.
Today's collection that I'm gonna be judging, I mean reviewing, is Robert Downey Jr.
[opening music]
So Robert Downey Junior has made it big in Hollywood as we can all see.
As far as his collection goes, I think it needs some work, but nevertheless, he is a
bonafide watch enthusiast.
And I wanna say that there's different types of guys in this game.
You got the hardcore collectors and just the guys that like watches, that maybe are not
so heavy deep into the game.
The first watch that I've seen in his collection and remember guys, this is composed of just
pictures that I've seen on the Internet.
I have not sat down with Mr. Robert Downey and seen exactly his collection in his safe.
But the first one that caught my attention is he has a Baume & Mercier.
Very simple watch.
Not much value there, but it seems to be more of a sentimental piece and I think anybody
that has any sort of watch collection, whether it's high-end or low-end, has that one watch
that has a sentimental value.
So it's kind of how you get the ball rolling.
Maybe it's something you got as a gift a long time ago or it's just, like I said, something
that's just special to you.
Another watch he has is the Breitling Pathfinder.
This again is a watch that's kind of like a beginner watch.
There are some hardcore Breitling fans and they would probably go more for the vintage.
But that's just going more on the lower end of his collection would be the the Breitling
Pathfinder.
From there, he follows up with a Bell & Ross titanium orange.
Now, Bell & Ross is a very specific watch for me.
I feel like they had a bit of a time there where they were in fashion with their whole
avionics instrumentation look.
It's a cool looking watch, just not sure if he probably wears it that much anymore either.
But I guess that's part of having some watches.
Everybody's got some watches you don't wear anymore, but you just have them for some reasons
just sitting there, perhaps maybe later on you'll start wearing them again.
Now another watch that he has, which to me is when he starts getting more into the collectibles
in the more of the actual Watch Game collectible, would be his Omega Speedmaster.
You know, it's an iconic watch.
I have a Broad Arrow myself put away that I've never worn, but it's just a good watch
to have.
I mean, Omeaga is a reputable brand.
It has a lot history and the Speedmaster is an important watch.
So that's kind of where he starts getting into the more desirable models.
Now, when it comes to Rolex, I feel like everybody has to have according and depending what they
want, ends up having a Rolex of some sort.
He has actually a Submariner Hulk.
I'm sure he uses that often and it's always a good choice have a good stainless steel
Sub.
Another watch that he has is a Rolex GMT Bamford PVD.
Now when it comes to the black watches in the whole PVD craze, Bamford is the premiere
guys for this type of customization.
If you wanna bespoke Rolex with some type of attitude or customization, Bamford is the
one to go to.
Beware of the prices.
They'll take a $7,000 Sub into the $20,000 range.
But as you can see his collection kind of starts getting a little bit more serious.
That's a bit more of a commitment piece there.
That's not just a pick-up-and-go piece at your local AD, so good for him.
I feel like it's something that kind of took it to the next level.
And then finally he has this JLC Amvox 3 Tourbillon GMT.
I have no idea how he ended up with that watch, but I feel like it was kind of like a jump.
I mean man, the guy bought a tourbillon.
That's already when you start getting into more serious brands.
JLC is a brand that I love.
I haven't had the time to do many reviews on that brand, but there are definitely a
serious watch brand.
JLC has a lot of attention to detail and they have very unique pieces and it's that watch
that for me kind of started to put this collection into like, OK he's got some more serious watches
here.
It's a bit more than just a couple of gift and random watches he's had from perhaps maybe
his childhood.
I don't know.
And the last but least he's got the Patek 5712.
Now, God bless Patek, you know?
At this point I think if you get to the point that you have a Patek in your collection,
I think you're obviously really into watches whether if you're all the way or lightly,
but he definitely likes watches.
And I'm sure that's probably the one that he uses most.
So as far as the Watch Game goes, Mr. Downey Jr. in my opinion scores a 5.5.
He obviously likes watches, but he's not that that serious into them and I think that extra
half point I'm gonna award it just because he won me over on his watch collection video.
At the end of the day, you don't have to have such fancy stories or such interesting tales
of how you acquired a watch when maybe they were just a gift or maybe you just randomly
bought it.
But I think that a five and a half is an honest score in the Watch Game.
I think a couple of watches that I think that he might possibly need or want, maybe perhaps
a gold piece in there.
It doesn't have to be rose or yellow, but maybe a white gold piece.
I mean I think that every man if he doesn't have already at one point or another, should
have a gold watch in their collection.
So feel free to comment below on how you feel about Robert Downey Junior's watch collection.
