5 luxury secret watches celebrities love to wear on the red carpet

Dripping in jewels and created with the highest luxury in mind, these secret watches are not just elegant timepieces, they are collector’s items for high fashion lovers
The secret watch – a hidden gem that blurs the line between jewellery and timepiece – has emerged as a prominent staple for red carpet attendees. We saw examples such as Bulgari’s iconic Serpenti high-jewellery timepiece loved by A-listers and the elegant Jaeger-LeCoultre piece worn by Amanda Seyfried at this year’s Venice International Film Festival. Shrewdly concealed and extravagantly decorated, secret watches are true pieces of art worth collecting.
We hand-picked five stunners red carpet veterans would approve of – just in time for the holiday season.
Chanel

The Calligraphie Florale montre’s dial is surrounded by a gem garden comprising white gold, platinum, rubies, emeralds, orange sapphires, black spinels and diamonds. It is inspired by the patterns inside Gabrielle Chanel’s Paris flat. Price available upon request.
Jaeger-LeCoultre

The tennis bracelet-style watch, embellished with two rows of brilliant-cut diamonds, is a truly elegant wonder. The dial is hidden underneath a leaf-shaped design. Price available upon request.
