“Excuse me celebrity, do you know what time it is?” Famous people and their wrist favorite wrist watch – from Charlie’s Angels to President Obama

We all have our favorite timepieces. Some of us got their first watch at thirteen and still carry them until this very day. Others got theirs from husbands or wives, for special anniversaries. Some watches pass in families from generations to generations. But one thing is sure – a good watch is more than just a piece of jewelry. Everyone has his own preferences when it comes to a watch. Some look for delicate design, others look for sturdiness, boldness or functionality. You can really tell a person by his watch. It is a purchase that takes time and thought, it is an important investment for many people, and most of us look for a perfect watch to match our personality.

Golden Watch for a Golden Lady – America said goodbye to the beautiful icon Farah Fawcett of Charlie’s Angels who passed away after a long fight with cancer. As an international symbol and glamorous star, Fawcett went with an international symbol of distinction. Her yellow gold Bvlgari Tobogas watch matched her golden appearance with each and every second that has passed. The Bvlgari is made of 18 K gold, with brass gold hands, diamond indexes, state-of-the-art design and pure star quality.

“Indy! What’s today’s date?” Indiana Jones needs a sturdy watch and that’s the reason why Harrison Ford chose the Breitling Aerospace as his friend.

“I’ll be back! In one hour or so…” The Governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger has a soft spot for Audemars Pigeut. Why wouldn’t he? Schwarzenegger wore The Royal Oak Offshore chronograph in The Terminator 3 and now there is a special line of watches – exact replica of the one from the movie – and it is called the Offshore T3. You might imagine that the Governor has a pretty large arm, hence it is a pretty large watch.

“Time = MC²” Albert Einstein was a smart man and his Longines watch was probably a smart choice. His watch was made up to auction last year and broke a record price of 596,000 dollars. The buyer probably thought he’d be smarter, wearing Longines that’s engraved “Prof. Albert Einstein, Los Angels, Feb. 16.1931” Longins are in the Swiss watch business since 1832. Einstein’s watch is still ticking, just like the spirit of this great genius.
