[Celebrity Series] What kind of watches are those celebrities wearing? ~Comedian Edition~

Have you ever wanted to own a watch that a celebrity wears?

If you look closely at their wrists, you will notice that many celebrities wear top-notch luxury watches, with "stylish designs" and "luxurious, eye-catching watches."

I think it's human nature to carefully research the brands of items worn by our favorite entertainers and famous people, and then want to buy the same things.

So this time we will focus on the wrists of popular comedians . What kind of watches do the comedians you often see on TV wear? Please enjoy until the end.

Worn by Lily from Mitorizu

Explorer I
"Ref.114270"

The Rolex Explorer I , Ref. 114270, reigns supreme as the ultimate simple watch, with a streamlined and refined design that has been inherited from the original.

This model has the same case diameter (36mm) and has not undergone any major changes in appearance from the previous model, but the movement has been changed to "Cal.3130" , which has improved maintenance and stability . The luminous material has been changed from tritium to Luminova because it contains radioactive materials, and in 2007 a roulette engraving was added to prevent counterfeiting.

Apparently, during a TV show segment where her partner Moriyama was buying a Panerai, Lily bought this one as a joke while he was wondering whether to buy it. (laughs) Not only is she great at comedy, but her sense for choosing watches is also outstanding! As expected!

The second person we would like to introduce is the straight man of the 2020 M-1 champion "Magical Lovely", Mr. Murakami .

Murakami won the national comedy club championship while attending Hosei University and formed the group Magical Lovely with Noda Crystal. In 2017, he made it to the finals of the M-1 Grand Prix for the first time, and in 2020, he won the championship, becoming an instant hit. The model worn by Murakami, who has gained popularity for his exquisite tsukkomi, is

"Grand Lange 1 Moon Phase"
"Ref.139.032"

The A. Lange & Söhne Grand Lange 1 Moon Phase, Ref. 139.032, reproduces the phases of the moon with the highest level of accuracy.

The main feature of this watch is the golden ratio design with a 41mm diameter 18KPG (pink gold) case, two subdials, an iconic oversized date, moon phase, and power reserve, and it is not only beautiful to look at, but also highly legible, giving the viewer an intelligent impression. The moon phase display is so highly accurate that it only needs to be corrected once every 122.6 years.

Murakami, who is well known as a watch enthusiast, revealed that he bought this watch with the prize money from winning the M-1, and that it was actually a model that he had decided to buy if he became a successful comedian. The coveted "Lange 1" is truly a watch worthy of an M-1 champion!

Worn by King Kong's Yuta Kajiwara

Yacht-Master 42
"Ref.226658"

The Rolex Yacht-Master Ref. 226658 is a model that combines carefully selected materials and perfect design to achieve high performance, and is inspired by its rich heritage and ties to the world of sailing.

This watch has a combination of a black dial, 18KYG (yellow gold) case, Oysterflex and black ceramic bezel, giving it an adult elegance. It is a sports model but exudes a sense of luxury, making it a favorite among many celebrities. The movement has been changed from the conventional "Cal.3135" to "Cal.3235", achieving a long power reserve of 70 hours, which is about double the previous model.

Kajiwara Yuta is also known as a father of five children. He has an Instagram account called "Kajisac & Yomesac," where you can see how close his family is. The photo he posted shows him in his iconic "red jersey," but the Yachtmaster he wears as part of his everyday style is one he got after taking on a new challenge and succeeding. It's really cool!

Finally, we would like to introduce "Peace", a comedy duo who have moved their base of operations to the United States. " Yuji Ayabe "

Yuji Ayabe went to the US in 2017 with the aim of breaking into Hollywood. He recently celebrated the 20th anniversary of the formation of "Peace" and returned to Japan for the first time in six years to hold a talk show with his partner Naoki Matayoshi, "Peace Talk Live - Books and America." This model that Yuji Ayabe wore during his time in Japan was

『Royal Oak』
"Ref.15400ST.OO.1220ST.02"

An iconic contemporary watch model: Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak, Ref. 15400ST.OO.1220ST.02.

This model, released in 2012, has the word "AUTOMATIC" written at the 6 o'clock position on the dial, and has a case diameter of 41mm, which is 2mm larger than the previous model (39mm). From the skeleton back, you can see the Gyromax balance wheel of the in-house developed movement "Cal.3120", which allows for accurate and stable rate adjustment.

During his time in Japan, Yuji Ayabe became a hot topic after posting photos with some impressive members. Among those photos, we discovered this Royal Oak in a shot of him and Nobu from the comedy duo "Chidori." Ayabe's styling is always so stylish that it's hard not to look at it! It really suits him!!

summary

That's all, what do you think?

I think they were all more worthy of being called "watch enthusiasts" than "popular comedians". After all, people who have their own style and enjoy watches look cool no matter what they wear!

Once again, I hope this article will help you choose your favorite one.

see you!
