"Actor's Watch" focuses on the watches worn by actors active in movies, television, etc.
In this 165th installment, we would like to take a look at Timothée Chalamet 's favorite watch .
Timothée Chalamet, who played the mysterious chocolate shop owner Willy Wonka in " Wonka and the Chocolate Factory " (2023), which was released at the end of last year, has become familiar to Japanese movie fans. His sweet face, also known as the " Prince of Hollywood ," has captivated female fans all over the world.
Timothée Chalamet has a French father and an American mother, and holds dual American and French citizenship, and is often seen wearing Cartier watches, befitting his origins.
So let's get started by introducing the Cartier watch that he loves to wear.

Timothée Chalamet was nominated for the 2024 Golden Globe Award for Best Actor for his role in "Wonka and the Chocolate Factory ." Unfortunately, he missed out on the award, but the watch he wore at the event was the Cartier Crash [Ref. WL420051] .
The Crash, which was born at Cartier's London boutique in 1967, is one of Cartier's most shocking works, said to have been inspired by a watch deformed in a car accident or to have been designed under the influence of Salvador Dali's painting "The Persistence of Time," which depicts a "melted watch." At an auction in 2022, the first Crash made in 1967 was sold for a high bid of approximately 200 million yen, which became big news.
The glittering look, with a black sequined jacket, Cartier necklace and "Crash" adding a touch of glamour, is truly worthy of a star known as "Prince."

Next up is Timothée Chalamet, who was photographed casually visiting a pizza restaurant in New York. He is wearing a Yankees baseball shirt with a refreshing traditional pinstripes, and the watch he is wearing appears to be a Cartier Panthere SM (Ref. WSPN0006) .
As you can see at a glance, instead of the men's " LM " size, she has chosen the smaller " SM " size, which shows the gender-neutral styling of Gen Z, which is typical of a young star. We live in a world where we can check the exact time on our smartphones, which we always carry with us. We may be entering an era where it is acceptable to choose a delicate ladies' watch as a bracelet, rather than as a wristwatch .

The romantic horror film " Bones and All " won the Best Director Award at the 2022 Venice Film Festival. Timothée Chalamet, who was attending the festival as the lead actor of the film, was wearing a Cartier Tank Abyss 2 Time Zone (Ref. W1534351 ) watch, which he paired with a casual style of T-shirt, knitted cardigan, and military cargo pants.
This is a piece from the collection called " CPCP (Collection Privée Cartier Paris), " which was developed as Cartier's highest-end line from around 1998 to around 2008. Due to its luxurious construction and rarity, the market price of "CPCP" has been steadily increasing in recent years. Matching it with rough styling to create an item with a luxury street feel is a playful way of using accessories that is typical of Gen Z.
