Highest to Lowest recently premiered with a star-studded cast, all sporting some eye-catching time pieces on the red carpet. The film directed by Spike Lee officially released August 15th, starring the movie icon Denzel Washington, who cheekily stole a watch from A$AP Rocky during an interview.
Guests and stars, like Brent Faiyaz, Dave East, and Ice Spice, attended the New York and Los Angeles premieres. Here are some watches we spotted on these celebrities.
Brent Faiyaz - Audemars Piguet Royal Oak
Brent Faiyaz stepped out on the red carpet wearing an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Tourbillon. This watch is perfect for the R&B star, who famously mentions the luxury swiss watch company in his music. The Royal Oak (ref. 26730BC.GG.1320BC.01)is made of stainless steel and features a blue dial, with a tourbillion at 6 o’clock that sets this watch apart from any other Audemars Piguet. This piece has a market price that ranges starting around $180,000.
Dave East - Patek Philipe Nautilus
American rapper Dave East stepped out on the red carpet wearing a diamond set Patek Nautilus 5711/1A. This Nautilus is entirely encrusted in diamonds from the case to the bracelet, including the dial and baguette hour markers. East mentioned in an interview with GQ that he paid about $100,000 for this Patek.
A$AP Rocky - Audemars Piguet Offshore
In a now viral interview, Denzel Washington jokingly snatches an Audemars Piguet Offshore off of A$AP Rocky’s wrist. This Royal Oak (ref. 15500OR.OO.1220OR.01) is an 18k rose gold beauty with a black dial that makes this watch really stand out. Its rose gold luminous coated hour markers are especially easy for the wearer to read. This Offshore is stunning and has a market value around $90,000.
Slick Rick - Custom Rolex
Slick Rick wore the most unique and eye-catching watch on the red carpet. Anything but subtle, this custom Rolex Day-Date is a piece made by Jacob the Jeweler and looks almost like a dish covered in diamonds on his wrist. This Rolex has an unknown market value, and is a one-of-a-kind piece.
Ice Spice - Audemars Piguet Mini
Ice Spice debuted a new, refined look on the red carpet, wearing an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak “Mini” (ref. 67630BC.GG.1312BC.01-B) in frosted white gold. This tiny piece is only 23mm, but it did not go unnoticed. It features a grey dial in “Petite Tapisserie” pattern. This watch is made entirely of 18k white gold, including the hour markers which have a luminous coating. This tiny piece retails for $38,000 but has a market value around $80,000.
Jordan Moldo - Cartier Tank Solo XL
Producer Jordan Moldo arrived on the red carpet wearing a Cartier Tank Solo XL. This sleek take on a classic model has an extra large dial, featuring a black leather strap and date window. It has a market value around $3,500.
Spike Lee - OMEGA x Swatch
The director, Spike Lee, himself wore a seemingly unassuming watch that actually caused frenzy upon its release. This OMEGA x Swatch Mission On Earth “Lava” was released last year with much hype. This watch retails for just $270, but shows that Lee keeps up with interesting pieces.
Eren Legend - GLD
Professional athlete and model Eren Legend arrived at the red carpet wearing an iced out GLD watch. GLD is a brand especially popular among basketball players, showing that Legend knows his stuff both as an athlete and fashion enthusiast. This GLD 39MM Visionary Fully Iced Watch is hand-set in cubic zirconia and made of stainless steel and yellow gold. This timepiece looks expensive but doesn’t break the bank, retailing for just under $1,000.
Highest to Lowest Showcases a Watch for Everyone
The Highest to Lowest premiere showcased a variety of impressive timepieces, with a wide range of prices and styles. Some stars, like Brent Faiyaz and Dave Easy brought out luxury pieces in the six digits, showing that money can indeed buy taste. We even spotted the most unique custom Rolex on Slick Rick. Spike Lee and Eren Legend, on the other hand, wore more humbly priced timepieces.
With such a star-studded cast of fashion and music icons, this red carpet was indeed the time to show out.
