The Met Gala 2023 took place on Monday 1st May and the star studded event certainly didn’t disappoint. This year’s theme was Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty, which honoured the fashion designer and creative director of Chanel who died in 2019.

Putting all the iconic fashion moments aside, what caught our eye the most were the watches. There were plenty of exciting watches to look at this Met Gala, from the likes of IWC, Hublot, Cartier and many more. From Roger Federer’s Rolex Perpetual 1908 to James McAvoy’s Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Chronograph, here are some of thebest watchesfrom the Met Gala 2023.

Why wear one watch when you can wear two? Olympic freestyle skier Eileen Gu showcased both the IWC Portofino Automatic Day & Night 34 and the IWC Tribute to Pallweber Edition “150 Years” pocket watch on the Met Gala carpet. The IWC Portofino Automatic Day & Night 34 sat on her wrist and featured a diamond bezel, day and night complication and pink strap that matched her dress and gloves.

Last but certainly not least is Ke Huy Quan’s Omega Speedmaster ‘57. One of thebest Omegawatches on the market, the Omega Speedmaster ‘57 makes a statement with its bold dial (Quan looks to be wearing the green version) and co-axial master chronometer chronograph. Dressing almost identical to how Lagerfeld used to dress, most notably the leather fingerless gloves, high collared shirt and fan accessory, Quan looked the part and wore the iconic Omega Speedmaster ‘57 over his sleeve to really show it off.
