From Rolex to Cartier: Tom Cruise's luxury watch collection includes a meteorite dial Day-Date 40 for the Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning press tour, Daytonas and a classic Santos de Cartier
Tom Cruise sprint across rooftops, cling to an aircraft as it takes off or free fall from the stratosphere knows one thing for sure: the man never misses a beat. And
when it comes to style , that precision holds true – especially on his wrist. Say what you will about the Hollywood action titan's idiosyncrasies, but Cruise's taste in timepieces cannot be denied.

From crème de la crème Cartiers to just-released Rolexes – including at least two that are quite literally from out of this world – here's a closer look at some of the most
lust-worthy, collector-coveted watches in Tom Cruise's line-up.

The Rolex Daytona is already considered
holy grail tier in the watch world – but trust Cruise to take it a step further. One of his latest additions appears to be the ultra-covetable Rolex Daytona Platinum. It's essentially the Daytona turned up to 11: made from ultra-luxurious platinum, finished with an icy blue dial, and topped off with a chestnut brown Cerachrom bezel.
Cruise already owned a few coveted Daytonas – including the classic 'Panda' and a rare meteorite-dial version – but this platinum model puts him ahead of the curve, especially as the appetite for platinum wrist candy continues to grow. Good luck spotting this on anyone else's wrist.

Also in his collection is a heaven-sent white gold
Cosmograph Daytona featuring a meteorite dial, crafted from an actual meteor that crash-landed in Namibia during prehistoric times. The material is sliced thin, then polished and chemically treated to reveal its natural crystalline pattern, meaning no two dials are ever alike.

It seems Cruise has a thing for cosmic timepieces – he was also spotted wearing his
(inter)stellar meteorite-dial Rolex Day-Date 40 during the press tour for the latest Mission: Impossible movie, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning. Crafted from 18k white gold, it features the same sort of one-of-a-kind dial with naturally occurring Widmanstätten patterns, this time paired with a commanding President bracelet, fluted bezel and 10 baguette-cut diamond hour markers. It's rare, it's expensive, and it's exactly the kind of high-impact statement piece you'd expect from Cruise.

Blue watches are back – in fresh shades, materials and textures: here's our rundown of the models that matter most from Rolex, Chanel, Vacheron Constantin, Parmigiani Fleurier, Hermès and Dior
If one thing stood out at Watches and Wonders 2025 , it was the return of blue. While the colour has long been a favourite in horology, this year's releases showed how brands are pushing the palette further, delivering unexpected textures, materials and finishes – from icy platinum to matte ceramic and pearly lacquer. Rolex's most talked-about launch, the new Land-Dweller, may have made headlines for its technical leap – the brand-new calibre 7135 and patented Dynapulse escapement – but aesthetically, all eyes were on the ice blue dial of ref. 127336. Reserved for platinum models, this signature hue now appears with a honeycomb pattern and satin finish, giving the brand's first all-new line since the Sky-Dweller in 2012 a dressier edge. The watchmaker also unveiled a blue-dial version of the Oyster Perpetual, available in case sizes ranging from 28mm to 41mm.

Released to celebrate the brand's 160th anniversary and to honour founder Georges Favre-Jacot, the 39mm limited edition features a lapis lazuli dial with a mother-of-pearl centre seconds sub-dial and a platinum case with a bracelet engraved in a brick motif. Its movement, the calibre 135, dominated observatory accuracy competitions in the 1950s and now returns with modern upgrades, including a 72-hour power reserve. 'Blue has always been a defining element of Zenith's identity, symbolising our connection to the sky and the pioneering spirit that has driven us for 160 years,' says CEO Benoit de Clerck. To celebrate that legacy, the brand also launched a trio of bright blue ceramic chronographs: the Chronomaster Sport, Defy Skyline Chronograph and Pilot Big Date Flyback. 'More than a tribute to our heritage, these timepieces embody the spirit of innovation and craftsmanship that continue to shape the future of our maison. We are proud to celebrate this anniversary with such a bold and meaningful creation,' he adds. Parmigiani Fleurier Toric Quantième Perpétuel in platinum. Photo: Handout From deep blue lapis to sky tones, Parmigiani Fleurier's latest release explored the palette's softer side. The Toric Quantième Perpétuel in Morning Blue leans into understatement with a beautifully hand-grained dial in a pale, powdery blue. The 40.6mm case is framed by the Toric's signature knurled bezel, sculpted in platinum, with a clean coaxial calendar layout. Chopard Alpine Eagle 41 XP CS in platinum. Photo: Handout Chopard also refined its approach to blue. The new Alpine Eagle 41 XP CS, housed in platinum with an ultra-slim 8mm profile, features what the brand calls its Shades of Ice dial – a textured radial pattern inspired by an eagle's iris, rendered in glacial blue. The CS (Central Seconds) model features a bold arrow-tipped central seconds hand and baton indices. The movement – a COSC-certified, Poinçon de Genève-stamped calibre 96.42-L – is powered by a platinum micro-rotor and is visible through the sapphire caseback. Chanel J12 Bleu X-Ray. Photo: Handout

What the Coldplay ‘kiss cam' scandal says about privacy for us all today
When the 'kiss cam' at a Coldplay concert on July 16 landed on a couple who tried – but failed – to duck out of the spotlight, the internet immediately got to work. In hours, the clip was just about everywhere. Endless memes, parody videos and photos of the pair's shocked faces filled social media feeds. Online sleuths rushed to identify who was on camera. US tech company Astronomer eventually confirmed that its CEO and chief people officer were in fact the couple in the video – and announced the CEO's resignation that weekend. The incident's fallout has generated conversations about business ethics, corporate accountability and the repercussions that conflicts of interest among leadership can cause. But there are also broader implications at play in our increasingly online world: about the state of potentially being visible everywhere you go, or tracked through 'social media surveillance'. From doorbells to smartphones, cameras now film much of our lives. Photo: Shutterstock Experts say it is increasingly common for moments that may have been intended to be private, or at least reserved to a single physical venue, to make their way online and even go global today.
