The Best Watches at Wimbledon 2026, Including Gareth Bale’s Rolex

New watches? Sure, impressive. Unreleased watches? Now, that’s how you cause a conversation. Over the weekend, Andrew Garfield sported an IWC Ingenieur Automatic model with a blue dial that watch spotters noticed was one that’s supposedly set to be announced this week. Garfield is a man of mystery, and this proves it.

Football legends often know their watches, and Gareth Bale is no exception. His Rolex GMT-Master II watch, with a colorway that has been affectionately titled the ‘Batman’ watch due to its blue-black split. It’s also a favorite among modern watch collectors, and for good reason.

We love the bigger, bulkier watches, but sometimes something smaller can look even more dressy. Ncuti Gatwa’s tiny TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional Solargraph 100 may be big in its name, but in a 28mm case, it’s perfect proof that a watch doesn’t need to be imposingly large to make a statement.

He’s appeared twice at Wimbledon this year: once with a beautiful Patek Philippe Nautilus, and another time in one of his other go-to luxury timepieces. The second time around, Romeo Beckham sported his turquoise-dial Rolex Daytona – a grail watch for anyone obsessed with the brand.
