Jon Hamm's cool, classic watch collection: the Mad Men star wore a Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso and Omega Seamaster on the show, but his personal collection includes Panerai, Rolex
Case in point: his latest hit, the Apple TV+ series Your Friends and Neighbors. Hamm stars as Andrew 'Coop' Cooper, a hedge fund manager who, after losing his job and torpedoing his career, turns to stealing from his wealthy friends and neighbours to keep up his lavish lifestyle. His loot of choice? High-priced, status symbol items – including some seriously coveted watches, like
a Patek Philippe Nautilus with an ice-blue dial, which boasts a resale value of about US$169,000.

Life imitates art, as they say, and Hamm certainly seems to be mimicking Coop's passion for timepieces. Off-screen, Hamm has been spotted wearing a few steal-worthy timepieces of his own at red carpet events and media appearances. Here's a look at some of the best luxury watches Jon Hamm has been known to wear – presumably all acquired the old-fashioned way, with a receipt and/or full consent.

The actor sparked serious buzz among watch lovers earlier this year when he showed up at the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscar Party wearing a yellow-gold Vacheron Constantin 222, which GQ referred to as the 'big, bold bad boy of high-end sports watches'. One of the most sought-after reissues in recent memory, it oozes the vintage charm of the original 222, which was introduced in 1977 to celebrate Vacheron's 222nd anniversary. After it was discontinued in the mid-80s, it became a rare collector's grail.
The modern version, relaunched in 2022 as the Historiques 222, pays faithful tribute to the original, right down to the 37mm case and integrated bracelet – though it now houses a modern in-house movement. With its throwback styling and quietly confident presence, it's no surprise the piece looks right at home on the wrist of the man who played super-slick ad exec Don Draper in Mad Men.

3 of the best song of the summer 2025 candidates after months of ‘meh' music
Sunny, frothy fun. That is what the song of the summer is. Drive around with the stereo blasting that song. Stand face to face with your bestie, belting that bop at the top of your lungs. Make a super-fun TikTok video of that tune. Before the concept of the song of summer became institutionalised as a Billboard chart in 2010 and an MTV Music Video Award in 2014, music lovers just knew which song dominated listening habits in those out-of-school months. However, in 2025, US music lovers seem to be confused about the song of summer. Why? Because it has been a cruel summer: lay-offs, tariffs, price increases, never-ending wars, lawmaker assassinations, AI ickiness, all kinds of cuts in the Big Beautiful Bill. A preponderance of negativity. Music reflects the times. This summer's big hits have been mostly downbeat.
