Michael B. Jordan's luxury watch collection, from Rolex and Tiffany & Co. to Richard Mille
Michael B. Jordan, 38, is no stranger to transformation, whether he's bulking up to play a champion boxer in Creed, tapping into his villainous side for Black Panther, or shape-shifting into a blues-loving vampire in this summer's surprise hit, Sinners. It's almost hard to believe that the same actor who played the baby-faced kid-turned-drug-dealer Wallace in HBO's The Wire has become one of Hollywood's most bankable leading men. Actor and director Michael B. Jordan at the Creed III photocall at Le Grand Rex in February 2023, in Paris, France. Advertisement But it's not just his acting that's evolved – his sense of style has, too. Once too broke to even think about luxury watches, Jordan told Robb Report, 'It wasn't really something I had been introduced to … but then over time, the more I had to dress up, it was something that I realised was a vital piece of fashion.' Today, he's a fully-fledged watch guy – 'hooked', as he puts it – on the one accessory he can't live without. Here are a few stand-outs from Michael B. Jordan's luxury watch collection. Piaget Altiplano 40mm Chronograph Actor Michael B. Jordan backstage at the 88th Annual Academy Awards at the Dolby Theatre in February 2016, in Hollywood, California. Jordan has had a long-standing relationship with Piaget, even acting as an ambassador for the Swiss watchmaker for several years. If his red carpet appearances are anything to go by, he seems to have a soft spot for its Altiplano line, a collection known for its ultra-thin face and tailored aesthetic. At the 2016 Oscars, for instance, he wore the newly released Piaget Altiplano Chronograph in white gold, paired with matching white gold cufflinks from the prestigious maison Piaget Polo 7131 Michael B. Jordan speaks on stage during a Creed III event at AMC Madison Yards 8 in October 2022, in Atlanta, Georgia. As a friend of the brand, the actor has also had access to some rare pieces from the Piaget archives, including this vintage Piaget Polo 7131 from 1979. Crafted in 18k yellow gold, this 25mm unisex design was revolutionary for its time, aligning with the era's boundary-pushing shifts in fashion, culture and society. Small and understated but big on style, it was a stylish choice for Jordan to wear during the Creed III press tour back in 2022. Richard Mille RM 72-01 Le Mans Classic

What my first cruise, a solo Mediterranean trip with the Norwegian Cruise Line, was like
I am standing at the top of the Epic Plunge, a four-storey-tall waterslide on the Norwegian Epic cruise ship, filled with anticipation and trepidation. There is no one else up here, so I quickly place my inflatable tube close to the edge of the slide, sit on it, right hand holding onto the right grip, feet facing front, and ready to go. But wait, where is the left grip? As I shift my body to the left, the tube swivels 90 degrees and, just like that, I am speeding down the 200-foot (61-metre) spiralling slide, back to front, before I land in a giant basin, swirl around it a few times and then get sucked into the plughole in the middle. It was the wrong way to do it, but fun no less. The Epic Plunge is a four-storey-tall waterslide on the Norwegian Epic cruise ship. Photo: SCMPost In a way, that same conflicting emotion I had before taking the plunge sums up how I felt before embarking on my first cruise holiday: excitement with a slight sense of dread. What if I get mugged on the way? What if I misplace my passport? What if I get (sea)sick? In the post-pandemic era, cruise issues such as onboard hygiene standards and food safety – or lack thereof – are still very much on every traveller's mind. Then there are the horror stories you hear about holidaying at sea, including those documented in the recently released Trainwreck: Poop Cruise on Netflix – its title leaves very little to the imagination.
