Stephen Graham, now that he’s one of the biggest stars in the world after a slew of awards wins for the seminal, Adolescence, gets to sit front row alongside his wife, Hannah Walters, at Burberry’s London Fashion Week show to premiere their 2027 Spring Summer collection.
Also there was his Snatch co-star, Jason Statham, leading the two to have a little reunion 26 years after the release of the classic British gangster movie, w.hich also starred Brad Pitt.
The two were scene posing for photos together where Graham showed off the latest addition to his burgeoning watch collection – the Rolex Day-Date.
With a platinum ice blue dial, this is one of the most exclusive Day-Date’s in the range and the colour can only be otherwise found on the Daytona, the Perpetual 1908 and the Land-Dweller.
Though just 40mm, the watch looks larger on Graham’s 5’6″ frame but with a watch this stylish, there’s nothing wrong with letting it take over the wrist. Retailing for £57,400, these can be grabbed for a premium on the secondary market if you don’t want to suffer Rolex’s waiting times.
Graham has stepped up his watch game in a big way recently. The This is England star was previously glued to his trusty Rolex Daytona with a white dial but was previously spotted wearing one of Louis Vuitton’s new Escale pieces and then later a Tambour.
Conversely, watch aficionado Statham could not be seen wearing a timepiece from his extensive collection of vintage Rolex’s, huge Panerai pieces and IWC diver’s watches.
However, his longtime partner, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was holding it down for the family in the jewellery department. The Tiffany & Co. ambassador was wearing earrings and a necklace from the brand. The model and actor wore pieces from their HeadWear range with the necklace white gold and paved with diamonds with the matching earrings.
Elsewhere at the fashion show, Something About Rocks cover star, Jonathan Bailey, brought out his tiny vintage 1970’s Omega dress watch.
Bailey has been an Omega ambassador for a number of years even wearing a special Railmaster for his role in Jurassic World: Rebirth. In the blockbuster, Bailey sports the 38mm Railmaster 60th Anniversary edition, a stainless steel timepiece with a black dial and brown leather strap, designed as a tribute to the original 1957 model and created specifically for the actor to wear in his role as a paleontologist.
In his cover interview with Something About Rocks, Bailey revealed that wearing the watch in the film was a result of a conversation with Omega CEO Raynald Aeschlimann, saying: “I knew I was playing a palaeontologist called Henry Loomis and I knew that he’d probably need an heirloom watch. So I texted Raynald that I’d spied the 1959 Railmaster: he managed to track one down and get one [for me]. I wore that all the way through the film.”
