Actor Michael B. Jordan arrived on the Oscar red carpet wearing a vintage Piaget watch, reference 9297, one of the brand's few rectangular designs. The star skillfully paired it with an officer-style suit jacket and black tuxedo pants, highlighting the accessory. This timepiece reflects Piaget's "shape-in-shape" design philosophy, featuring a diamond-set dial center. The star of *Sinners* previously served as a Piaget brand ambassador, appearing in many of the brand's promotional campaigns.

Earlier in March, Jordan drew attention by wearing another Piaget watch to receive a pre-Oscar Actor Award. This was a women's Limelight Gala "Chessboard" watch from the 2000s, featuring a chessboard-patterned mother-of-pearl dial, a fully diamond-set horizontal oval case, and a black satin strap. This distinctive case shape has been a Piaget signature since 1969.

R&B king Usher also walked the Oscar red carpet with a women's watch from Jaeger-LeCoultre. His Rendez-Vous Night & Day features a unique day-night indicator in the position typically reserved for a moon phase complication.

At Vanity Fair's Oscar after-party, the singer switched to a men's vintage Piaget watch. It featured a cushion-shaped case, a wave-patterned bezel, and a decorative stone dial – three key design codes found on Piaget Andy Warhol watches. Despite its relatively thick gold bezel, Piaget skillfully balanced the overall look with blue hues, reducing any sense of heaviness and preserving the design's sophistication. The two vintage Piaget watches worn by Michael B. Jordan and Usher underscore that vintage watches have been a highlight in recent years.

Actor Chris Evans chose a Chopard L.U.C XPS for both Oscar parties. This Swiss brand's product features a minimalist design and a high-performance movement. His wife, actress Alba Baptista, also wore Chopard jewelry.

Talent manager and television personality Corey Gamble wore a Grandmaster Chime Haute Joaillerie watch from Patek Philippe. This masterpiece is valued at over 152 billion Vietnamese dong, boasting 20 complications, including five chiming mechanisms, and set with over 400 diamonds and blue sapphires.

Actor Robert Pattinson opted for an unannounced Jaeger-LeCoultre watch model. The new design features a sporty aesthetic with an integrated strap, equipped with a perpetual calendar and moon phase. This appearance not only added allure to the red carpet but also indicated that the Oscars are gradually becoming a unique launchpad for new timepieces just before the annual Watches & Wonders exhibition.

Beyond watches, diamond jewelry was also showcased by top global stars. Model Bella Hadid, for instance, made a statement with a bold 20-carat diamond ring.

American music star Olivia Rodrigo chose Chopard diamond earrings and rings, pairing them with a pastel pink bow-tie doll dress.

Singer Tate selected Piaget Treasures jewelry, highlighted by the marquise cut – a diamond cut favored by the brand – combined with a vibrant red, daringly cut evening gown.
