Sacha Baron Cohen won “Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy” for his Borat Subsequent Moviefilm. The actor and his films might be controversial, but his watch choice is safe, down-to-earth and conventional. The particular model he wore (on his right hand) is the latest Moonwatch upgrade with the excellent 3861 movement and other enthusiast-oriented details.

Lee Isaac Chung wrote and directed the film Minari, which won “Best Motion Picture — Foreign Language.” Holding his daughter while accepting the award via Zoom, a Rolex Datejust was clearly visible on his wrist. An iconic watch in any form, Chung’s DJ featured a two-tone case with a gold dial and smooth bezel — rather than the familiar fluted option.

And the winner for best watch choice for the 78th Golden Globe Awards is:

Eugene Levy: Omega Speedmaster Grey Side of the Moon “Meteorite”

NBC

Omega

Eugene Levy was nominated for “Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series — Musical or Comedy” for the TV comedy Schitt’s Creek. Part of a series of interpretations of the classic Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch, the Grey Side of the Moon is produced in grey ceramic with gold highlights and a meteorite dial. This is definitely the kind of watch choice he didn’t simply phone in, and it reflects a relatively eccentric but mature taste.

Price: $15,600
