Story summary

In September 2025, Giulia (the muse of legendary director Federico Fellini) passed away nine months before Christie’s auctioned off her beloved 18-karat yellow gold Bulgari Serpenti watch in October 2026. Crafted with enamel scales and pear-shaped sapphire eyes, the watch had been a constant companion to Giulia since at least 1974. Iconic figures like Faye Dunaway, Marlon Brando, and Catherine Deneuve also became synonymous with prestigious watch brands such as Rolex, Omega, and Cartier respectively, making these accessories emblematic of their timeless style on screen.

Why this leaning score

This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.

When the two combine? asserted

two → combine → ?

Here, five larger-than-life stars who’ve somehow made these prestige brands even more glamorous. asserted

Rolex Screen legend Faye Dunaway was so enamored with her two-tone Lady-Datejust Rolex that she incorporated the watch into her wardrobe, pictured here, for her Oscar-winning role as a successful TV exec in the 1976 movie “Network.” asserted

she → incorporate → movie

Though the Oscar-winning actor was known more as a Rolex man off-screen, during a break in filming the 1964 comedy “Bedtime Story” in Malibu, Marlon Brando proudly showed off an OMEGA Seamaster 300 timepiece from his personal collection. asserted

Brando → win → collection

In the 1960s, très chic femme fatale Catherine Deneuve often showed off her Cartier Baignoire timepiece, a gift from her husband, fashion photographer David Bailey. asserted

Pictured wearing it here, at a 1965 screening of “The Umbrellas of Cherbourg,” the star also wore it in Roman Polanski’s 1965 film “Repulsion” and the famed 1967 drama “Belle de Jour.” asserted

star → picture → film

As befits the “King of Cool,” Steve McQueen’s red, white and blue TAG Heuer Monaco wristwatch was a perfect match for the stoic race-car driver he portrayed in 1971’s “Le Mans,” in which the actor did all of his own stunts. asserted

actor → befit → stunts

Bulgari Claudia Cardinale, whose film career spanned six decades, famously embraced la dolce vita through her vast Bulgari jewelry collection. asserted

career → span → collection

Christie → die → 1974
