Kevin Hart’s Watch Collection
Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Oystersteel ref 116500LN
From what we heard in watch circles, Kevin Hart loves Daytonas to the point that he flaunts them at public events. He was already seen wearing at least six Daytonas including the 50th Anniversary Rolex Daytona in Platinum, a yellow gold Paul Newman, an Everose Daytona, one with a blue dial, and another in pink. Then, of course, he has this Oystersteel ref. 116500LN.
The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Oystersteel is built with highly-resistant steel particularly developed by Rolex. It also comes with a black Cerachom bezel with an engraved tachymeter. Moreover, it is equipped with caliber 4130, a self-winding mechanical movement with a 72-hour power reserve.
Rolex Day-Date II The President
Aside from Daytonas, Kevin Hart also different versions of Rolex Day-Date The President such as an all-gold one, a unique 18k Everose Gold Bronze Wave Dial, and the one in the photo above – an 18k Yellow Gold Baguette Diamond and Ruby Dial.
It’s not surprising that Hart also possesses this timepiece that has become a symbol of stature. However, this particular Rolex The President stands out because of the yellow gold case and bracelet, as well as the bezel and hour markers set with baguette-cut diamonds and rubies.

Rolex Sky-Dweller
Kevin Hart also has a variety of complex watches; one of which is the Rolex Sky-Dweller with 18k white gold and black dial. The Rolex Sky-Dweller is best for travelers as it shows two timezones simultaneously. The traditional analog display shows the local time and there is a 24-hour format disc to show the reference time. The Sky-Dweller also has an annual calendar. The months of the year are indicated at the outer rim and the current month is being marked in red.
Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar
Kevin Hart’s watch collection also contains a number of Audemars Piguet watches, including the classic Royal Oak Automatic in stainless steel, a Royal Oak Offshore in Rose Gold, a Royal Oak Open-Worked 40th Anniversary Watch, and the Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar – in White Ceramic (shown above) and in Black Ceramic.
These ceramic watches are lustrous and light when worn, which makes them look more elegant. The Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar White Ceramic, in particular, comes with a contrasting dark navy Grande Tapisserie-pattern dial. It also has a self-winding caliber 5134 movement with approximately 40 hours of power reserve. It features a perpetual calendar complication that shows the day, date, week, month and astronomical moon up to the year 2100.
Patek Philippe Celestial
Another complicated timepiece that Kevin Hart owns is the Patek Philippe Celestial. Again, he has two versions of this – one in Platinum case with baguette-cut diamonds on the bezel (shown above) and another in Rose Gold.
Its self-winding caliber 240 mechanical movement drives the complications that the wearer may admire on the dial. It includes a sky chart that shows the arrangement of the celestial bodies of a night sky, the movement of the stars, as well as the phases and orbit of the moon. If you’re wondering, it can also tell the local solar time with its two skeletonized hands. Attached to the alligator-textured leather strap, this timepiece is truly a masterpiece that horologers would love.
