WIMBLEDON may be a tennis match but some of the biggest serves are taking place off court and on the wrists of guests sitting in the stands. Coveted Rolexes, new release Tudors and the flexing of hard-to-find unicorns have turned the British tennis season into a watch spotters free-for-all.

And we’re here for it.

The annual tennis match has long been a barometer for trend spotting when it comes to off-duty, elevated tailoring. David Beckham has been one of the best on-ground, every year, for both his choice in watch (Tudors, mostly) and his choice in suits (always on point, never naff pastels) but the last couple of years there’s been some strong competition.

It’s early days yet, but we’re already calling it for Andrew Garfield, with his Bee Gee’s blow out (courtesy of his coming television series Wild Things: Siegfried & Roy inspired by the eponymous Vegas showmen). The 42-year-old actor, who showed up accompanied by his girlfriend, A Complete Unknown star Monica Barbaro, nailed it with a monochrome sky blue Ralph Lauren shirt and trousers. And that hair.

But it was an until-moments-ago unreleased IWC Ingenieur on the actor’s wrist that has us most excited.

But special shout out to Richard E. Grant, perhaps the only man who makes double fisting (a Cartier de Santos on one and an heirloom Breitling Navitimer on the other other) look good.
