The 96th Academy Awards have come and gone, Oppenheimer fittingly destroyed and Ryan Gosling proved he’s more than Ken-ough, but for many, eyes were elsewhere. The annual celebration of Hollywood opulence is arguably the biggest night for celebrity watch hunters and the 2024 edition didn’t disappoint. From Best Actor winner Cillian Murphy’s OMEGA De Ville Prestige to Chris Hemsworth‘s Audemars Piguet X Alyx Royal Oak Chronograph, the star-studded event delivered some knockout pieces.
