The 5 most interesting watches sighted on Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee

Editor’s note: If you are like us, the word “watch” has two meanings when you’re in front of the TV — both viewing a program and inspecting the wristwatches of those on-screen. Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee is a buffet of interesting characters with equally interesting timepieces. With a little bit of time to think – and argue internally – about it, here are our five favourites across all series of the show. 

Jerry Seinfeld can do no wrong, and after having been streamed more than 100 million times, Seinfeld’s pet project, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, last year premiered its new season on Netflix after nine seasons as a web series on the digital network Crackle.

Staying true to the title’s premise, this simple yet compelling series sees Jerry introduce a new celebrity comedian in each episode, picking them up in a unique vintage car and heading out for coffee. The pair then riff, unscripted, on all manner of topics to varying comedic degree.

It’s safe to say that where there are celebrities there are luxury watches. We take a look at some of the best from this season and those that preceded it.

If you’ve ever seen an episode of the The Ellen DeGeneres Show, you’ll know that Emmy-winning host Ellen loves her vintage Rolex. And with Jerry also clearly a fan of watches, it was no surprise to see her show up wearing the heaviest of vintage Rolex heavyweights, a Rolex ‘Paul Newman’ Daytona.

Season 10, Episode 4: Jerry Seinfeld wears a Breitling Cosmonaute 01 Black Steel

Jerry Seinfeld’s love of Breitling continues. In this episode he takes comedian and former Saturday Night Live star Tracy Morgan for a drive in a 1984 Ferrari 288 GTO while sporting a Breitling Cosmonaute 01 Black Steel.

Season 10, Episode 11: Alec Baldwin wears a custom ‘blacked-out’ Rolex Daytona

Actor, writer, producer and comedian Alec Baldwin grew up in the same small town as Jerry Seinfeld. In this episode, they take a drive to their shared hometown in a 1974 BMW 3.0 CS coupe and we get a glimpse at a customised “blacked-out” Rolex Daytona on the wrist of Mr Baldwin.

Season 10, Episode 12: Jerry Seinfeld wears a Heuer ‘Siffert’ Autavia

With Jerry Seinfeld’s love of cars and watches it makes perfect sense that he would rock the legendary racing chronograph that is the Heuer ‘Siffert’ Autavia.

Season 3, Episode 10: Cedric the Entertainer wears a Richard Mille (most likely a) RM011-FM Rose Gold

The big personality that is Cedric the Entertainer is matched by his wristwear — a Richard Mille that looks to be a RM011-FM in rose gold.
