Wrist Game in Paradise: The Watches of The White Lotus Season 3

Timothy & Victoria Ratliff – Rolex Day-Date 40

The power couple of the season, Timothy and Victoria Ratliff, both wear the Rolex Day-Date 40—an iconic timepiece often dubbed the "President's Watch." It’s more than a luxury flex; it’s a reflection of their self-perception. It’s sleek, classic, and packed with quiet power. Timothy wears it with the ease of a man who sees leadership as a birthright, while Victoria’s choice subtly echoes her desire for stability and legacy. Matching watches might seem quaint, but in their case, it screams control and calculated symmetry. Each piece is valued around €40.000, but the message they send together? Ruthless unity. These watches not only reflect the characters' power dynamic but also underscore the show's ongoing commentary on wealth as armor—and performance.

Saxon Ratliff – Hublot Big Bang Unico & Rolex Milgauss

Saxon doesn’t do subtle. That’s clear the moment his wrist flashes the bold Hublot Big Bang Unico “Black Magic.” With its 45mm ceramic case, skeleton dial, and industrial vibe, it’s loud, disruptive, and in your face, just like him. It’s a watch for someone who wants to be seen and remembered. But mid-season, we see a shift. Saxon swaps the Hublot for a Rolex Milgauss, a quirky, understated model with anti-magnetic shielding and a lightning bolt seconds hand. A choice for someone who, perhaps, is learning to tone down the performance and take control of the chaos. Is this a subtle turning point in his character arc? It feels deliberate. The Hublot runs around €20.000, while the Milgauss, discontinued in 2023, is trending toward €10.000, and rising. Its inclusion in the show could fuel a resale boom.

Lochlan Ratliff – Omega x Swatch MoonSwatch “Mission to Saturn”

In a family obsessed with image, Lochlan stands out by not trying to. His pick? The Omega x Swatch MoonSwatch “Mission to Saturn.” It’s fun, fresh, and priced around €300—a playful move that still turns heads. It’s not about flexing; it’s about taste. The muted colors and Saturn subdial hint at someone who’s curious, thoughtful, and not quite sold on the luxury lifestyle around him. It’s also the only watch in the show that feels properly Gen Z. No smartwatches in sight either—maybe on purpose. This season keeps time old-school: real hands, real stories, real character.

Jaclyn – Hermès Nantucket

Jaclyn wears the Hermès Nantucket with a quiet kind of power. The slim, rectangular case paired with a rose gold bracelet is the kind of elegance that doesn’t need to prove anything. At around €11.000, it’s not the flashiest watch in the show—but it might be the one that says the most. She doesn’t need to show off. She just needs you to know she’s been here longer than you.

Laurie – Cartier Baignoire

Laurie wears a Cartier Baignoire—and it suits her perfectly. The watch has a soft oval shape and a clean, classic look. It’s not loud or trendy, but that’s exactly the point. It reflects Laurie’s calm and confident personality. As a corporate lawyer, she doesn’t need to flash her wealth—she lets her actions speak. At around €7.000, the Baignoire feels like a smart, personal choice. Simple, elegant, and strong—just like her.

Sritala – Jacob & Co. Fleurs de Jardin

Sritala doesn’t walk into a room, she arrives. And so does her watch. The Jacob & Co. Fleurs de Jardin is less timepiece, more kaleidoscope. Floating tourbillons, gemstone flowers, a domed sapphire crystal, all in one rotating mechanical masterpiece. The price of this watch? Starting at around €200.000, this is a serious watch. For someone who’s all about image, power, and putting on a show, there could be no better match. And visually? It’s easily the most cinematic watch of the season. One glance and you know, this isn’t just a watch, it’s a weapon.

Rick Hatchett – Timex Q GMT & Rolex Datejust on Leather

Rick’s watches quietly reflect two different sides of who he is. First up, the Timex Q GMT. An affordable, no-nonsense reissue of a 1970s quartz diver. It costs just €250, but it carries confidence. It’s the kind of watch worn by someone who doesn’t need to impress anyone. Someone who's seen a lot and knows what matters.

Later in the season, we catch a glimpse of something more personal: a vintage Rolex Datejust 116139  on a leather strap. It’s warm and understated, with that classic pie-pan dial and a softer silhouette thanks to the strap. It suggests a different past—one that involved taste, heritage, maybe even a bit of old money. Not flashy, just quietly significant. Depending on condition, that Datejust starting at around €12.000. Two watches, one man, and a whole lot of story between the lines.

Valentin – Vostok Amphibian

Valentin keeps things simple—and that’s what makes his choice so interesting. He wears a Vostok Amphibian, a tough little dive watch from Russia that costs about €150. It’s not shiny or expensive, and that’s exactly the point. While others are flashing gold and diamonds, Valentin’s watch tells a different story. Maybe it hints at a life with different priorities. Maybe it’s something he’s had for years. Either way, it fits him. Quiet, strong, and a little mysterious. Just like Valentin.

Fabian – TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Solid Gold 39mm

Fabian, the ever-composed hotel manager with a hidden flair for the dramatic, wears a TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph in solid yellow gold—one of the boldest under-the-radar choices of the season. For roughly €20.000 this watch is yours! This 39mm chronograph is all about heritage and presence. 

The solid gold case gives it weight, both literally and metaphorically, and the black alligator strap makes it unmistakably refined. It’s a powerful yet quiet flex, just like Fabian himself—measured, elegant, and often underestimated. And let’s be honest—it hits different under the tropical sun.

Behind-the-Scenes Watch Curation

While no official partnerships have been disclosed, it’s clear the costume team, possibly with input from actors, crafted each wrist story with precision. Did the actors choose their own watches? Was Saxon’s switch stylist-driven or character-inspired? These are the behind-the-scenes mysteries we’d love answers to. Across all three seasons, the symbolic weight of watches has only grown. It’s not just continuity—it’s a watchmaker’s wink to attentive fans.
