Showtime\u2019s\u00a0Billions\u00a0<\/em>is both provocative and timely. Showing both the thrill and peril of chasing the American Dream,\u00a0Billions\u00a0<\/em>gives us an inside look at the world of ultra-wealth, influence and corruption.<\/p>\n

With many powerhouses \u2013 led by billionaire hedge fund king Bobby “Axe” Axelrod (Damian Lewis) and well-connected U.S. Attorney Chuck Rhoades (Paul Giamatti), you can be sure there are some rather fine watches on the show.<\/p>\n

Let’s check them out:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Bobby \u201cAxe\u201d Axelrod may be a billionaire, but his personal style belies his status. Often dressed in jeans, pullovers, shirts, and sneakers, Axe means business and needs clothes he can move around fast in. The only clue to his taste would probably be his timepieces.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s seen wearing a blue camouflage\u00a0Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore<\/a> Chronograph\u00a0in Season 4. Shown here is a more subdued brown dial blue inner bezel model.

A self-made man who built an empire, Axe enjoys all the trappings of success, but keeps his look down-to-earth.<\/p>\n

On days off, he likes to wear his\u00a0Cartier Roadster<\/a> Chronograph. The stainless steel watch is not as flashy as we\u2019d expect from a billionaire, but it\u2019s a timeless statement of upscale style \u2013 and that\u2019s exactly what Axe is all about.

Perhaps the most special watch spotting didn\u2019t happen on the lead actors\u2019 wrists. Taylor (Asia Kate Dillion), Axe Capital\u2019s CIO, waltzed into a Fifth Avenue boutique in search of the legendary\u00a0Patek Philippe<\/a> ref. 5270R Perpetual Calendar. They purchased it on the spot. Photo from Sotheby’s<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n
\n

Axe has also been spotted with the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak<\/a>. While it’s more understated than his usual Offshore watch, the classic Royal Oak is still a trailblazer among watches. First released in 1973, it\u2019s the first luxury steel watch; its octagonal case and integrated bracelet also set it apart; and laid the foundation for the entire luxury sports watch genre.

\u201cDollar\u201d Bill Stearn (Kelly Aucoin) has a no-nonsense attitude when it comes to money, and that\u2019s how he earned his monicker. He keeps the same no-frills attitude when it comes to style. His choice timepiece is the Tag Heuer Aquaracer<\/a>: a robust and versatile dive watch and chronograph in one.
