Watch Spotting Jennifer Aniston And Tom Selleck Wore Rolex Watches To The 'Friends Reunion'

Friends and watches are not necessarily a surprising pairing. The characters had a number of era-appropriate pieces throughout the show's original 10-year run. Courtney Cox's Monica Geller wore a Breitling Chronomat, David Schwimmer's Ross Geller had a TAG Heuer Professional (in the early seasons), and Jennifer Aniston's Rachel Green wore what looked like a Rolex Oyster Perpetual. There were fewer watches in the reunion, but they were no less cool.

The marquee timepiece was no doubt Jennifer Aniston's yellow gold Rolex Day-Date on a bracelet (also known as the "President"). She wears the watch when the entire cast gathers on the original set. What's most surprising, and cool, is that in some instances, she wore the watch over her sleeve – a style cue we've seen most notably from Gianni Agnelli. Aniston pulls it off very well.

Of course, the Day-Date is the quintessential classic Rolex watch, with its signature President bracelet with polished center links, and the day and date complication. Aniston's watch looks to be a vintage model (in some scenes you can catch a glimpse of the older style clasp which gives it away). For a star of her stature, this is a very fitting choice.

But, of course, that wasn't all we got. There's a segment in the reunion where the cast recreates a famous trivia game they played on the original show. It's during this game that a special guest-star makes an appearance: Tom Selleck, who played Richard, a long-running featured character. In watch circles, we all know Selleck from Magnum P.I. with his iconic Rolex "Pepsi" GMT-Master. For  those hoping he wore that same watch for this occasion, I'm sorry to disappoint.

Instead, Selleck has on a Rolex Daytona ref. 116515LN. His looks to be the modern ceramic bezel variant with a rose gold case and off-white dial on a leather strap. If you're going to forgo the GMT-Master, this isn't a bad second option. You can see the watch on his wrist while he's quizzing the cast on some classic Friends trivia (they weirdly know almost all the answers).

The Friends Reunion is now streaming on HBO Max. Come for the watches ... stay for the '90s nostalgia.
