From Dua Lipa to Vin Diesel: The Watches at Cannes 2026 and What They Cost in India

Every year, Cannes brings cinema's biggest names to the south of France. And every year, the wrists tell their own story.

At the 79th Cannes Film Festival, the watches spotted on the Croisette ranged from a Bvlgari Serpenti bracelet worth nearly Rs 2 crore on Dua Lipa's wrist to a Rolex Lady Datejust Vintage worn casually by Bella Hadid as she arrived at the port. Eight celebrities. Eight very different choices. All of them telling you something about what luxury really looks like in 2026.

Here is the complete list, with every India price confirmed.

All 8 Watches at Cannes 2026 and Their India Price

Dua Lipa: Bvlgari Serpenti Diamond and Emerald Bracelet (Rs 1,95,00,000)

Dua Lipa attended the Cannes 2026 Nespresso event wearing the Bvlgari Diamond and Emerald Serpenti Gold Bracelet, a jewellery timepiece coiling around the wrist with diamonds and emeralds set in yellow gold. At approximately Rs 1,95,00,000, it is the most valuable piece on this list.

The Serpenti is as much jewellery as it is a watch, which is precisely why it works. On a silver metallic dress with no other accessories competing for attention, the Bvlgari Serpenti was the entire statement.
