Mark Zuckerberg never stops wearing incredible watches. In September 2024, we told you about the new passion of the boss of Meta for luxurious timepieces. He was seen wearing a Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar 5236P, a model worth around 140,000 euros. Then in October, we listed the latest nuggets worn: an FP Journe Chronométrie Souverain ‘Havana’ in platinum, a Master Ultra Thin Kingsman Knife from Jaeger-LeCoultre, a DB25 Starry Varius from De Bethune… In short, heavy stuff. But it was – almost – nothing compared to the watch worn on New Year’s Eve.
On his Instagram account, Mark Zuckerberg wished his followers a happy new year with his wife Priscilla Chan. In the photo posted, in addition to the joyful smiles of the transition to 2025, those most attentive were able to see that Mark Zuckerberg seemed to be wearing a gold watch. They were absolutely right.

Mark Zuckerberg dressed to the nines for this annual transition as he opted for a very rare vintage Rolex. This is the Cosmograph Daytona in 18-carat yellow gold Ref. 6239 “Paul Newman, with a champagne dial. A model with a 37 mm case that would enter very high in our ranking of the most beautiful Daytonas!
According to watch specialists, less than 300 examples of this Rolex dating from 1969 were made, which explains its price. It would be around 850,000 euros. A gigantic sum for ordinary mortals but which is not much for Mark Zuckerberg whose fortune is estimated at 202 billion dollars according to Forbes (as of January 2, 2025), or just over 196 billion euros.
Mark Zuckerberg’s choice confirms his growing appetite for watches. We can’t wait to see what’s next on his wrist!
