You gotta have faith...in this watch.

March 02, 2021

The year 1987 was a big one for George Michael. Following his success with his band Wham! (a personal favorite, $10 if you can recall the name of his other half), Michael went out on his own and launched his debut solo album Faith.

With hits such as "I Want Your Sex" and "Kissing a Fool" – not to mention the title track (a karaoke classic!) – Michael was a pop star with the wrist candy to prove it. Here you can see him wearing a Bulgari BVLGARI wristwatch plus his signature cross earring.

The iconic watch is one of Bulgari's most recognizable pieces from that time. Originally launched in 1975 as a gift for top clients, the simple gold watch with black dial and brown calfskin strap became so popular that it found its way into a standalone collection. You can still find these lurking on eBay today, or can buy a brand new one in updated materials like carbon.
