Meet Ishaan Khatter – the young Bollywood heartthrob who’s capturing the attention of audiences on OTT platforms and social media alike.

Ishaann Khatter keeps to the rules of minimalist fashion with Cartier

Now, meet the Tank Must Medium — Cartier’s iconic vibe with a modern twist. This one’s got major style energy: shiny steel case, black lacquer dial and silver sword-shaped hands. 

Khatter carried this classic timepiece by Cartier with ease for a dinner do at the Festival de Cannes 2025. Wearing a Dior ensemble that exemplifies tailoring perfection and minimalism, Khatter added a Cartier to complete the look. The Tank Must Medium wraps seamlessly around his wrist, echoing the structured fitting of his attire. The crown rocks a cool cabochon spinel. Comes with a sleek black alligator strap and classic buckle. Size? 33.7 x 25.5 mm and just 6.6 mm thick—super slim! Powered by a High Autonomy quartz movement, so it’s low-key low-maintenance. Drip meets timeless class!

Couture meets complication as Ishaan Khatter compliments his designer ensemble with the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Chronograph at the Cannes red carpet

For his red carpet debut, Khatter chose the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Chronograph. Initially designed for polo players, this timepiece is a total flex for watch lovers. Designed initially for polo players, this throwback beauty brings serious 1930s vibes with its sleek rectangular case (49.4 x 29.9 mm), but with a modern twist. On the flip side? A retro-cool 30-minute chronograph with a unique retrograde counter, inspired by the 1996 OG Reverso Chronograph.

The steel version stuns with a blue-grey sunburst dial made using next-level ALD tech—super thin titanium oxide layers = major glow-up. Inside, it’s powered by the hand-wound Calibre 860, a beast of a movement that’s fully integrated, rocking a column wheel and horizontal clutch for that slim, smooth finish. Bonus: both dials move in sync, thanks to a slick dual-system setup. It’s vintage-meets-modern – an apt choice for Khatter’s couture look at the premiere of his film ‘Homebound’ at the Cannes film festival.

Now, let’s talk about serious watch flex: the Reverso Tribute Duoface Tourbillon – Khatter’s choice for a photocall at Festival de Cannes. During the promotion of his film ‘Homebound’ Khatter opted for this mechanical masterpiece with main-character energy. It’s a flying Tourbillon that’s living its best life with no top bridge in sight — giving you a crystal-clear view of that gorgeous S-shaped balance spring doing its hypnotic dance.

This little legend is made of 62 tiny components, and get this — it weighs less than 0.5 grams. Hand-assembled at the elite Grandes Complications workshop, it’s basically haute couture for your wrist.

Housed in a sleek steel case, this Reverso stunner runs on Jaeger-LeCoultre’s in-house calibre 847, which is a wild 3.9 mm thin. And it comes with that iconic Duoface feature — double the dials, double the drip. The front keeps it classy with a subtle sunray grey dial, but flip it over and bam — the back’s a whole art gallery. Crafted at the Atelier des Métiers Rares™, the reverse side rocks a jaw-dropping Clous de Paris guilloché pattern — done entirely by hand. Fun fact: that guilloché bridge alone took 232 engraved lines and 1,392 precise movements to finish. 

With that Khatter continues to slay his Cannes appearances and to make waves on social media.
