For the last several years, Bradley Cooper has been one of the most beloved, and ubiquitous figures in Hollywood. The actor, who has now ventured into directing, writing, producing, and even occasionally singing, is a true multi-hyphenate artist who will likely continue to create high profile film projects for years to come.
What the casual viewer may not be aware of, however, is that in addition to being an artist, Cooper is also a watch aficionado as well. Therefore, it is worth taking a few moments to not only get to learn a little more about the man himself but also about the timepieces that so clearly reflect his personal style.
Who is Bradley Cooper?
Bradley Cooper was born on January 5, 1975, in Abington Township, Pennsylvania to Charles and Gloria Cooper. His father was a stockbroker who worked for Merrill Lynch, while his mother worked for the NBC affiliate. As a child, he excelled at both basketball and cooking, though he would later develop an interest in acting after seeing David Lynch’s film “The Elephant Man.”
He would graduate from Georgetown University in 1997 with a degree in English, though he would also become fluent in French during this time. Two years later, he would make his television debut in “Sex and the City” in a brief scene opposite Sarah Jessica Parker. He would also be a presenter on the television series Globe Trekker, which would allow him to travel to different locations around the world.
After appearing in Wet Hot American Summer in 2001, Cooper’s film career would begin to develop slightly, but it wasn’t until his appearance in Wedding Crashers in 2005 that he truly began to be recognized by audiences. Since that time, he has continued to work steadily in film and occasionally make television appearances. His most recent project, 2018’s “A Star is Born,” earned him 3 Oscar nominations and 2 Grammy awards.
Considering all of the success that he has had thus far professionally, Cooper will likely be a fixture on our screens for years to come.
What Timepieces Does Bradley Cooper Own?
Bradley Cooper is clearly a fan of luxury timepieces, as he owns several different pieces, primarily from the IWC brand.
IWC Le Petit Prince Annual Calendar
One of the most memorable watches in Cooper’s collection was an IWC Le Petit Prince Annual Calendar, which he wore to the 2018 Oscar Ceremony. The red-gold watch, which has a midnight blue dial, was engraved with a quote from Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s “The Little Prince.”
Cooper later auctioned off the watch for the Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Youth Foundation for an impressive $75,000, showing that he is both talented and charitable.
IWC Big Pilot

This is the watch that Cooper has been most photographed wearing, both on-screen and off, over the years, so it’s safe to say that he is legitimately a fan of the IWC brand. This is what likely led to him being signed as an official brand ambassador in 2018. He has often worn the watch to public events, such as movie premiers and Wimbledon, and it also appeared in the 2015 film “Aloha” as well.
