B. Jordan won his first Best Actor Oscar for <em>Sinners<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>He wore a vintage 1970s Piaget reference 9297 for the night<\/li>\n<li>The watch features an 18k yellow gold case and pav\u00e9 diamond dial center<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>At the 98th Academy Awards, Michael B. Jordan celebrated a career-defining milestone, taking home his first-ever Oscar for Best Actor for his dual role as identical twin brothers in Ryan Coogler\u2018s <i>Sinners<\/i> \u2014 the horror-drama broke Academy records with an unprecedented 16 nominations.<\/p>\n<p>True to his well\u2011documented preference for sophisticated, neo\u2011vintage watches over trend\u2011driven designs, Jordan selected a Piaget reference 9297 to anchor his red\u2011carpet look. His personal collection already includes iconic luxury sports models such as the Vacheron Constantin 222, the Rolex Day\u2011Date, and rare vintage pieces like the Patek Philippe \u201cHour Glass.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>For this historic night, however, he turned to Piaget \u2014 a brand that appears to hold a special place in his collection. The 9297, likely dating from the 1970s, is an understated dress watch distinguished by its Tank\u2011style case in 18k yellow gold and a dial that dazzles with a center set of pav\u00e9 diamonds. Elegant yet restrained, the watch perfectly complemented Jordan\u2019s moment of triumph, embodying both timeless craftsmanship and personal significance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"show-article\">\n<p>                                                            Read Full Article<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<footer>\n<div class=\"related-stories-main-wrapper\">\n<h3>Related Stories<\/h3>\n<div class=\"stories-container\" data-layer-list-name=\"related_stories\" data-layer-list-offset=\"0\" data-layer-list-child-selector=\".story-item\">\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6691523\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>Jacob &amp; Co.

B. Jordan won his first Best Actor Oscar for <em>Sinners<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>He wore a vintage 1970s Piaget reference 9297 for the night<\/li>\n<li>The watch features an 18k yellow gold case and pav\u00e9 diamond dial center<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>At the 98th Academy Awards, Michael B. Jordan celebrated a career-defining milestone, taking home his first-ever Oscar for Best Actor for his dual role as identical twin brothers in Ryan Coogler\u2018s <i>Sinners<\/i> \u2014 the horror-drama broke Academy records with an unprecedented 16 nominations.<\/p>\n<p>True to his well\u2011documented preference for sophisticated, neo\u2011vintage watches over trend\u2011driven designs, Jordan selected a Piaget reference 9297 to anchor his red\u2011carpet look. His personal collection already includes iconic luxury sports models such as the Vacheron Constantin 222, the Rolex Day\u2011Date, and rare vintage pieces like the Patek Philippe \u201cHour Glass.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>For this historic night, however, he turned to Piaget \u2014 a brand that appears to hold a special place in his collection. The 9297, likely dating from the 1970s, is an understated dress watch distinguished by its Tank\u2011style case in 18k yellow gold and a dial that dazzles with a center set of pav\u00e9 diamonds. Elegant yet restrained, the watch perfectly complemented Jordan\u2019s moment of triumph, embodying both timeless craftsmanship and personal significance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"show-article\">\n<p>                                                            Read Full Article<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<footer>\n<div class=\"related-stories-main-wrapper\">\n<h3>Related Stories<\/h3>\n<div class=\"stories-container\" data-layer-list-name=\"related_stories\" data-layer-list-offset=\"0\" data-layer-list-child-selector=\".story-item\">\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6691523\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>Jacob &amp; Co.

His personal collection already includes iconic luxury sports models such as the Vacheron Constantin 222, the Rolex Day\u2011Date, and rare vintage pieces like the Patek Philippe \u201cHour Glass.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>For this historic night, however, he turned to Piaget \u2014 a brand that appears to hold a special place in his collection. The 9297, likely dating from the 1970s, is an understated dress watch distinguished by its Tank\u2011style case in 18k yellow gold and a dial that dazzles with a center set of pav\u00e9 diamonds. Elegant yet restrained, the watch perfectly complemented Jordan\u2019s moment of triumph, embodying both timeless craftsmanship and personal significance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"show-article\">\n<p>                                                            Read Full Article<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<footer>\n<div class=\"related-stories-main-wrapper\">\n<h3>Related Stories<\/h3>\n<div class=\"stories-container\" data-layer-list-name=\"related_stories\" data-layer-list-offset=\"0\" data-layer-list-child-selector=\".story-item\">\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6691523\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>Jacob &amp; Co.
