Discover October’s top 10 most-wanted watches on Bezel, from Rolex and Omega to Cartier. See which icons climbed, slipped, and reclaimed the spotlight.

Each month, we track the watches that collectors cannot stop talking about, the ones commanding attention, driving demand, and shaping the current mood of the market. After a summer dominated by divers and GMTs, October brings refinement rather than disruption. The familiar names remain, yet a few old favorites have found their way back, hinting at a shift toward nuance and nostalgia in modern collecting.

The white-dial Moonwatch returns for the first time since August. Once a quieter twist on the classic black-dial version, it is finding a new audience among collectors who appreciate subtle contrast over novelty. Its resurgence caps a month that quietly marks Omega’s strongest market presence yet.

After a summer spent in the shadows, the “Pepsi” is back on the radar. Demand for its red-and-blue bezel never really fades; it simply waits its turn. The model’s return suggests a renewed appetite for heritage tones after months defined by darker palettes and stealthier variations.

The Daytona “Panda” reclaims a top-ten position after missing last month’s list. Its comeback reminds us that hype can cool, but icons do not. Even as GMTs and divers dominate, the Daytona remains the chronograph by which all others are measured.

Replacing the Oyster-bracelet “Batman” that led September’s rankings, the Jubilee-equipped “Batgirl” shows how small differences can divide collectors. The blue-and-black bezel continues to hold its charm, proving that preference, not novelty, keeps the GMT conversation alive.

Slipping one spot from September yet still holding firm, the black-bezel Submariner remains the definition of consistency. Its six-month run in the rankings reinforces a truth few dispute: the Sub’s balance of form, function, and familiarity remains unmatched.

Cartier climbs back into the top five for the first time since July’s “Demoiselle” wave. The stainless-steel Santos delivers everyday versatility with unmistakable Parisian character. For many, it represents the bridge between design purity and practical wear, a refined counterpoint to Rolex’s technical dominance.

The Seamaster edges higher once again, marking four consecutive months in the top five and the strongest run yet for a modern Omega. Its titanium case and Bond lineage give it reach well beyond the dive category, appealing to collectors who like their tool watches with a touch of cinematic charm.

The classic black-dial Moonwatch holds its ground, continuing its unbroken streak near the top since spring. It is less a momentum play than a measure of permanence, the one watch that defines mechanical credibility across every level of collecting.

After two months at number one, the “Wimbledon” finally steps aside but not by much. Its mix of polish, versatility, and cultural familiarity keeps it among the most coveted watches on Bezel. Few references balance mass appeal and refinement with such ease.

The “Bruce Wayne” claims the top spot for the first time since August, closing out a steady rise that began this spring. Its slate-and-black bezel and Jubilee bracelet strike a perfect balance between modern stealth and classic appeal. This climb feels earned rather than engineered, a fitting finish for a watch that thrives in the dark.
