Introduction to Bobby Wooten
Bobby Wooten is a New York-based musician whose career spans an unusually broad range of disciplines. Best known as a bassist, he has worked extensively on Broadway — most notably as part of the David Byrne musical Here Lies Love — while also building a parallel reputation as a composer and producer in pop and experimental music contexts. He received a Grammy nomination that underscored a profile already elevated by high-profile collaborations and a stage presence that moves comfortably between concert halls, recording studios and major cultural events.
The Bobby Wooten watch collection, as documented by our photographers, currently numbers one confirmed sighting, but it is a well-chosen one. At the Met Gala — an event where wrist real estate gets as much attention as any other accessory — Wooten was spotted wearing the Oris Aquis Date Cherry Diamonds. The reference is a 41.5mm stainless steel dive watch built around a deep cherry-red sunburst dial set with diamonds, a combination that sits at an unusual intersection of sport-watch architecture and jewellery-adjacent finishing. It is a production piece from Oris's Aquis family, which is itself grounded in serious water-resistance credentials and a relatively accessible price point within the Swiss watch market.
The choice of the Aquis Date Cherry Diamonds at the Met Gala says something specific about Wooten's sensibility. Rather than reaching for a dress watch or a recognisable luxury brand totem, he wore a piece that carries functional DNA — a rotating bezel, a diver's case profile — while the red dial and diamond indices push it toward something more considered for a formal setting. It reflects the kind of thinking common among musicians who treat watches as personal objects rather than status signals, letting the detail do the work without defaulting to the obvious choice.

The Oris Aquis Date Cherry Diamonds is one of the Swiss independent brand's most visually striking executions of its core dive platform — pairing a deep burgundy sunburst dial with lab-grown diamond hour markers and a diamond-set bezel, all rated to 300 metres water resistance. That combination of tool-watch credibility and jewellery-forward aesthetics makes it an unusual red-carpet choice. Grammy-nominated bassist, composer and producer Bobby Wooten wore it to the Met Gala, signalling a confident departure from the predictable luxury watch playbook.
