Introduction to Spencer Matthews
Spencer Matthews first came to public attention as one of the central cast members of Channel 4's Made in Chelsea, the long-running structured reality series that followed the social lives of London's affluent young set. Over the course of several series, Matthews became one of the show's most recognisable faces. Since leaving the programme, he has repositioned himself as a serious entrepreneur, founding CleanCo, an alcohol-free spirits brand that has gained genuine traction in the UK market. He has also taken on endurance challenges and appeared in various television formats, building a profile that now sits as much in the business world as in entertainment.
When it comes to watches, Matthews has shown a preference for the upper tier of Swiss watchmaking. The Spencer Matthews watch collection, as far as public sightings allow us to document, points to a collector with a clear eye for technical depth rather than surface-level prestige. He has been spotted wearing the Patek Philippe Nautilus Chronograph in rose gold, reference 5980R-001 — a piece that sits at the top of the Nautilus range. Introduced in 2006 to mark thirty years of the Gerald Genta-designed Nautilus, the 5980 was the first model in the line to incorporate a chronograph complication, making it a genuinely significant reference within the collection and not simply an aesthetic variation on a familiar case.
The 5980R-001 in rose gold is among the more sought-after configurations of the reference, combining the integrated bracelet and horizontal embossed dial that define the Nautilus with a flyback chronograph movement of considerable finishing quality. For a former reality television personality turned founder, the choice carries a certain logic — it is a watch that rewards closer inspection, which broadly reflects how Matthews has approached his post-television career.

Inserted 30/11/2022
The Patek Philippe Nautilus 5980R-001 is one of the rarest expressions of the iconic integrated-bracelet sports watch family — a flyback chronograph in 18k rose gold that debuted in 2006 to mark the Nautilus's 30th anniversary. Beating at 28,800 vph via the in-house Calibre CH 28-520 C, it combines a salmon-toned dial with blue hands for a quietly arresting contrast. Spencer Matthews, entrepreneur and Made in Chelsea alumni turned gin brand founder, was caught on the wrist with this six-figure Genevan heavyweight.
