About Joe Sugg’s watch collection
Joe Sugg is a British YouTuber, content creator, and entertainer who first rose to prominence on YouTube around 2012, amassing millions of subscribers on his main channel and spin-off accounts. Born in Lacock, Wiltshire, he is the younger brother of fellow creator Zoe Sugg (Zoella) and built his following through a blend of comedy sketches, vlogs, and collaborative content. Beyond YouTube, Sugg has demonstrated a genuine range as a performer, finishing as runner-up on the 2018 series of Strictly Come Dancing in the UK, co-writing the graphic novel series Username, and working as a West End performer. He has remained a consistent presence in British digital media culture for well over a decade.
When it comes to watches, Sugg has been photographed wearing Rolex, which places him firmly in line with many of his YouTube and entertainment contemporaries who gravitate toward the Swiss manufacturer's more recognisable sports and luxury references. Specifically, he has been spotted wearing the Rolex Daytona reference 116523 — a two-tone model in stainless steel and 18ct yellow gold, fitted with a black dial and diamond-set numerals in place of the standard hour markers. At UK retail, this reference has been priced in the region of £12,600, though secondary market values fluctuate considerably given consistent demand for the Daytona line.
The Joe Sugg watch collection, as documented so far, centres on this single confirmed Rolex sighting, but it is a considered one. The ref. 116523 Daytona is a chronograph with genuine motorsport heritage dating back to 1963, and the two-tone configuration with diamond numerals positions it toward the dressier end of what is already a versatile sports watch. For a creator whose public profile blends approachability with mainstream celebrity, a Daytona reads as a deliberate and informed choice rather than an incidental one.
