Game of Thrones may have ended, but its prequel is coming to our screens next year. Hong Kong Tatler identifies watches that would complement the epic’s key characters

Ruling over a vast legion of devoted followers who will go to any lengths for her, the superlative Dany demands and receives undying love, loyalty… and patience. Like her timepiece parallel, Rolex.

Jon Snow

Some observers only recently came to recognise the nobility at his heart, but savvy individuals have long known this hardy character’s somewhat humble bearing belies a great strength… and royal heritage. Well-bred battler Jon Snow is Tudor, heir to “the crown” (as Tudor’s parent company, Rolex, is commonly known) and commander of the Night’s Watch, which is surely a Black Bay Dark.

Like Jaeger-LeCoultre’s most famous model, the Reverso, stealthy adolescent assassin Arya Stark will change faces on you in the blink of an eye. Not one to ever be underestimated, as many a bigger, brasher adversary discovered.

Tyrion Lannister

Small in size but incredibly clever and always terrific fun, impish Tyrion Lannister is a horological match for MB&F.

Extremely elegant, this grand dame has been around a very long time and survived just about everything that history could throw at her, effortlessly adapting to the mood of the day while always remembering her proud heritage. In that, indomitable Queen Cersei parallels Vacheron Constantin.

Jaime Lannister

Wealthy, handsome, charming and all about keeping things in the family, Jaime Lannister is pure Patek Philippe (though most watches have at the very least two hands, while Jamie was sadly left with just one after a nasty incident in the third series). Just as a Lannister always repays his debts, a Patek positively promises outstanding ROI.

Sansa Stark

Statuesque, gorgeous, refined… perhaps seen as a little girlish once upon a time, but today considered strong, serious and magnificently mature—Sansa is Piaget.

A polarising figure, this edgy, hard-as-nails individual was nonetheless a firm favourite of numerous viewers. The Hound is Hublot.

Jorah Mormont
