J Balvin showcases rare Audemars Piguet watch at Venice Film Festival

Colombian artist J Balvin drew attention at the 2026 Venice International Film Festival with a distinctive fashion choice and a rare luxury timepiece. Attending the screening of Danny Boyle’s film ‘Ink’, Balvin eschewed traditional formal wear in favor of a patterned two-piece lightweight suit from Emporio Armani’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection.

The centerpiece of his ensemble was an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Ultra-Thin (ref. 26586BA. OO. 1240BA. 99). The highly exclusive watch is crafted from 18-karat yellow gold and features a monochromatic design. Only 88 units of this specific model were produced, which utilizes the Calibre 5133 ultra-thin automatic perpetual calendar movement.
