If you follow Netflix’s American political drama, it would seem as if everyone is overwhelmingly in control – even when it comes to their wardrobe.
As some of the most powerful men in the (fictional) world, the men in this series know that they cannot leave anything to chance, be it their political moves or how they present themselves.
Here’s what they wore on their wrists to achieve that compelling political style:
Cartier Tank Francaise and Tank Louis on Claire Underwood
Claire Underwood, played by Robin Wright, took over the main role in the final season of the show. Over the first five seasons of the show, she ascended from being Frank Underwood’s wife, First Lady of the United States, and finally the 47th President of the United States.

The ruthless, composed, and calculated Claire has impeccable style throughout the show – as seen in her excellently tailored dresses and luxurious evening wear. On her wrists are Cartier classics: the Tank Francaise and the Tank Louis.
IWC Portuguese on Frank Underwood
Frank Underwood always has an IWC on his wrist, and the Portuguese is his everyday watch. It is a classic IWC model, based on the original Portuguese watches in the 1930s.
Tag Heuer Monaco on Remy Danton
The Monaco is worn on the show by Remy Danton, Underwood’s former press secretary, played by Mahershala Ali. As one of the wealthier players on the show, he tends to care more about his appearance. His choice of a trendy watch is proof.
Cartier Tank Louis and Calibre de Cartier on President Garrett Walker
President Garrett Walker, played by Michael Gill, wears a Tank Louis XL on his inauguration as 45th President of the United States, after Obama.
Quiz … Which great Co. makes the watch that gives President Walker the time? @HouseofCards @netflix pic.twitter.com/VZh7JfeRIz

We also spotted him with the sporty and masculine Calibre de Cartier. With its aggressively styled dial and rubber strap, it’s an edgy timepiece to wear at the Oval Office.
Breitling Navitimer on Doug Stamper
The Navitimer is spotted on Doug Stamper, White House Chief of Staff and former director of strategy. His timepiece of choice reflects his dependability and precision.

Rolex Seadweller on Congressman Peter Russo
