Barry Keoghan is one of the movie industry’s fast emerging young talents, one of the great young character actors of our day, an Academy Award nominee and BAFTA winner. The thing about Keoghan – with a lot of his roles you do a double-take to see that’s it’s him. That’s what we love about him.
In The Banshees of Inisherin, in his portrayal of Dominic Kearney, there’s the emotional scene with the character Siobhan Suilleabhain (Kerry Condon), where the young man sweetly and awkwardly expresses his love for Condon’s character, one of many pieces of gold that really marked that fine film. Here it is:
But how many of you know that he was the Joker in The Batman (2022), returning in the sequel later this year? Check out this deleted Arkham scene. This what we are talking about regarding Keoghan’s talents:
Barry Keoghan named latest OMEGA “Friend of the Brand”
Anyway, you get the point, and we’re looking forward to seeing what Keoghan delivers next. He’s also known for an expressive style off-screen, especially on red carpets. OMEGA sees it – and have named Keoghan their latest “Friend of the Brand”. He’s often accessorizing his style with chosen OMEGA models – the Speedmaster ’57 and a 1930’s Lepine “Sideros” pocket watch, which he wore to this year’s Met Gala.
This time, he’s wearing a Speedmaster Moonwatch – the brand has a new Bi-Colour version that combines stainless steel and 18K Moonshine Gold in one design. The sun-brushed silvery dial is framed by a black ceramic bezel, featuring the iconic tachymeter scale in OMEGA Ceragold, while the contrasting subdials are also presented in galvanic 18K Moonshine Gold. The bi-colour model worn by Keoghan here, and another in stainless and 18K Sedna Gold, is powered by the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861. Price is $24,600 CDN and is available in Canada at the OMEGA boutique in Vancouver.

I am a 50-something Torontonian who loves everything about my city. It’s been my home, my playground, for my entire life. I went to school here. I met my wife here. I own real estate here. I love writing about the transformation of my city on the world stage, which hasn’t been anything short of dramatic. That continues on, as I write this. I write on the real estate scene. I write on travel and fashion. I like following the world of luxury watches.
But I love writing about cars – check that, luxury cars, a level of superior, engineering sophistication, high performance and style, that transports you not just from one destination to another but also out of whatever you are going through on a particular day, whatever mood you are in, all to another head space. It’s complete and total exhilaration, head to toe.
