Forget the chain necklace, Mark Zuckerberg has a flashy new accessory.
The Meta CEO sported the De Bethune DB25 Starry Varius watch at a podcast event last week.
The Starry watch line can cost up to $260,000 if you spring for a dial created from a meteorite.
Mark Zuckerberg’s newest flashy accessory isn’t another chain necklace — it’s an ultrarare watch.
The Meta CEO was spotted wearing the De Bethune DB25 Starry Varius while speaking at a live taping of the “Acquired” podcast at Chase Center in San Francisco last week.
The watchmaker’s Starry line costs a lot — and top-of-the-line model can cost as much as a house.
The Varius model, which appears to be what Zuckerberg was wearing, costs around $90,000 to $95,700.

But the fancier DB25 Starry Varius Aérolite model — which includes a dial made from a meteorite — can cost around $260,000 and features a pattern of the Milky Way galaxy gilded with 24-carat gold leaf.

Zuck hasn’t always considered himself a watch guy.
A video from a pre-wedding party earlier this year for Anant Ambani, the son of the Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani, shows Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, admiring the younger Ambani’s watch.
“You know, I never really wanted to get a watch, but after seeing that, I was like, you know, ‘Watches are cool,'” Zuck says in the clip.
Meta did not immediately respond to Business Insider’s request for comment.
Zuck has been dressing more fashionably as part of a broader image overhaul. He’s even had a hand in creating some of the pieces in his wardrobe lately.
At the podcast taping, Zuck wore a new shirt he designed himself, bearing Greek text translating to “learning through suffering.” The tee called to mind one he wore at his 40th birthday party in May, a black shirt with the words “Carthago delenda est,” Latin for “Carthage must be destroyed.”
He also said in April that he’s “in the process of designing a long-term chain” on which he plans to engrave a prayer he reads to his three daughters.
And while it’s not part of his wardrobe, Zuck turned heads with another lavish spend lately: a 7-foot-tall sculpture of his wife.
During the “Acquired” podcast taping, Zuckerberg also spoke about his “20-year mistake” of taking responsibility for issues he says Meta didn’t cause. He talked about differences he sees between Meta and Apple’s company cultures and said he expects the iPhone maker to be Meta’s “primary competitor” in the next decade.
