NAMED ONE OF WATCHPRO MAGAZINE’S “HOT 100” - THE TOP 100 INFLUENCERS OF THE U.S. WATCH INDUSTRY. HOW CAN WE SERVE YOU? We’re new to offering our carefully curated collection on 1stDibs, but we have sold over 10,000 fine watches and exceptionally served thousands of customers with a 5.0 star rating. MR Melissa Rivers Prototype Ladies Watch - PERSONALLY OWNED BY JOAN RIVERS with COA Certificate of Authenticity - Full Provenance with 2 COAs - 1 Year Warranty Today's offering showcases this uniquely meaningful from our Celebrity Collection: A prototype MR Melissa Rivers wristwatch created by Melissa Rivers and gifted to her mother, the legendary comedian and television icon Joan Rivers. Coming from Joan Rivers’ estate, this watch represents a personal gesture and has ownership by both Melissa and her mom. Joan Rivers was one of the most consequential figures in American entertainment. A trailblazing stand-up comedian, Emmy Award–winning television host, best-selling author, and relentless cultural commentator, she reshaped comedy by refusing to temper her voice or ambition. From her early breakthroughs on The Tonight Show through decades of stand-up, television, books, and live performance, Rivers sustained a career that spanned more than fifty years - an achievement nearly without parallel. In the later phase of her career, Joan Rivers experienced a second cultural peak through fashion commentary and red-carpet television, often appearing publicly alongside her daughter Melissa Rivers. Together, they formed one of entertainment’s most recognizable mother–daughter duos, hosting red carpets, moderating panels, and appearing jointly in fashion and media coverage. Their on-camera dynamic - affectionate, sharp, and unscripted - offered audiences a rare glimpse into a genuine working family relationship at the center of pop culture. This watch belongs squarely within that context. Melissa is also the author of Red Carpet Ready: Secrets for Making the Most of Any Event You Attend, a candid guide drawn from decades navigating Hollywood’s most visible stages. Following the passing of her mother, Melissa Rivers assumed stewardship of one of the most influential legacies in American comedy, serving as executive producer on Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work and Joan Rivers: A Dead Funny All-Star Tribute, both praised for their restraint, honesty, and emotional intelligence.   This watch: Signed simply “MR” on the dial, the watch showcases a Melissa Rivers watch creation. The white oval dial is set within a curved rectangular sterling silver case, creating a jewelry-forward design that feels intentional rather than trend-driven. Bold black Roman numerals, slender elegant hands, and the discreet “Quartz” designation complete a layout that favors clarity and classical balance. The case is bright, smoothly polished sterling silver with softly rounded edges and integrated lugs. Turning the watch over reveals a boldly engraved caseback reading “Melissa Rivers – The Sterling Connection,” accompanied by additional markings confirming a sterling silver case, stainless steel back, Japanese quartz movement, and caliber V377. It shows minimal evidence of wear, consistent with careful preservation rather than regular use. The original sticker is still in place. We have not done anything to the outside of it - we left it just as we acquired it. On the inside, one of our Master Watchmakers has installed a new battery making it ready for immediate enjoyment. Our's Renowned Celebrity Collection: This watch is part of our Celebrity Collection of watches that has been featured in GQ, Revolution Watch, Europa Star, JCK, Hampton's Magazine, Gotham Magazine, Vegas Magazine, Silicon Valley magazine and many others. eBay just recently partnered with us for an exclusive, special sale for seven of the watches.
