Cristiano Ronaldo’s fondness for watches has taken center stage as he has amassed a luxury collection after moving to Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s interest in watches has increased since his transfer to Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia. From the start, he was given a one-of-a-kind Jacob & Co. clock marking his transfer, an opulent 18K white gold watch embellished with emerald green hues reminiscent of the Saudi flag. It was worth £630,000 and marked the beginning of Ronaldo’s extravagant watch collection.
This bespoke present, however, only touches the surface of Ronaldo’s horological passion. What is his most valued possession? A £1.6 million Franck Muller Invisible Baguette Diamonds Imperial Tourbillon exemplifies his taste for the unusual. Ronaldo’s fascination in haute horlogerie appears to have no financial bounds, with a reported weekly earnings of £3.3 million.
During his time in Saudi Arabia, Ronaldo continued to add to his collection. Another Saudi-inspired Jacob & Co. creation, valued £92,000, included his iconic celebration, adorned with 26 baguette-cut white diamonds. His extravagant purchases continued, including a £750,000 Jacob & Co. clock.
Ronaldo was more than just a collector, he became a shareholder in Chrono24, a watch-selling platform, and tapped into the industry’s immense potential. His estimated £5 million collection epitomizes personal luxury and serves as thoughtful gifts. Ronaldo’s gift of a £110,000 watch to former UFC champion Francis Ngannou demonstrates his readiness to share his enthusiasm for high-end watches.
Ronaldo’s watch journey represents more than just luxury; it demonstrates his dedication to the highest level of craftsmanship. Ronaldo’s watches serve as a monument to his appreciation for the artistry and refinement of watchmaking as he continues to expand his collection and share his enthusiasm with others. He’ll be a very busy man after he quits from football.
