Cristiano Ronaldo was once again the protagonist at the Globe Soccer Awards, although this time not for his goals or his records. At the gala held in Dubai, the Portuguese stole the show with a luxury watch that left more than one person speechless: a Patek Philippe Nautilus Chronograph Ref. 5980/1400G, a fine watchmaking jewel valued at around $770,000, or around 705,000 euros.
The images of the footballer circulated at full speed on social networks. Watchmakers and fans began to identify the piece, belonging to one of the most exclusive segments of the market. It is not a model that can be found in shop windows; its production is extremely limited and is usually made to special order.
The watch that Cristiano chose is made of 18-carat white gold, with hour markers and hands made of the same precious metal. Both the bezel and the strap are completely set with diamonds, a detail that increases its value and makes it a piece reserved for high-profile collectors.
Another collector’s item
The Portuguese, who is still active in the final stretch of his career and is chasing the 1,000-goal barrier, added another collector’s item to his already famous repertoire of millionaire watches.
In his collection rest authentic works of art: a Girard-Perregaux Planetarium Tri-Axial worth 1.56 million euros, a Franck Muller Cintree Curvex Tourbillon valued at 1.38 million euros, a Jacob & Co. Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon CR7 Edition estimated at 920,000 euros, a Hublot Big Bang Integrated Tourbillon Sapphire Rainbow worth around 885,000 euros, and a Rolex GMT-Master II “Ice” worth almost 740,000 euros.
