Renowned soccer sensation Cristiano Ronaldo has recently acquired a one-of-a-kind timepiece, drawing inspiration from his prized possession, the $3 million Bugatti Chiron. Crafted by Jacob & Co., this exceptional watch showcases a remarkable miniature rendition of the Chiron’s 16-cylinder engine, mirroring the iconic supercar’s black and silver color scheme while proudly featuring Ronaldo’s signature CR7 brand logo.
Jacob & Co. initially introduced a blue variant of this luxurious watch in January, valuing it at $1.5 million. Ronaldo’s bespoke timepiece, however, boasts an opulent touch, adorned with a dazzling array of 232 white baguette diamonds and 109 black sapphires, collectively amounting to an impressive 21 carats of precious gemstones.
Ronaldo’s passion for collecting high-end automobiles is well-known, as evident from his Instagram feed, which showcases him alongside models from various prestigious brands. Among his extensive collection, the Bugatti Chiron undoubtedly holds a special place, though it may face competition. In a jaw-dropping sale in 2019, Bugatti unveiled the “La Voiture Noire” (French for “The Black Car”), a one-of-a-kind Chiron variant, which found a mystery buyer willing to part with a staggering $19 million to claim this automotive masterpiece.
