"Astron"

Hiroshi Tanahashi is a star wrestler for New Japan Pro-Wrestling and also an avid fashion lover.

Tanahashi made his professional debut in 1999 and won his first title in 2003. He has since won numerous titles, including the G1 CLIMAX and the IWGP Intercontinental Championship, and currently holds the record for the most IWGP Heavyweight Championship reigns, making him a leading figure in the world of professional wrestling in both name and reality.

Tanahashi is wearing the Seiko Astron, which has an eye-catching black titanium case. The model features a sporty and unique design with an asphalt pattern dial.

On his Instagram, Tanahashi is dressed in an all-black Astron suit, giving him a chic look, but in the ring he wears a flashy outfit and greets the crowd with a smile, saying, "I love you!" His greedy attitude to liven up the industry is truly that of a "one in a hundred talent."

"Royal Oak Extra Thin" 18KPG
"Ref. 15202OR.OO.1240OR.01"

"Rainmaker" Okada Kazuchika is the man who makes it rain money in the world of professional wrestling.

He has been immensely popular since becoming the second youngest IWGP Heavyweight Champion in history in 2012. His entrance scene, in which he is dressed in a flashy gown and dances as a Rainmaker Doll with his face imprinted on it, is one of the most spectacular productions in New Japan Pro-Wrestling.

The one and only Kazuchika Okada wears an elegant 18KPG (pink gold) Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Extra-Thin. This is a reissue model commemorating the 40th anniversary of the Royal Oak, a masterpiece of the brand, and features the "AP" logo at 6 o'clock and a blue dial with a petit tapisserie pattern.

The brilliance of the top watch brand is a perfect fit for a man who brings money to the world of professional wrestling. With his outstanding athletic ability, handsome features, and one-hit kill Rainmaker, he also captures the hearts of women.

"Black Charisma"
Rolex worn by Masahiro Chono
『Submariner』SS/YG
"Ref.116613LB"

Former professional wrestler, Chono Masahiro , known as the "Black Charisma" for his sunglasses and black gown.

I don't think there's any need to explain his popularity or ability any further, but unlike his tough image in the ring, you can see his calm and gentlemanly side on his YouTube channel, "Chono Channel."

Chono is also known as a Rolex fan, owning several, with his favorite being the Submariner Date, commonly known as the "Blue Sub." This model was released in 2009 as the successor to the "Ref. 16613," and while it retains the same design, the bezel has been changed to ceramic, making it one of the most popular and well-known combination models.

He currently runs his own fashion brand, "ARISTRIST," and his sophisticated black-based style suits him well. Speaking of which, he appeared as the slap executive in the popular New Year's Eve show "Downtown no Gaki no Tsukai ya Arahende! Zettai wa Waratte Ikenai" (Nippon TV), but it was announced that he would be taking a break this year. I feel a little sad that I won't be able to see Chono's slaps again, but I also feel sentimental about how grateful I am for his hard work over the years.

"Mr. Pro Wrestling"
Worn by Genichiro Tenryu

"Day Date"
"Ref.118346A"

Finally, we would like to introduce Genichiro Tenryu, a great wrestler who holds the title of "Mr. Pro Wrestling."

He was a former sumo wrestler who turned to professional wrestling and, together with his rival, the late Jumbo Tsuruta, greatly enlivened All Japan Pro Wrestling and achieved great things. In recognition of his achievements, he was inducted into the Japan Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame for the first time in history last month.

Tenryu is a fan of the Rolex Day-Date, which has the same platinum case as the late Giant Baba, with diamonds on the bezel and dial.

At the time, Giant Baba was wearing one, and he decided that he would buy one himself someday. A professional wrestler's job is to give people dreams, so it is important to always be aware of their eyes. This Day-Date watch inherits Baba's thoughts, and there is something in common with the delicate presence hidden within its boldness. With the "Tenryu Project" now underway, we hope that Tenryu will continue to enjoy a pro wrestling career that is "full of excitement."

summary

That's all, what do you think?

Unlike a house or a car, a watch can be worn all the time, and for a wrestler who travels a lot, a watch can be the perfect reward, demonstrating his status and motivating him to work hard towards his goals.

Once again, I hope this article will help you choose your favorite one.

see you!
