Defender Gerard Pique

Gerard Pique is the linchpin of Barcelona's defense.

At 193cm tall and well-built, he has the physical strength to be an impeccable defender, and is especially strong in aerial battles. He was a figure who built an era for Barcelona, ​​and although he is now a veteran at 35 years old, he can still be said to be a central figure in the team.

The watch worn by Gerard Pique is

[Patek Philippe]
"Nautilus Chronograph"
"Ref.5980R-001"

Since its birth in 1976, the Nautilus has embodied casual elegance and was designed by the genius designer Gerald Genta. This is Patek Philippe's first ever sports chronograph model, released to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Nautilus, and features a dual sub-dial at the 6 o'clock position that displays a 60-minute counter and a 12-hour counter on the same axis. It features a rounded octagonal bezel, a case inspired by a ship's porthole, and a horizontally embossed dial, and the black-brown gradient dial gives off an elegant impression.

Our store has handled this model several times, and although it is priced at over 10 million yen, it always sells out immediately. Of course, it is difficult to purchase this model at an authorized store, so if you are interested in purchasing it, we recommend that you check the website regularly!

Forward Emerick Aubameyang

Aubameyang has incredible speed and an incredible sense of goal.

Many people have the image that "Aubameyang = fast runner", and that is correct. In the 30m sprint, he achieved an astonishing figure of "3.7 seconds", which is faster than the world record holder of the 100m sprint, "Usain Bolt".

The watch that Aubameyang wears is

[Rolex][Rolex]
"Day Date"
"Ref.228235"

The Day-Date is the highest-end line of Rolex, and as a watch owned by presidents and successful people, it has firmly established its status. The case is made only of gold and platinum, which gives it a luxurious feel. The model we are introducing this time combines a deep olive green dial, a luxurious fluted bezel, and the "President Bracelet" which is a sign of the highest-end line, making it a watch worthy of being a sign of success.

It is equipped with a new movement " Cal.3255 " developed exclusively for this model, and has a power reserve of approximately 70 hours. The day of the week calendar function is only available in the "Day Date Series," which is one of the points that makes it feel premium.

Next, the second one is,

[Audemars Piguet]
"Royal Oak Skeleton" 18KRG
"Ref.15332585 / 777XBRN005BUSS"

The Royal Oak, designed by Gerald Genta, is one of Audemars Piguet's masterpieces. This rare model features a slate-grey skeleton face that showcases Audemars Piguet's high level of technical skill. Two balances and a hairspring are set on the same axis, and the hairsprings expand and contract alternately, complementing each other to ensure precision and stability.

Even so, you can tell at a glance that this is a "super model"... (laughs) And it's no wonder. It is studded with a whopping 777 diamonds, and was made by customizing the Royal Oak skeleton. It's not something you see very often, and the fact that he can wear this model that only truly successful people can wear is just "as expected!"

summary

So, how did you think of today's game?

As a watch shop staff member, the model that caught my eye was the popular olive green dial "Ref. 228235" among the current "Day-Date" models. The combination of Rolex's corporate color green and Everose gold is very sexy and irresistibly cool.

So, which sportsman's watch will we focus on next time? We hope you'll be excited to find out.

See You Next Match!!
