Footballers are role models for young adults, and that means everything about their life gets scrutinised, including their luxury accessories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A luxury watch is often one of the first expensive items that footballers splash their cash on. Not only does a nice watch show status, but it also shows individual style and personal taste. So, we\u2019re here to break down the wrist candy of some of the most famous football players in the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-17172 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/04\/ronaldo.jpg\" alt=\"Ronaldo\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/04\/ronaldo.jpg 750w, https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/04\/ronaldo-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/04\/ronaldo-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Which footballer has the most expensive watch?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the watch world, it\u2019s pretty well-known that the most expensive Rolex watch belongs to Portuguese footballer Cristiano Ronaldo. The watch he owns is the Rolex GMT Master Ice and is worth around \u00a3371,000. It\u2019s one of the most expensive Rolex watches ever made and it is extremely rare. The reason it\u2019s so expensive is that it is made out of some of the finest materials, like 18ct white gold and 30 Carats of carefully cut diamonds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"enquirybutton\"><a href=\"https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/watches\/\">Instant Quote For Your Luxury Watch<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rolex and Omega are among the favourites<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Each footballer has their own individual taste, and this is certainly shown through the jewellery they wear on their wrist. Designer watch brands like Rolex and Omega tend to be a popular choice for sporting stars, but let\u2019s have a look at some of the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/watches\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">favourite luxury watches<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> of our favourite football players.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Paulo Dybala &#8211; Rolex Daytona 116595 RBOW<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dybala\u2019s Rolex is certainly a talking point, especially when he turned up to, no other than a Lamborghini factory sporting a unique wristwatch. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/watches\/rolex\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This watch is no ordinary Rolex<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. He owns the Rolex Daytona 116595 RBOW, which features a rainbow sapphire bezel and diamond-set lugs and crown guards. The watch retails for around \u00a3220,000 and is extremely rare to find. Dybala\u2019s watch is aimed at a younger audience, but if you do manage to get your hands on this luxury watch, then it\u2019s hard to miss as the Rolex Daytona 116595 RBOW certainly works as a strong statement piece.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cristiano Ronaldo &#8211; Rolex Daytona Chronograph<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the most influential footballers there has ever been. He has a whopping 336 million followers on Instagram, making him the most followed person on the app. His influence is huge, which means that everything about Ronaldo is scrutinised, including his watches. As <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/profile\/cristiano-ronaldo\/?sh=7e22806d565d\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">a new billionaire<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, we\u2019re sure that Ronaldo has more than one watch, in fact, he has a collection of high-end watches. Ronaldo is particularly fond of buying one-of-a-kind pieces, take the Rolex GMT Master Ice as an example. A watch which is covered entirely with diamonds, and is the most expensive new Rolex an individual can buy. Saying that Ronaldo has two Rolex Daytona Chronographs and has been seen wearing them throughout his entire career. One of his Daytona Chronograph watches is steel with a black dial, and the other is gold with mother-of-pearl and diamond dial &#8211; both the same watch but in very different styles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10900\" src=\"https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/09\/Ronaldo.jpg\" alt=\"Ronaldo\" width=\"626\" height=\"558\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/09\/Ronaldo.jpg 626w, https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/09\/Ronaldo-300x267.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/09\/Ronaldo-600x535.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 626px) 100vw, 626px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lionel Messi\u2019s Rolex Yacht-Master<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ever since Messi has been at Barcelona he\u2019s always stuck with the same couple of watches. Now, since his departure from the club he\u2019s called home for so many years, it&#8217;s not only his club that he\u2019s decided to change. When Messi won his first title at Barcelona in 2005, he bought an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and was often seen with this timepiece on his wrist. More recently, Messi has been spotted with a Jacob &amp; Co watch, in his native country colours of white and blue. However, he\u2019s clearly decided that it&#8217;s time for a change. A photo of Messi greeting fans at the airport, shortly after signing for his new club, Paris St-Germain has surfaced and<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hodinkee.com\/articles\/lionel-messi-arrives-in-paris-wearing-a-rolex-yacht-master\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> the watch on his wrist was noticeably different<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> &#8211; a Rolex Yacht-Master. Messi\u2019s choice in watches is perplexing, he didn\u2019t opt for the Daytona model nor the sporty Submariner. The Yacht-Master is a practical choice though as it\u2019s got a rubber strap and carefully crafted dial which is unlikely to ever wear or age. Messi\u2019s new watch signifies the end of an era, but also the start of an era, where the Rolex Yacht-Master gets the recognition it deserves.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Neymar &#8211; GaG\u00e0 Milano<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Neymar doesn\u2019t just wear this brand, he also is an ambassador for the brand too. Neymar has a capsule collection with GaG\u00e0 Milano, the watches even have this signature engraved onto the back of the dial case. Within the collection there are three different models; Skeleton, Diamonds and Chrono &#8211; all models are slightly different but share similarities, like their striking black strap. Neymar\u2019s collection is all set with diamonds and has his logo on the second hand. He\u2019s been frequently spotted wearing his collection.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"enquirybutton\"><a href=\"https:\/\/loveluxury.com\/topics\/watches\/\">Instant Quote For Your Luxury Watch<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Footballers have a collection of luxury watches<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Although they may only wear one watch at a time, that doesn\u2019t stop footballers from buying an entire collection of luxury timepieces. There are a few big brands of watches that footballers tend to be drawn towards. They include; Rolex, Patek Philippe, Jacob &amp; Co, and Audemars Piguet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Some of us will probably never end up playing professional football in our lifetime, however, you can get your hands on one of the luxury watches your favourite sports star owns.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the return of the Premier League and fans back in the stadium for the first time in over a year, football fever is back in the air.
