A unique Bugatti watch designed especially for none other than Cristiano Ronaldo has been unveiled by upscale watch company Jacob & Co. The 37-year-old soccer icon collaborated extensively with Jacob Arabo, the company’s creator, to create the custom item exactly to his specifications. The watchmaker claims that the wristwatch has been carefully designed and built to match Ronaldo’s customised Bugatti Chiron. According to the images, the one-of-a-kind watch is modeled after the watchmaker’s Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon Baguette model, one of the most intricate watches ever created.
232 white baguette diamonds and 109 black sapphires totaling 21 carats are entirely covered by the 232 white baguette diamonds and 109 black sapphires that make up the CR7 watch, according to information provided by Jacob & Co. The custom watch additionally distinguishes itself from the model’s basic variations with the addition of the CR7 marking on the dial. The watch’s translucent design is well complemented by the satin-finished champagne gold used for the skeletonized dial and the intricate movement.
The functional tiny reproduction of the Chiron’s W16 engine made of translucent sapphire crystal is one of the features of the Jacob & Co. Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon Baguette model. The 16 tiny pistons inside the transparent W16 engine block begin to pump up and down as soon as a button is pressed, bringing the automaton to life. The watch is driven by a 578-part, manually wound JCAM3 movement from Jacob & Co. that has a 30-degree inclined flying tourbillon and a 60-hour power reserve. Additionally, a functional shock-absorbing system is used to suspend the movement, which is evident on the dial. The model has a $1 million starting price. However, since the CR7 variant was made just for Ronaldo, it is impossible to assign a price to it. In actuality, Jacob Arabo himself delivered the watch to the prominent soccer player.
Cristiano Ronaldo is a well-known car aficionado who keeps a collection of some of the most expensive and unique vehicles in his garage. The French carmaker, however, is honorably patronized by the legendary Portuguese soccer player. He owns three Bugatti hypercars in his collection. The first one was a Veyron that he bought somewhere in 2016, and the second one was a Chiron that was uniquely designed for him. In reality, Ronaldo was among the first buyers to receive a Chiron, and he also made an appearance in a commercial for the supercar made by Bugatti. A Bugatti Centodieci, a limited-production variant of the Chiron with just 10 specimens in existence and a price tag north of $9 million, is the newest addition to his garage.
