On the Wrist of Top Players
Erling Haaland - Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 6263
The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 6263 in 18k yellow gold, around 37mm, with screw-down pushers and a black acrylic tachymeter bezel, was produced through the 1970s and early 1980s during the golden era of hand-wound Daytonas. Its manual-wind Valjoux 727 chronograph, crisp sub-dials and warm gold patina define classic racing heritage. Gold examples are rarer than steel, with the "Paul Newman" dials highly collectible. Market range 900,000 to 1.5M euro and up.
Virgil van Dijk - Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Extra-Thin 15202ST "Jumbo"
Introduced in 2000 as the direct successor to the original 1972 Royal Oak, the 15202ST features a 39mm case and an ultra-thin 8.1mm profile. Its caliber 2121 automatic is one of the thinnest ever made, paired with the iconic Petite Tapisserie dial. Discontinued in 2022 with limited production, it remains highly sought-after. Market range 60,000 to 90,000 euro and up.
Robert Lewandowski - Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time 5164R
Introduced in 2018 in rose gold, the 5164R builds on the Aquanaut line first launched in 1997 as Patek's modern sport collection. At 40.8mm with a tropical composite strap, it carries the Travel Time complication with an independent local hour hand and day/night indicators. Powered by the caliber 324 S C FUS, it combines practicality and elegance. Market range 90,000 to 130,000 euro and up.
