Cristiano Ronaldo gifted custom watch worth over N86 million at Jacob & Co boutique launch

Cristiano Ronaldo has been gifted another custom watch ahead of the launch of a collection at Jacob & Co.

The luxurious watch company is set to launch a collection of timepieces that captures iconic moments from the five-time Ballon d’Or winner’s career.

The 'Heart of CR7 Baguette' watch that was given to the 38-year-old Portuguese captain is reportedly valued at N86.4 million (£92,000) and is one of four new models.

The classy green-coloured design features Ronaldo's iconic celebration on the back and is covered with 26 baguette-cut white diamonds on the frame.

The design is also completed with a black strap.

Ronaldo’s new gift from Jacob & Co. is not the most expensive from the new collection as the 'Flight of CR7 Baguette' is actually priced at over N108 million (£115,000).

The ‘Flight of CR7’ display includes a design showing Ronaldo scoring his iconic header during the Champions League clash against Manchester United in 2013.

The rose gold watch also has a red strap different from the one that Ronaldo was gifted.

The other two watches in the collection which come without the diamonds are valued at N41.3 million (£44,000) and N20.6 million (£22,000).

The latest launch by Jacob & Co was to celebrate the opening of its first boutique in Saudi Arabia.

Pulse Sports reported that Al-Nassr striker Cristiano Ronaldo was handed a luxurious gift following his switch to the Saudi giants.

The 38-year-old striker completed a mega-money move to the Middle East in December last year before being officially unveiled in early January, in a move that sees him earn a staggering £173 million per year.

The Portuguese superstar was also gifted a one-off Jacob & Co watch to celebrate his move to Saudi Arabia.

Ronaldo works with Jacob and Co and they created a one-of-a-kind Caviar Flying Tourbillon “Tsavorites for him, featuring 338 ultra-rare gemstones.

The watch is 18K white gold, 47mm x 15.85mm and is worth N567 million (£630,000).

For the benefit of Ronaldo’s fans, Jacob & Co. is selling a range of timepieces with Ronaldo-inspired designs.

The company debuted two watches at the end of the previous year: the rose gold Flight of CR7 and the stainless-steel Heart of CR7. 

Each watch is only available in 99 pieces and comes in two versions, one with diamonds and the other without; the prices range from N25 million($34,988) to N134 million ($181,331).
