Thread: Rafa's Watch

    Rafa's Watch

    I was watching the Wimbeldon final yesterday and noticed Nadal appears to be sporting
    a nice matt black on rubber.

    I think it could be a Franck Muller or Hublot but I would be interested to know if someone is certain????

    Rafael Nadal said “It is an honour for me that someone like Richard has chosen me as one of his ambassadors. I know that he has worked very hard to be able to create this very special watch. I am honoured and I am sure it will be a special and successful partnership.”

    Think about the amount of impact that piece has gone through after 90 minutes on court :shock:

    A lot of money for an ugly and unreadable watch. Still, if he wants me to be his ambassador, I'm sure I can get my people to speak to his people.

    Tennis trivia: He's actually right handed but plays tennis left handed.

    Believe it or not, he used to have a double handed forehand and backhand!!!

    It may be a wonderful piece of watch design and worth every penny but I think it looks like crap.

    I think it looks fantastic. I am sure it looks better on my wrist than his...

    I'm all for pushing the boundaries or watch design but FFS you have to still be able to read the time. That's useless. :banghead:

    I would have guessed Hublot as most of those things are big enough to double as a racket! :lol:

    I agree with Optimum - looks like its giving 3 times !!!

    I wouldn't buy one, not that it is likely to be an option so I don't suppose Richard Mille will be losing any sleep ! :wink:
