Reply With QuoteI notice them. Think Jack Lisowski had a Patek on. Bingham wears a nice Datejust, one Thai player I forgot the name had a Rollie possibly a sub.
Yeah I’m always noticing.
Some beautiful watches on display.

David Gilbert is a Rolex wearer, he has a DJ41, Daytona, OP and was wearing a Milgauss this year.
Ronnie O’Sullivan wore a JLC Reverso for many years but seems to have swapped to an IWC tribute to mkxi.
Anthony McGill is wearing a cheap Casio.nice to see such a diverse selection.
I’ve seen Ronnie wearing a what looks like a cheap Casio too over the last year or so, although not during the current World Championship. Maybe something to do with his daily running regime?Originally Posted by Redwolf
As an aside, with such a micro precision game, I'm guessing the contrast between wearing a 40 gram Casio and a 220 gram auto may actually affect your judgement/stability/balance.
I regularly play snooker and am too bad for such things to make a difference but I notice when I play darts, if I wear a bracelet on my right hand, it affects my throw.

Shouldn’t be an issue for right handed players wearing on the left wrist as that is planted to the table. Wearing a Fitbit or similar on the other wrist may do though
True. I'd imagine the only issue would be avoiding chunky bracelets that could make the bridge hand less stable.

The young guns are rocking some nice watches.
Judd Trump sporting a Royal Oak and Jack Lisowski looks to be wearing a Patek Philippe Aquanaut.
All nice until certain criminal entities find out where you live or what appointments you have, as sad as that sounds wearing £50k/£80k on your wrist and going on national TV may not be the wisest move..
No offence but it’s a bit surprising when the world no.14 snooker player is wearing a Patek sports model. You’d never have seen Doug Mountjoy doing that.
When his career earnings are well over a million quid it's really not that surprising.
A million quid for sure but that is over a 15 year career. Averaged out that becomes accountant salary! Snooker is a lot of work for a very uncertain reward. He's a fine looking lad though so I assume he gets sponsorship / commercial work on top. But his really is an expensive watch compared to many of the other players.

But isn't prize money only part of it? I suspect he's worth about £5m when everything else is taken into account.
Doug probably had an Omega or Rotary (when they were good)

"Lies, damned lies, & statistics".
Just take the last 5 years into account & that more than justifies him being able to buy a nice watch...or two!
Jack Lisowski was wearing an oysterflex WG Daytona during the first mini break when he demoed a shot.
He gets very good pay away the table also, just this week he is working for the BBC and is well paid for that i would have thought
Saw that. Was trying to figure out if it was the standard or meteorite dial.
