₹10 Crore on a Watch? These Celebrities Went Too Far! 😲💸
Did you ever stare at your watch and say to yourself, Well, it is just a time piece, isn t it? To the majority of people, it is a tool. However, to some celebrities, it is a status symbol, an ice breaker and more often than not, a mind boggling instead of a runway expensive accessory.
You will not believe this but actually some of the biggest names in this world own watches that are more expensive that a flat in Mumbai or even an island in the Maldives! Yes, we are talking about a 10 crore and even higher priced watches.
Searching for the golden mean, let me propose to examine a little bit of the above examples of some celebrities who gave themselves over to the wrist game - and in doing so start a bit of a debate: Is it style, and a nice style, or are they pure show-offs?
🕰️ Floyd Mayweather – The 31 Million “Billionaire Watch”
We are making a big beginning. Such as, so large.
Floyd Mayweather, who is a boxing champion, possesses a watch that is ridiculously priced to the extent that its news was trending globally. It is known as The Billionaire Watch Jacob & Co and It comes in at a mind-blowing 140 crore in rupees!
It is crafted with 260 carats of emerald-cut diamonds so the whole thing resembles a bracelet more than a watch. And indeed he does wear it out in the streets. Not in a museum. it is not in some vault. On his wrist.
To be frank, I have lost my Titan watch of 3000 at a time in a train, and I was devastated. I could not find the words to lose this one. 😅
💎 Virat Kohli – Classy and Pricey
Home turf. The terrible style of our boy cricket king Virat Kohli is sharp and his decisions on luxury are known. One of his default works is? A Rolex Daytona Rainbow, that costs close to 2.3 crore.
It is glitz and glam, it is flamboyant and it is rare. Although it was not exactly 10 crores, it created a splash when the fans saw it during an Instagram live session. Others could not have the look enough, others considered it too much.
That is the problem with luxury, nobody can agree.
⌚Cristiano Ronaldo Time Is (Very) Expensive
Cristiano Ronaldo is a legend in football and he knows how to live the best things in life. One of his most talked of watches is the Franck Muller Tourbillon which comes at a price of 13 crore rupees.😳
Not only does it attract the attention because of price but also because of the invisible diamonds, the hand-made Swiss mechanism, and the fact that it is being made exclusively to fit him.
It is an admired success that fans appreciate, yet some wonder, Is it not an over-the-top success?
🛑 Where Do We Draw the Line?
Here is where the twist is. Although they are technically no more than accessories, these watches have a cultural significance. They reveal strength, affluence and elitism. It is also part of the brand of celebs.
However, in such a nation as India, where there are lakh people to who the basic facilities of life is still not very accessible, the concept of 10 crores spent on a watch, can sound… well, deaf.
A natural question comes to mind:
Is excess luxury?
🤑 Watches as Investment or Just Flaunting?
Others justify such purchases by stating that, it is an investment. And indeed, there are some rare ones, that go up in price as time goes by.
But here, reality, many celebrities do not purchase these reselling but rather on the red carpet, the paparazzi shots and Instagram flexes. 😎📸
And not to mention, most of them don not pay full price. The watches are frequently lent or given on gift basis by brands to celebrities to gain visibility. Thus, it is possible that the entire 10 crore label is clever advertising.
🤔 What Do Common People Think?
This is the fun bit: Someone wears a luxury watch, a celebrity, the internet then disintegrates with memes, as well as discourse, and hot takes.
- Others would have said, they deserve it. Let them have fun.”
- There are people who say that it is unnecessary. Instead assist people.
Honestly? Both parties have their points to be heard.
Being a person checking the time on the phone most of the day, I find such watches fascinating yet absurd at the same time. 😆
And what about you?
🎯 Conclusion: Is The Celebrification of People Too Much?
There is no doubt that these watches are beautiful. Exquisitely created, exotic and flashy. The prices, however? They are in a different universe. 🌌
Be it the 140 crore monster of Floyd, 13 crore masterpiece of Ronaldo or the colourful Rolex which Virat wears one thing is certified luxury has no boundary in the culture of celebrities.
yet it is just possible that all this admiring at a distance will not be too bad after all, and still we can say:
Bro s the price of a watch 10 crore? You have taken upon yourself this far.” 😂
💬 What Do You Think?
And would you ever want to buy a watch with that amount of money in case you become a millionaire? Or are you saying that such expend laws are simply crazy?
