Cristiano Ronaldo gifted £630,000 one-of-a-kind Saudi-inspired Jacob & Co watch featuring 338 ultra-rare gemstones


CRISTIANO RONALDO has been gifted a one-off £630,000 Jacob & Co watch to celebrate his move to Saudi Arabia.

The 37-year-old completed his switch to Al-Nassr last month before being officially unveiled in early January.

He’s earning a staggering £173MILLION per year in the Middle East.

And Ronaldo’s new portable timepiece pays tribute to his new country.

That’s because the watch is green, the same colour as on the Saudi flag, and a representation of Islam.

Ronaldo works with Jacob and Co and they have created a one-of-a-kind piece for him, featuring 338 ultra-rare gemstones.

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

Ronaldo has already been seen rocking the incredible watch on his Instagram page following his arrival in Saudi Arabia.

And he’ll be hoping it will bring him some luck on the pitch.

Especially after his Al-Nassr debut didn’t exactly go to plan.

His side claimed a 1-0 victory to remain top of the Saudi Pro League, but Ronaldo failed to score and mustered just one shot on target.

He did score twice in the 5-4 friendly defeat to PSG last week, but he was playing for a Riyadh All-Star XI in an unofficial game.

While his next chance to get off the mark for Al-Nassr will be in the Saudi Super Cup semi-finals against Al-Ittihad tonight.
