LEWIS HAMILTON has been handed a new luxury watch at Ferrari worth a whopping £375,000 – 30 times more than the timepiece of former Mercedes team-mate George Russell.
Hamilton stepped out with Formula One pals at the O2 Arena for the launch of their 2025 liveries.
The seven-time world champion dazzled fans as he wore the famous red of Ferrari for the first time.
But there was an even bigger sight to behold on Hamilton’s wrist.
While talking on the microphone, a large glittering watch was clearly visible.
And it turned out to be an amazing timepiece from watchmaker Richard Mille.

His watch is worth a tasty £10,000.
But that’s still a long way off Hamilton’s exotic number.
Speaking at the event, the F1 legend admitted he could not wait to drive his first race for Ferrari.
And Hamilton revealed his new car is totally different to the ones he’s been driving for Merc.
Hamilton said: “It’s nothing like the car that I had before, or the last 10, 12, 17 years.
“It’s unique in its own. And to feel the vibration of the Ferrari engine for the first time, wow!
“That’s what I think ultimately put the biggest smile on my face.”
