This may come as a surprise for many of you but Virat Kohli clearly has one of the best collection of watches among cricketers. Time and again we have seen him wear some of the coolest and most sought after watches. © Instagram/virat.kohliSure, his taste and preferences may be remarkably different from someone like Hardik Pandya, who prioritises bling over everything else. With that being said, the watches that Virat goes for, are often appealing in their own right. © Instagram/virat.kohliOver the weekend, Virat showed off two of the coolest timepieces that he owns, and let us tell you straight off the bat, they truly are some of the hottest pieces that collectors and horologists all over the world would give an arm to own. © Instagram/virat.kohliThe first watch that we see, is a dope-looking Rolex Datejust in Silver, also called the Rolex Datejust Wimbledon edition. © Instagram/virat.kohliThe watch comes with a silver-toned steel case, with a similar-looking strap, and the classic Rolex’s fluted bezel in 18K white gold. © RolexWhat makes this Rolex different from the standard Datejust in Silver, are Roman numeral hour markers, which are coloured using a shade of green called the Wimbledon Green. It comes with Rolex’s signature steel strap and the Oyster clasp. © Millenary WatchesThe watch retails for about Rs 7.11 Lakhs. For that much money, you can easily pick up the top variant of the iPhone 11 about 12 times. However, good luck to you if you think that you can pick the watch up at that price. © Millenary WatchesBecause this is a Rolex, and they seem to have a very strong grip over who gets to buy those watches, finding a retail piece at that price is almost impossible. © Millenary WatchesThe next watch that he was seen wearing is the IWC Schaffhausen Pilot’s Chronograph or the Top Gun Edition. © IWCFor those who’re unaware of IWC, they are also known as the International Watch Company, a luxury watchmaker based out of Switzerland. They are known for making some of the best luxury watches, and massive technological advancements in watches. © IWCThe Pilot’s Chronograph is a watch that is readily available with most luxury watch retailers for Rs 5.88 Lakhs. For that much money, you can easily pick up an iPhone 11, about 10 times. © YouTube/OaktreeSportsAll in all, Virat surely has a massively impressive collection. Kudos to the man, seriously. We just wonder what all exotic timepieces will we see him wear in the days to come.
