Welcome to Clocks of the Week, where we will stick to the rarest, craziest and most coveted watches through celebrities.

Before our eyes, Anthony Davis takes the leap. It’s all well and good and smart to dominate in the normal season, yet the #RINGZ basketball culture demands that high-profile performances translate into playoff victories and eventually championships. As Lakers fans thankfully pointed out, embittered Pelicans fans used to complain that “when the lighting fixtures are at their brightest, that’s when AD isn’t up to the task. Array” AD has taken advantage of the chance again and again in the NBA bubble – play like a superstar. He also dresses like this. This all-black ceramic edition of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak with tourbillon is a rare edition of the iconic timepiece. Only a hundred pieces were made in total. Fame comes with closer scrutiny and it’s hard to see this Royal Oak killed very quickly without Davis tying him up and embracing the villain role that he has been tagged with since he first became involved. escaped from New Orleans. You have just embraced the dark, but AD and this watch were born in it, molded through it. Below, the old Royal Oaks, the ice cream Royal Oaks and a new version of the old Rolex Submariner.

In the void, it’s a watch, a remade icon in an intense black tone, but there’s also a great synergy between Davis’ all-black Royal Oak and what the Lakers wear on the field. During the Los Angeles race to the final, the team took a 3-0 record while wearing their Mamba edition shirts blackened in a similar way. This Kobe-like color means a lot to the team – Davis himself told ESPN reporter Rachel Nichols: “If we lose with one’s shirts, we just feel like we’re letting go.

Justin Bieber, posing as a fashionable remake of Grease, wears the former Audemars Piguet Royal Oak he bought himself as a wedding present last year. The watch is an early 80s edition of the now iconic watch. Not much has been replaced on the watch in recent decades, but attention should be paid to the main points that distinguish it. Instead of the stylized “Audemars Piguet” logo that looks like in the fashionable editions of the watch, Bieber’s edition of the brand’s call appears to be crushed on a typewriter. It’s a small change, but those are precisely the kind of main points that excite serious collectors.

Technically, this watch doesn’t date back to last week (Pirlo approached it in mid-September), but what time is it in 2020, anyway?Besides, we can’t miss the opportunity to delve into this watch. Juventus coach approached Geneva watchmakers with the challenge of redoing the Sub, his favorite model. The quest for it was arduous. ” It took more than two years of studies and progression and the top passionate craftsmen from all over Switzerland to make the modifications to the mythical 3130,” says the AdG website. The result is an absolutely wild skeletal edition of the Submariner, which combines the fine watchmaking of the changed dials with the spirit most oriented to the submarine’s duty.

While modeling his new men’s underwear collection with Rihanna’s Fenty X Savage underwear line, Christian Combs sported what could be the coldest Royal Oak on the planet. Tailor-made with jeweler Alex Moss, the watch features more than 28 carats of diamonds in total: a quick count sample, there are 32 large diamonds on the bezel alone. And although the Royal Oak already has a unique bracelet, Combs threw it to the road look and replaced it with this Cuban link bracelet. Combs is used to doing things the same way he wants, whether it’s underwear made in partnership with Rihanna or a restructuring of what is already one of the planet’s top mythical watches.

Some watches have become legends over time: Cartier’s Tank, for example, is even more impressive now because, a hundred years later, it remains a favorite among the creditors of wealthy and outstanding watches, as well as among regulars. On the other hand, it’s what we call an instant classic. Although it looks like a clock soaked in the rich eyes of the old world, it didn’t show up until 2007. And with no help from a century of fans, the Blue Globe has slowly become a bestseller. The watch is natural Cartier: a rare design, Roman numerals and the smell of valuable jewelry. Bad Bunny’s doing fine.
