Soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo has a penchant for extraordinary watches, usually reaching for gem-studded pieces and exclusive editions. CR7 also has several unique timepieces in his collection that were produced specially for him.

CR7: Soccer Star and Watch Fan

Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the biggest names in the sporting world. He's been crowned World Player of the Year and awarded the Ballon d'Or multiple times. Ronaldo has played as a forward for soccer clubs in England, Spain, and Italy, and captained the Portuguese national team, helping them win European Football Championship and Nations League titles.

Off the pitch, Ronaldo is also a seasoned luxury watch collector, which his 500+ million social media followers have seen time and time again. CR7, as he's better known among fans, has great taste in watches and doesn't often shop off the rack. His collection is home to so many exceptional timepieces, special editions, and one-of-a-kind models. Though Ronaldo definitely has a type: Most of his watches have stately dimensions and tend to be "iced out," i.e., dripping in diamonds and other gemstones.

What watches does Cristiano Ronaldo have?

Cristiano Ronaldo's watch collection is extensive, but he does have an affinity for timepieces from Jacob & Co.. The New York luxury watch manufacturer has created many signature models for the star, including Epic X Flight of CR7 and the Epic X Heart of CR7. Ronaldo also owns an Epic SF24 Tourbillon with a split-flap display, a Caviar Flying Tourbillon "Tsavorites", and various diamond-studded versions of the Five Time Zone.

The most impressive Jacob & Co. in his collection is undoubtedly the Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon CR7 Edition. This watch and its movement were designed to resemble the engine in Ronaldo's real-life Bugatti Chiron, and even replicated the 16-cylinder mechanism. That's not all, the case and movement of the CR7 Edition are decorated with 232 diamonds and 109 black sapphires, weighing a total of 21 carats. The price is just as highbrow as the watch itself, at 1 million USD. If you can do without diamonds, you can buy the Jacob & Co. Bugatti Chiron for around 350,000 USD on Chrono24.

Franck Muller and Hublot

Ronaldo is also fond of watches from Franck Muller and Hublot. Hublot holds a particularly luxurious spot in CR7's collection, with the Hublot Masterpiece MP-09 Tourbillon Bi-Axis in King Gold. The watch has a tourbillon that rotates on two axes and a five-day power reserve thanks to its several barrels. Unlike the normal version, Ronaldo's variant is entirely embellished with baguette-cut diamonds and demands approximately 880,000 USD. You can buy the standard version in black carbon on Chrono24 for roughly 145,000 USD.

Franck Muller is also a staple in the soccer star's selection. Ronaldo owns a diamond-studded Vanguard Chronograph, an iced-out Cintrée Curvex Tourbillon, as well as an Invisible Baguette Diamonds Imperial Tourbillon. The case, dial, and bracelet of the latter model are – you guessed it – adorned with precious gems. The price of this rare tourbillon watch is about 1.5 million USD. The Vanguard Chronograph costs significantly less: The stainless steel version without diamonds can be found for under 9,000 USD. The CR7 version comes in closer to 55,000 USD.

Rolex

No good watch collection is complete without a Rolex, and Ronaldo agrees. He's been spotted with an array of Daytona and GMT-Master II models, but the GMT-Master II "Ice" definitely draws the most attention. This model comes under the ref. 116769TBR and sports diamonds totaling 30 carats. At 800,000 USD, this is the most expensive Rolex GMT-Master of all time. For comparison, the current version of the stainless steel GMT-Master II with the traditional Pepsi bezel costs "only" around 22,000 USD.

Coming in a close second is the Franck Muller Cintrée Curvex Tourbillon and the Imperial Tourbillon Invisible-Set Baguette Diamonds at about 1.5 million to 1.6 million USD apiece. His Jacob & Co. Grand Baguette from the Ghost collection also breaks the 1 million USD mark.
