Portuguese football star Cristiano Ronaldo came up with an exclusive collection in a partnership with a renowned watch brand Jacob & Co. It turned out to be a next step in a two-decade partnership between Ronaldo and Jacob Arabo, Founder of Jacob and Co. The partnership began when Ronaldo was a young player, and now it has become a collaboration between two big names in sports and watchmaking industries.
Cristiano Ronaldo shared a post on social media where he announced his new collection of watches, which includes his iconic moments on the football field. The Al-Nassr forward received a unique piece by Jacob Arabo himself, which started the new collaboration between the star footballer and a famous watch brand. Arabo gifted Ronaldo a Twin Turbo Furious Baguette model which has a value of around $1.3 million.
The new watch collection names Jacob & Co x CR7 Epic X was designed to reflect Cristiano Ronaldo’s personality and brand. It comes with two models: ‘Flight of CR7’ and ‘Heart of CR7’, which includes a 44mm case and unique details to honor the Portuguese football star. Ronaldo took to social media to announce his collaboration with Jacob & Co donning new watches by the brand. The new watch design also includes very fine touches such as barrel cover shaped like a football and Ronaldo’s image.
“I’ve always dreamed of having my own watch collection. The @jacobandco Flight of CR7 & the Heart of CR7 takes inspiration from some of my most iconic moments on the field. I hope you like them as much as I do,” Ronaldo wrote on social media announcing collaboration with Jacob & Co.
