Pandya's luxury wristwatch steals the show during Pak-India clash

The fifth match of the Champions Trophy 2025 between India and Pakistan was scrutinized for every minute detail, including Hardik Pandya’s exceptional bowling that turned the game on its head.

However, apart from his match-winning performance, another aspect that grabbed everyone’s attention was the luxurious timepiece on his wrist.

Pakistan won the toss and opted to field first, inviting India to bat. Hardik Pandya played a crucial role in shifting the momentum by dismissing Babar Azam and setting the tone for the match.

After taking Babar Azam’s wicket, eagle-eyed fans and media noticed a stunning watch on Pandya’s wrist—a Richard Mille RM 27-02. This limited-edition and rare timepiece is worth a staggering $800,000 (approximately 22 crore Pakistani rupees).

Available on the online platform Gem Nation, the watch is famous for its advanced engineering and superior craftsmanship, making it a collector’s dream.

The Richard Mille RM 27-02 boasts several impressive features, including Grade 5 titanium bridges, a skeletonized design, and a 70-hour power reserve. Its quartz TPT case gives it a unique black-and-white appearance, making it both a fashion statement and a technical marvel.

Originally designed for tennis legend Rafael Nadal, the watch features carbon and quartz fibre construction, an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, and shock resistance, making it one of the most durable timepieces in the world.

Hardik Pandya’s love for high-end watches is an open secret. His collection includes some of the rarest and most expensive timepieces in the world, establishing him as a true connoisseur of luxury watches.
