After 21 years, Lionel Messi has turned his back on his club FC Barcelona. His sensational move to Paris Saint-Germain has drawn a lot of attention - especially since he was seen in Paris four days after the contract was announced. A photo shows the football legend on the balcony of a hotel. Watch lovers will immediately notice one thing: an exclusive Rolex Yacht-Master in 18k Everose gold sparkles on her wrist.
The details of the Rolex Yacht-Master
The Rolex Yacht-Master was already appreciated by Diego Maradona. The 40-millimeter case of this elegant black and 18-karat rose gold version contains the brand's automatic caliber 3235, with a 72-hour power reserve and automatic winding mechanism. The Oyster flex bracelet of the model presented in 2015 is also special because it was the first time that rubber was used. The advantages are obvious, as the material is much more robust and resistant. This, together with the bidirectional rotating bezel with 60-minute graduation, gives the high-quality watch a more sporty touch.
The deep black dial bears the typical Rolex brand logo. At three o'clock there is a date display. It is protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. "The water resistance and robustness of this model make it the ideal watch for water sports enthusiasts and especially for sailing enthusiasts", Rolex underlined during the presentation of the watch.
On a historic day, Messi was seen wearing a @ROLEX Yacht Master in 18k rose gold. This piece is fitted on an Oyster flex bracelet (the first ever Rolex bracelet made of rubber).
