KL Rahul is a proper hypebeast, with his own line of streetwear. If there is a cricketer who has a good sense of fashion, and a great taste in luxury brands, it is KL Rahul.

Nowhere is this more evident than his watch collection. Turns out he’s actually quite the collector and has some pieces that horologists all over the world would go bananas over.

We take a look at 7 of the most exquisite ones that we have seen him wear over the years.

1. Rolex Day-Date 18k Rose Gold

Priced at Rs 27 Lakhs, this particular Rolex is not that popular among regular horologists but is a collectible among fans of the watchmaker. The main reason behind this is the rather unique colours of the watch - the face has a rather crimson hue, which is very uncommon among Rolexes. We can definitely see why KL Rahul would go for something like this.

2. Rolex Cosmograph Daytona

One of the most classic Rolexes out there the Cosmograph Daytona has many variations out there. This is the reason why the Daytona is also one of the most sought after Rolexes. The one that you see KL Rahul wearing here, retails for about Rs 27 Lakhs, but seriously, good luck finding one readily available in retail.

3. Panerai Radiomir 1940

At Rs 5.45 Lakhs, the Radiomir 1940 is one of the cheapest watches in his collection. That being said, it is a classic timepiece. In fact, this is the timepiece that put Panerai on the map.

4. Hublot Classic Fusion Ceramic King Gold

In terms of aesthetics, the Classic Fusion Ceramic King Gold might not share a lot with other Hublots. However, in terms of boisterousness and material science, it is as Hublot-esque as any watch could be. Priced at Rs 7 Lakhs, this is one of the cheaper watches that KL Rahul has.

5. Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Stainless Steel

Priced at Rs 19 Lakhs, the stainless steel version of the AP Royal Oak set the aesthetics that the watchmaker would follow for almost all of its watches. It truly is a classic piece if you’re a fan of the brand. The Patek Philippe Nautilus, shares its designer with this piece, which adds to the legacy of this particular AP.

6. Rolex Datejust Oyster Yellow Gold

Another Rolex that KL Rahul is quite fond of, is the Datejust Oyster 31mm in Yellow Gold. Instead of going for a regular strap for this one, he went the Presidential bracelet strap for the watch. The Datejust Oyster in this particular configuration is worth just shy of Rs 21 Lakhs.

7. Patek Philippe Nautilus 57121/A

Finally, the piece that every watch enthusiast and horologist is trying to get their hands on right now, the Nautilus 57121/A. Although this particular Patek Philippe isn’t exactly cheap, at Rs 37.50 Lakhs it is much more affordable than some of the other pieces that we have seen from the watchmaker.
