The watch holds a simple yet elegant look in the brand’s ‘Oystersteel’ color. It comes along with black bezels. Jannik Sinner seems to have gone with a more subtle color scheme, given that some of the other color combinations in the range include black and gold bezels, as well as a blue dial with gold bezels.
As with Rolex watches, this one does not come cheap either. The Submariner Dateline 126610LN, the one Sinner is seen wearing, retails from authorized dealers at $10,500. Although technical details impress, the watch, similar to the tennis world, leads to a new heading.
