Fans are aware of soccer players’ love for expensive watches. USMNT star Christian Pulisic is no exception to that. He recently donned an extremely rare watch during the Qatar FIFA World Cup. He is not only a soccer player with a rare watch on his hands in the tournament.

Pulisic scored a winner against Iran to take USMNT through to the knockout stage. They will face the Netherlands today in the round of 16. The winner of the match will play either Argentina or Australia in the quarter-finals. Pulisic will again look to inspire the team with goals and assist on the field against the dutch team.

Christian Pulisic wears rare Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/111p

Christian Pulisic, famously known as Captain America, recently was seen wearing an extremely rare Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/111p in platinum with a white dial and blue sapphire set bezel. The bezel has 32 baguette-ut sapphires as hour-markers, and the dial has 12 baguette-cut sapphires as hour markers.

The market price of this rare watch is $700,000, and they discontinue the piece from production. They made it for very few important customers. Patek Philippe is making watches for around 180 years now. The company makes a limited number of watches for specific models. As a result of this, the watches are extremely expensive.

The players seen during the World Cup with watches from Patek Philippe include Argentine superstar Lionel Messi (Patek Philippe Nautilus Perpetual Calendar 5740 with a market price of around $250,000), polish captain Robert Lewandowski (Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time 5164R with current market price $120,000), and Croatian captain Luka Modric (Patek Philippe Nautilus 5726/1A with market price $160,000) amongst others. Comparing the market price of these watches to that of Pulisic shows how rare his model is.
