Cristiano Ronaldo has recently been in the news for several reasons. The Portuguese soccer veteran is reportedly unhappy with his time at Al-Nassr. While he seemingly intends on returning back from Saudi Arabia, the soccer veteran sported quite an attractive piece of art recently. In recent times, Ronaldo has been proudly showing off his new partnership with a leading watch brand.
This partnership was unveiled after he seemingly parted ways with a $20 million-worth contract that he has signed with another company back in 2014.
It is safe to say that this recent collection of watches has raised quite a few eyebrows on social media.

Which premium watch did Cristiano Ronaldo recently wear?
Just hours ago, Ronaldo posted an Instagram story flaunting a watch from his new collection. In recent times, he has been wearing watches from Jacob and Co. The premium brand just had its biggest store opening in Saudi Arabia. For this collaboration, the brand was generous enough to design a few personalized models for the soccer veteran.
Cristiano Ronaldo was awarded a £630,000 watch after joining Al-Nassr. The unique Saudi-themed Jacob and Co watch is dark green to represent the country's flag. It has 338 extremely rare gemstones embedded in it and is 18 carat white gold, with an alligator-green leather strap. pic.twitter.com/L3Sni4EgWr

As part of the collaboration, the company recently launched the ‘rose gold Flight of CR7’ and ‘stainless steel Heart of CR7’. Either of these models has two variants i.e., with or without diamonds. However, from his recent story, he wasn’t wearing any of these on his wrist. The Portuguese soccer veteran had sported the ‘Brilliant Flying Tourbillon watch’.
His blue sapphire-colored model is worth $700,000. The makers have covered the front and back of this ‘work of art’ with anti-reflective sapphire crystals. The former Real Madrid legend’s version of the watch features a blue alligator strap. Seemingly, Ronaldo’s deal with TAG Heuer has come to an end. In 2014, the soccer icon signed a lucrative $20 million deal with the brand, as per SP.
Amidst all his top-notch collaborations and business deals, Ronaldo might not even be in Saudi Arabia in the coming months.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez are reportedly quite unhappy with the Saudi Arabia stint. It also seems extremely difficult to win the league as Al-Nassr is three points behind Al-Ittihad with a couple of games left. Also, they aren’t a part of any of the domestic competitions anymore. Quite a few notable characters from the club’s management have resigned too.
However, the soccer icon has to still directly respond to all these speculations. Eyeing the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the Portuguese soccer legend would most likely look for a move back to Europe. Competing for the UEFA Champions League is something that he has done every season, unlike this one. The jury is still out there on his future at the Saudi-based soccer club.
