Here's a look at some players and the kind of watches they pull off:
Virat Kohli – Traditional Power with Cartier
"King Kohli" – that name speaks volumes. Virat Kohli dominates on the field with fierce determination and remarkable ability for Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Off the pitch, he possesses a keen sense of fashion. It's only natural that he tends to select watches that both possess power and a traditional appearance.
Virat Kohli wears the Cartier Santos de Cartier — a timepiece known for its sleek lines and robust build, mirroring the precision and intensity of his game. Razor-sharp in design and effortlessly versatile, it's a perfect match for his image as a global icon.
MS Dhoni – Cool Under Pressure with OMEGA
"Captain Cool" – MS Dhoni is world-famous for staying cool while the heat's on and making smart, surprising choices. His fans always want to see his choices, either on the ground or on his wrist.
MS Dhoni wears the OMEGA Speedmaster, a watch celebrated for its legacy in space travel and its reputation for thriving under pressure—just like Dhoni himself. Known for adapting to the toughest match situations with calm precision, his choice of the Speedmaster reflects that same cool resilience. With its sporty yet timeless style, it complements his effortless, laid-back attitude both on and off the field.
Hardik Pandya – Flamboyant Style with Patek Philippe
Hardik Pandya brings immense power to the game through his batting and bowling. Off the field, he is renowned for his flamboyant dress sense and appreciation of flashy watches. He doesn't care to dress in something flashy!
Hardik Pandya rocks the Patek Philippe Nautilus, especially the bold special editions that match his boundary-pushing style. The Nautilus, a legendary icon in luxury sports watches, is a natural fit for someone who never shies away from making a statement. Just like Hardik, it’s daring, distinctive, and always ahead of the curve.
Rohit Sharma – Elegant Power with Hublot
Rohit Sharma's batting is a matter of timing and easy, powerful shots. Even when his team is in trouble, his talent speaks for itself. Off the field, he has a refined sense of watches, opting for pieces that embody modern luxury and bold style.
Rohit Sharma wears the Hublot Big Bang — a watch that fuses tradition with innovation, just like his game. Known for blending tough, modern materials into a bold design, the Big Bang mirrors Rohit’s mastery of classic technique infused with today’s power-hitting flair. It’s a statement piece for a player who leads with calm authority and explosive potential.
KL Rahul – Calm Sophistication with Panerai
KL Rahul bats calmly but has the potential to launch strong shots. He is gracious yet capable of hitting boundaries. His watch picks most often reflect this – designs that are commanding in presence yet possess a sense of classic styling.
KL Rahul sports a Panerai — whether it’s the Radiomir or Luminor — both known for their bold cushion-case designs and clean, legible dials. Panerai’s legacy of toughness and resilience perfectly echoes Rahul’s style of play: calm, composed, and ready to explode when the moment calls. It’s a watch that, like him, blends elegance with edge.
David Warner – Aggressive Game, Bold Hublot
David Warner possesses unrelenting energy and tests the bowlers from the very beginning. He plays with aggression and force. His timepiece approach largely is a true reflection of that strength and boldness.
David Warner wears the Hublot Big Bang in black ceramic — a timepiece that echoes his fierce presence on the pitch. With its tough, high-performance build and commanding design, the Big Bang perfectly matches Warner’s game, where controlled aggression meets confident flair. Even the name speaks his language: powerful, unapologetic, and made to stand out.
Shreyas Iyer – Fashionable Player, Positive Omega
Shreyas Iyer captains the Punjab Kings with a flair-batted approach and the capacity to adjust. He bats with style but can also change gears. He is famous for his physique and good attitude.
Shreyas Iyer wears the OMEGA Constellation — a watch that reflects his upbeat personality and sharp sense of style. Known for its elegant design and signature bezel claws, the Constellation is both refined and slightly unconventional, much like Iyer himself.
