The India vs Pakistan match in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 was always going to be a highly anticipated encounter, but few could have predicted that Hardik Pandya’s watch would steal the spotlight. The Indian all-rounder was spotted wearing a super expensive watch while playing in the match.
The watch, identified as the Richard Mille RM27-02 CA FQ Tourbillon Rafael Nadal Skeleton Dial edition, was visible on Pandya’s wrist as he celebrated the dismissal of Pakistani opener Babar Azam. Pandya’s unique “bye-bye” send-off to Azam also made waves on social media.
Pandya’s love of luxury watches is well-documented, and he’s often spotted wearing high-end brands on and off the field. However, this particular watch seems to have taken his collection to a whole new level.
The India vs Pakistan match is always a highly charged encounter, and the addition of Pandya’s luxury watch only added to the drama. As the tournament progresses, fans will be keeping a close eye on Pandya’s performances, both on and off the field.
