Nadal to wear $525,000 watch during matches.

Postby Mike Rotchtickles » Tue, 06 Apr 2010 07:31

Rafael Nadal has signed a deal with Richard Mille watches that will see him wear a $525,000 watch during matches.

Nadal will wear the company's new 20 gram 'RM 027 Tourbillon' watch, described as one of the lightest watches ever produced.

The RM 027 Tourbillon will be produced in a limited edition of 50 pieces with an ultra light strap in polycarbonate.

He should have no excuses with keeping track of time now.
This should go a long way to eliminate his ridiculous time-wasting, no? :P

BTW, if anybody was wondering, the time on that thing in the picture is probably at 7:53. :lol:

i tryed in past also tennis with a watch . it nerves .
it feels bad with a watch to play tennis ,
but maybe only because it was no 500 000 dollar watch :lol:

also i can´t understand S .Williams when she played allways with her big fat gold necklas -that permanently bouncing would nerve me .

maybe she wear this neckles to deflect her big titts and her thick fat ass .who knows !??

I always play with my Explorer II on.

No problem really....but then again I have a single handed BH. Not sure if it makes a difference with double handed.
Level 13 Edberg and counting...

Never underestimate the pain of a person, because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are just better at hiding it than others.

Yeah I would definitely wear it for the kind of money they're giving Nadal, no matter how rich I am. Also, it's the lightests 'sports watch' (kind of a stupid term if you ask me but whatever) ever made, so it's probably like wearing nothing.

I wear mt Casio MT-G for almost everything (yes even sex) and I love it , it is heavy but like someone else mentioned I'm a single handed backhand so it doesn't bother me that much , altough I could see wearing it on a hitting hand to be a pain in the arse.

Hey ! it's a G-shock so it can take some rough ridding ! Even with the big girls !

Edit:and it has a chronograph so she can't say it was too quick ! or if you want to beat some speed records too ! well you get my drift :)
