Neeraj Chopra’s ₹52 Lakh Watch Takes Center Stage On Social Media After Paris Olympics
Star javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra, who won silver at the Paris Olympics, was seen wearing a watch reportedly worth over ₹50 lakh during the exciting final event last week. The 26-year-old from Haryana, who entered the Olympics as the defending champion, finished second, with Pakistan's Arshad Nadeem taking the gold.
A Reddit forum dedicated to watches recently noticed Chopra's watch and started speculating about its exact model and price. Social media has been buzzing with guesses about the watch's value. On Reddit, watch fans began to think it might be an OMEGA Seamaster AquaTerra 150M.
The OMEGA Seamaster AquaTerra 150M features a 41-mm titanium case with a telescopic crown and scratch-resistant sapphire crystals. It features a grey dial with AquaTerra stripes and a Seamaster logo, red details on the second hand, and the OMEGA 8928 Ti movement powers it. The watch has a black strap, shows hours, minutes, and seconds, is water-resistant up to 15 bars, and has a 72-hour power reserve.
