Hardik Pandya, a versatile Mumbai (MI) Indian, has denied allegations that customs officials seized his obscenely expensive watches at Mumbai airport on Tuesday. In the freshly ended ICC World T20 2021, the stylish Indian cricketer had an unforgettable outing with Virat Kohli’s India team. Hardik Pandya, one of the Pandya brothers, was also dropped from India’s white ball selection for the T20I series against New Zealand.
According to the Mumbai Customs Department, the cricketer ace’s two wristwatches (worth Rs 5 crores) were detained upon his return from Dubai after India’s early departure from the T20 World Cup. Pandya, who is known for flaunting his lavish lifestyle on social media, is one of the hottest cricketers on and off the pitch.
Hardik Pandya, a devoted father to his son Agastya, is also a family man who enjoys spending quality time with his family members. Pandya’s passion for high end watches is well known. Let’s take a look at some of the stylish watches worn by Mumbai Indians and Team India superstar Hardik Pandya, as he is no stranger to wearing some of the most high-end watches.
1. Patek Philippe Nautilus Platinum
Pandya, a versatile player, is undoubtedly one of the highest paid cricketers in India. Pandya’s watch collection is worth around INR 11 crore, according to a report by GQ India. Pandya launched its Patek Philippe Nautilus Platinum 5711 on August 13, a watch that could cost you INR 5 lakh or more. Patek Philippe watches were also worn by Pandya’s colleague and Indian captain Virat Kohli.
2. Rolex Oyster Perpetual Daytona Cosmograph
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) awarded Hardik the Grade A contract in April. The annual retainer for Indian players in the Grade A category is INR 5 crore. Hardik has returned to the national team after successful surgery, and the all-around star has also had a fantastic tour of Australia. Pandya shared some pictures after taking on the “Head Duties in the Pandya Family” in June 2020. Pandya was reportedly seen wearing a Rolex Oyster Perpetual Daytona Cosmograph, which costs around one crore of rupees.
3. Patek Philippe Nautilus 5712R
The Nautilus 5712R is another Patek Philippe from Pandya’s watch collection, with a bespoke addition worth around INR 1.65 crore. In October last year, Hardik revealed his expensive watch while posting a photo from one of his latest photo shoots. One of Pandya’s Patek Philippe watches has an eight-year waiting list, according to Zomato’s Rahul Ganjoo.
