Cristiano Ronaldo splurges on a $100k custom-made diamond watch for Georgina Rodriguez's birthday

Last Saturday, Georgina marked her 30th birthday and made sure it did not go unnoticed. Cristiano commemorated this significant day appropriately by surprising her with a special gift. In the world of celebrities and influencers, the most appreciated gifts are typically those that can be shown off on social media, subtly tagging their beloved in the post. Rodriguez did precisely that.

She displayed a photo of a luxurious watch on her Instagram story, custom-made by New York-based firm Jacob & Co. The selection is not surprising as Ronaldo's favourite brand, with whom he previously collaborated. The diamond-encrusted piece with a pink band visibly delighted Georgina, who publicly expressed gratitude for her "modest" gift.

Thank you, darling, she penned, proudly showing off the gift in its full splendor.

With such a watch, she'll never again have to worry about losing track of time, but one might wonder how much it truly set Ronaldo back. Estimates by the Twitter profile 'Football Tweet' suggest that the player could have forked out as much as 100 thousand dollars, approximately 400 thousand Zloty, for the elegant accessory. It resonates well as accompaniment for daily errands or a casual stroll in the park.

However, internet users haven't precisely been gushing with praise for Georgina's pricy acquisition, with comments suggesting it "resembles something you could buy in a discount store". But does it matter? The key point is people are aware of the item's actual value. The rest doesn't particularly matter.

Would you be interested in owning one for yourself?
