Or at least that was the case for the world renowned football sensation Cristiano Ronaldo.<\/p>\n<p>The watchmaker himself made a visit from his New York headquarters to Saudi Arabia to hand deliver a brand new timepiece to Ronaldo, who has been based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia for the last year, playing with Al Nassr football club.<\/p>\n<h2>Cristiano Ronaldo hand-delivered a $1.3 million watch<\/h2>\n<div style=\"width: 1000px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-43257-1\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1200\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/me\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2023\/11\/Cristiano-Ronaldo.mp4?_=1\" \/><\/video><\/div>\n<p>In a video posted by Jacob to his personal Instagram, Ronaldo is seen in a silk navy-blue Fendi two piece and the star player is hand-delivered the seven figured Twin Turbo Furious watch. A watch that embodies the mechanics and art of a racing sports car. On his wrist sits a diamond encrusted, hand-assembled timepiece that embodies the pinnacle of horology and design.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was in the neighbourhood, so I decided to personally deliver a $1.3 million watch for the one and only Cristiano,\u201d the Jacob &amp; Co CEO&#8217;s caption reads.<\/p>\n<p>Ronaldo&#8217;s long-term girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, was also present for the watch unveiling, looking fashionable as ever wearing an off the shoulder body con dress and a Mini Lady Dior bag.<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first meet for the respective industry leaders. Indeed Ronaldo has collaborated with the coveted watch brand, releasing a line of intensely intricate and monumental timepieces. Titled Jacob &amp; Co X CR7, they have built a long standing friendship of admiration and partnership.<\/p>\n<p>Cosigned by Hip-Hop moguls like Jay Z and 50 Cent, Jacob Arabo has spearheaded a disruptive watch brand. Known for standing firm in luxury, Jacob &amp; Co. was founded in 1986. It has garnered a grand reputation for its extravagantly luxurious and ostentatious jewellery and timepieces. Usually dripping in jewels and diamonds, the brand creates watches that radiate lavish opulence.<\/p>\n<h3>Cristiano &amp; Georgina in Saudi Arabia<\/h3>\n<p>Jacob&#8217;s visit to Ronaldo&#8217;s new home of Saudi Arabia comes nearly one year after he, Georgina and their family relocated to the Kingdom.<\/p>\n<p>The t<a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/me\/articles\/georgina-rodriguez-cheers-ronaldo-saudi-football-match\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wo moved to Riyadh<\/a>, in pursuit of the professional footballer&#8217;s next steps within his career. And seem to continue building a life of family and sport in the glistening Kingdom.<\/p>\n<p>Ronaldo and the <em>I Am Georgina<\/em> star relocated to Saudi Arabia at the beginning of this year after the 38-year-old footballer signed with Riyadh-based club Al Nassr for a reported $200 million.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">History in the making.
