The 24-year-old Italian just won another Grand Slam title, with a particularly flashy Rolex in tow.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Wimbledon<\/div>\n

In what started as a tumultuous match for Jannik Sinner, the 24-year-old Italian tennis player walked off Wimbledon\u2019s grass courts with the Gentleman\u2019s Singles trophy in tow. The odds weren\u2019t in his favor when Sinner lost the first set in a tiebreak against his opponent, Alexander Zverev, but he quickly made a comeback in the second.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This marks Sinner\u2019s second consecutive Wimbledon triumph at SW19, following his victory over Carlos Alcaraz on the same grounds the previous summer. And while his competitive serves had fans glued to the match, there was another detail that captured attention once the competition ended: the watch resting on his wrist during the trophy ceremony.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Sinner lifted the trophy wearing a Rolex Cosmograph Daytona, the 40mm Everose gold model with the \u201cSundust\u201d dial (ref. 126515LN), which retails at \u00a337,450 (approx. $50,163). Fittingly, it was the same watch he wore when he won the championship in 2025 \u2013 making the Daytona something of a personal victory companion for the young tennis player.<\/p>\n

Sinner wearing a Rolex is hardly surprising, considering he was appointed one of their ambassadors in 2020, joining a prestigious group of athletes and cultural figures associated with the Swiss watchmaker. But this particular model is special \u2013 in ways other than being the timepiece of choice of a Grand Slam champion. The champagne-pink dial is made with intricate brush techniques, and shifts from a warm rose to a metallic blush when the sun hits it.<\/p>\n

The timepiece was originally exclusive to the Datejust line, but has since found a new home in the Daytona collection. It\u2019s fitted with Rolex\u2019s in-house calibre 4131, with a 72-hour power reserve and a monobloc Cerachrom bezel. A prime watch for withstanding a gruelling 3 hour and 46 minute match, if you will.<\/p>\n

While inherently a sports watch, this particular Daytona leans more towards a fashion statement. Its appearance coincides with another notable style moment from Naomi Osaka<\/a>, as she walked onto the courts for her first match in a kimono-inspired ensemble from Tokyo-based designer Hana Jagi.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As well as his horological endorsements, Sinner is also an ambassador for Gucci, where he continues to serve Italian flair off the courts. Whether future Grand Slam victories bring even rarer or more unexpected timepieces remains to be seen \u2013 but for now, his Everose gold Rolex Daytona has already earned its place as part of Wimbledon history.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
