On the off-chance you're not a sports fan, LeBron James announced last night, in a preposterously self-centered, 1-hour special on ESPN, that he would indeed be leaving the Cleveland Cavaliers and in fact be joining his homies Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade in Miami. Do we, as horologically centered New Yorkers, really care? Not really. If he had come to the Knicks or the Nets, sure, we'd welcome him, but he didn't, so this post is all about BronBron's wristwear choice.
The guy did choose a pretty great watch to don during such an announcement. LeBron was wearing an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Volcano, a limited watch that retails for about $21,000.
We wonder if maybe his buddy Jay-Z has anything to do with his love for AP. After all, the Jigga man has his own watch with Audemars and even donated an AP Tourbillon to charity, which ended up selling to this guy for about $220,000.
So, love him or hate him, respect or despise his decision, you have to give the guy his dues for at least wearing a nice watch.
LeBron James, one of the top stars in today’s NBA, has just recently annouced that he would be playing with Miami Heat next year. It is definitely the most blockbuster free agent deal in the summer of 2010. During the nationally televised press conference, aka King James was wearing an beautiful wristwatch – the Royal Oak Offshore Volcano Limited Edition.
I am not sure why the watch can be found on LeBron’s wrist. Perhaps he is just among many professional athletes who prefer Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore timepieces. Maybe the orange trim is his favorite touch about the watch, as it is the commen color of basketballs. The AP Limited Edition is 42mm wide in steel, featuring a black and orange colored dial, mounted on a matching black with orange stitching crocodile strap. The heart of the watch is an in-house made automatic chronograph movement.
I should say I am a big fan of LeBron. He is the most dominent player in NBA after ShaQ’s age.With his decision to go to Miami, LeBron James, along with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, has composed the most powerful “Big Three” in Basketball history. They are young, strong, and all have a promising future, the biggest difference with other “Big Three or Four” in the association. However, this result has also aroused much controversy, as many people think LeBron James is young and should win the champion by himself. I believe the championship of 2010-2011 will put these to rest. No one can tell it is good or bad until June, 2011.
