Khaberni - The match between Manchester City and Arsenal for the Carabao Cup title witnessed Pep Guardiola emerging victorious with two clean goals over Mikel Arteta, while there was another aspect of the match that many did not notice, which was the competition in terms of elegance, specifically in terms of the watches the coaches wore.
The website British GQ said that Arteta, who is known to always rely on one watch, appeared wearing a Rolex GMT-Master II made of steel with a classic black bezel, valued in the global markets at approximately sixteen thousand to twenty-two thousand dollars (which equals about sixty-six thousand to ninety thousand United Arab Emirates dirhams).
It added: "This practical watch provides the function of global timing which helps him keep track of time during his European travels for Champions League matches, and is a modest choice that reflects a consistent and clear style."
On the other side, Guardiola showed striking diversity in his choices on the wrist, opting for an IWC Schaffhausen Portugieser Perpetual Calendar made of yellow gold, valued in the markets at between eighty thousand to one hundred and ten thousand dollars approximately (which equals about three hundred thousand to four hundred thousand United Arab Emirates dirhams).
He continued: "This watch offers a permanent calendar that includes the day, month, and year along with a moon phase indicator, which suits the personality of a coach who looks far ahead and plans according to a long-term perspective."
He went on: "This formal watch harmonizes with his collection of other exquisite watches, including the A. Lange & Söhne Datograph Perpetual 410.038 valued at approximately one hundred thousand dollars (about three hundred and seventy thousand United Arab Emirates dirhams), and his luxury watches from Richard Mille, notably the Richard Mille RM 61-01 valued at around two hundred thousand dollars (about seven hundred and fifty thousand United Arab Emirates dirhams), and the Richard Mille RM 010 Manchester City Automatic specially designed for him with the club colors, which may exceed a value of two hundred thousand dollars depending on the special editions."
