This extraordinary timepiece features a 40mm 18-carat white gold case adorned with 54 brilliant-cut diamonds, complemented by a bezel set with 36 baguette-cut blue sapphires. The dial is crafted from silver obsidian, subtly shifting colour under changing light, and is completed with an 18-carat white gold Oyster bracelet, enhancing its opulent finish.

How much the watch cost

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Sapphire is a showstopper, with an estimated value of ₹13,51,26,825 (over $15 million). According to the Instagram page Insanely Luxurious Indians, only a handful of these watches exist globally, making it a museum-grade collectable. Its extreme rarity has earned it the nickname the “ghost” watch, as it has never appeared in any public Rolex catalogue.

However, this isn’t the first time Shah Rukh Khan has been seen wearing this ultra-luxury timepiece. He also sported the same Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Sapphire during New Year’s Eve celebrations in Dubai, part of the eight-day extravaganza hosted by EMAAR at Burj Park.
