Introduction to Antony Santos
Antony Santos is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a right winger for Manchester United and the Brazilian national team. Born in São Paulo in 2000, Santos came through the ranks at São Paulo FC before making his move to Ajax in 2020, where he developed into one of Europe's most watched attacking players. His performances in the Eredivisie earned him a high-profile transfer to Manchester United in the summer of 2022 — one of the most expensive deals in the club's history — and he marked his debut at Old Trafford with a goal, immediately cementing his place in the spotlight both on and off the pitch.
The Antony Santos watch collection, as documented through press photographs and public appearances, currently features at least one confirmed Rolex sighting. Santos has been photographed wearing a Rolex Day-Date 36 in 18K yellow gold, reference 118238, fitted with a black dial and factory-set diamonds. What makes this particular example stand out is the specification: baguette-cut stones at the 6 and 9 o'clock positions, a detail that distinguishes it from the far more commonly seen round brilliant-cut diamond variants. The Day-Date 36, worn in solid precious metal and never in steel, has long been associated with high-profile public figures, and Santos' choice of the yellow gold execution with a dressed-up diamond dial fits squarely within the Premier League's well-documented taste for bold Rolex configurations.
For a footballer of Santos' age and profile, the Day-Date 36 ref. 118238 is a considered choice — it sits at the more classical end of the Rolex catalogue rather than the sport-leaning Daytona or Submariner route favoured by many of his peers. The baguette diamond detail adds a level of personalisation and rarity that suggests an informed selection rather than a default purchase, pointing to a collector who is paying attention to the specifics.
Antony Santos Spotted Wearing a Rolex Day-Date 36 in 18K Yellow Gold with Factory Diamond Dial, Ref. 118238
Inserted 30/11/2022
The Rolex Day-Date 118238 is one of the few references in the collection to leave the Rolex factory with baguette-cut diamond hour markers at 6 and 9 o'clock — a subtle but costly factory upgrade that sets it apart from standard diamond-set dials. The 36mm yellow gold case pairs with a deep black dial that makes each diamond read with exceptional contrast. Manchester United winger Antony Santos was spotted wearing the piece following his much-discussed debut, cementing his status as one of football's more discerning watch collectors.
