Introduction to Cenk Tosun
Cenk Tosun is a Turkish professional footballer born in Wetzlar, Germany, in 1991. He came through the youth ranks in Germany before moving to Turkey, where he developed into one of the most effective strikers in the Süper Lig with Beşiktaş. His performances in Istanbul — including a league title and consistent goal returns — earned him a high-profile Premier League move to Everton in January 2018, one of the more significant Turkish player transfers of that era. He has also represented the Turkish national team across multiple international tournaments, cementing his status as one of his country's more recognisable footballers of the past decade.
When it comes to watches, Tosun has shown a preference for serious horology rather than flashy novelties. The centrepiece of the Cenk Tosun watch collection documented so far is a stainless steel Patek Philippe Nautilus ref. 5990/1A-001 — a piece that sits at the more technically complex end of the Nautilus family. The 5990/1A is driven by Caliber CH 28-520 HU, a self-winding movement that combines a flyback chronograph with a dual time zone function, a local-time display, and day/night indicators for both home and travel time zones. For a footballer who divides his career between Turkey, England, and international fixtures, a travel time complication is less of an affectation and more of a practical tool.
The Nautilus 5990/1A is not the most visible or straightforward reference Patek makes — it lacks the immediate name recognition of the basic ref. 5711 — but among collectors it carries considerable weight precisely because of its movement architecture. Choosing this reference over a simpler Nautilus suggests either genuine horological awareness or access to well-informed advice. Either way, it positions Tosun's taste closer to the collector end of the spectrum than the celebrity-gifting end, which makes his collection worth watching as his career continues.
Cenk Tosun Spotted Wearing Stainless Steel Patek Philippe Nautilus Travel Time Ref. 5990
Inserted 30/11/2022
The Patek Philippe Nautilus Travel Time Ref. 5990/1A is one of the most technically complex iterations of Gerald Genta's iconic 1976 design, housing a flyback chronograph alongside a dual-timezone display — a combination Patek achieved without bloating the 40.5mm stainless steel case beyond wearability. Everton and Turkish international striker Cenk Tosun was photographed wearing exactly this reference, a watch that sits at a compelling crossroads of sportswear aesthetics and serious haute horlogerie.
