Introduction to Javier Chicharito Hernández
Javier 'Chicharito' Hernández is one of the most decorated Mexican footballers of his generation. Born in Guadalajara in 1988, he broke through at Chivas before a move to Manchester United in 2010 launched him onto the global stage. He went on to represent Real Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen, West Ham United, Sevilla, and LA Galaxy, retiring in 2023 as Mexico's all-time leading international scorer with 52 goals across 109 caps. His nickname — inherited from his father, also a professional footballer — became a brand in itself, recognised as readily in European football as it is across North America.
The Javier Chicharito Hernández watch collection reflects the tastes of someone who has spent time in the dressing rooms of elite European clubs and the courtside seats of NBA arenas. He has been spotted wearing Richard Mille on multiple occasions, most notably the RM 055 Automatic in ATZ white ceramic — the model developed alongside two-time Masters champion Bubba Watson and built around a skeletonised automatic movement housed in an ultra-lightweight tonneau case. Beyond Richard Mille, Chicharito has been seen with Rolex references, pieces from Patek Philippe, and Hublot, a brand with long-standing ties to football through its FIFA and club sponsorship activity. Across the eight watches catalogued in our database, the range moves between high-complication independent watchmaking and more recognisable luxury sports references.
What stands out in his collection is a preference for technically ambitious watches rather than purely dress-oriented pieces. The RM 055 sighting at Crypto.com Arena during a Lakers game is a good illustration of how he wears watches — in relaxed, high-visibility environments where the choice reads as considered rather than performative. The Bubba Watson reference in particular is a limited-production model that sits outside the mainstream Richard Mille catalogue, suggesting some degree of active curation behind the collection.
