Introduction to Nishad Ak
Nishad Ak is a prominent entrepreneur based in the Gulf region, best known as Co-Founder of the Malabar Group, one of the largest retail and business conglomerates operating across the Middle East and beyond. He also serves as Chairman of Cosmos Sports, a role that places him at the intersection of business leadership and sporting culture. With decades of enterprise-building behind him, Nishad Ak has established himself as a recognisable figure in Gulf business circles, regularly appearing at high-profile commercial and sporting events where sharp eyes have had the opportunity to clock what's on his wrist.
The Nishad Ak watch collection, as documented in our sightings database, leans firmly toward Rolex — specifically the brand's professional sports line. He has been photographed wearing the Rolex GMT-Master II reference 126710BLNR, the model collectors refer to as the 'Batman' on account of its black and blue ceramic bezel. This is the current-generation GMT-Master II, introduced at Baselworld 2019, and it represents a meaningful upgrade over its predecessor. The 126710BLNR runs on the Calibre 3285, a Rolex manufacture movement equipped with a Chronergy escapement and a paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, delivering a 70-hour power reserve. It is also offered on the five-link Jubilee bracelet, which is the configuration most associated with the 'Batman' designation and the one that drives considerable demand on the secondary market.
Choosing the GMT-Master II 126710BLNR reflects a practical and considered approach to watch ownership. For a businessman who operates across multiple time zones throughout the Gulf and South Asia, a dual-time-zone complication is genuinely functional rather than decorative. The reference is also among the most liquid and consistently sought-after references in the current Rolex catalogue, which suggests an awareness of the market that you might expect from someone with Nishad Ak's commercial background.
Nishad Ak Spotted Wearing Rolex GMT-Master II 'Batman' Ref. 126710BLNR
Inserted 09/06/2023
The Rolex GMT-Master II 126710BLNR — nicknamed 'Batman' for its black-and-blue ceramic bezel — commands grey-market premiums of more than double its retail price, a rare feat even within the Rolex ecosystem. Introduced at Baselworld 2019 as the successor to the 116710BLNR, it pairs a Jubilee bracelet with the brand's in-house Calibre 3285 movement for the first time on this reference. Indian entrepreneur Nishad Ak, Co-Founder of Malabar Group and Chairman of Cosmos Sports, was recently spotted wearing this highly coveted traveller's watch.
