Introduction to Xabi Alonso
Xabi Alonso is one of the most decorated and respected figures in European football. Born in Tolosa, Spain, in 1981, he built a playing career that spanned Real Sociedad, Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich, winning the UEFA Champions League, two La Liga titles, the FIFA World Cup, and two UEFA European Championships with Spain. Since hanging up his boots, Alonso has moved seamlessly into management, guiding Bayer Leverkusen to a historic unbeaten Bundesliga title in the 2023-24 season — the club's first league championship. His reputation in both roles is the same: methodical, composed, and tactically precise.
The Xabi Alonso watch collection, as far as public sightings go, points to a man with a clear and considered taste. Alonso has been spotted wearing an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph in 18-karat rose gold, reference 26320OR.OO.D002CR.01. The watch is built around the Royal Oak's 41mm case, finished in rose gold and anchored by the octagonal bezel with eight hexagonal screws — Gerald Genta's 1972 design brought to life in warm precious metal. The dial carries a rich brown Grande Tapisserie pattern, AP's fine hobnail texture that gives the watch depth without noise. It is not a flashy choice; it is a specific one, which tracks for someone who has spent a career making deliberate decisions under pressure.
With only one confirmed sighting in our database, drawing sweeping conclusions about the full breadth of Alonso's collection would be premature. What the 26320OR.OO.D002CR.01 does suggest, however, is an appreciation for engineering with heritage — a watch that does not need to announce itself, made by a manufacture with a long track record of doing things its own way. For a footballer-turned-manager who has consistently let results speak louder than words, that feels like a coherent fit.

Inserted 30/11/2022
The Royal Oak Chronograph ref. 26320OR.OO.D002CR.01 houses the in-house calibre 2385 — a column-wheel integrated chronograph movement with a 40-hour power reserve, visible through a sapphire caseback. Cased in 18-karat rose gold at 41mm with a chocolate brown 'Grande Tapisserie' dial and a matching brown leather strap, it represents one of the most refined executions in the Royal Oak family. Xabi Alonso, the technically precise Bayern Munich midfielder, has long had a reputation for understated elegance both on and off the pitch — and this choice reflects exactly that.
