Footballer Anthony Martial spotted wearing Audemars Piguet

Manchester United fans were overjoyed on Saturday after the team won the FA Cup by beating Crystal Palace 2-1. Aside from the game's nail-biting action, fans were also buzzing about the watch seen on the wrist of United winger Anthony Martial. The French international was spotted wearing an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph, specifically the Reference 26320OR.OO.1220OR.01 model.

The stunning timepiece has a UK RRP of £40,740 and is highly coveted in watch circles for its precision and style. The Royal Oak Chronograph features a striking 18-carat rose gold case and a silver-toned "Grande Tapisserie" patterned dial with rose gold hour-markers and hands. Powered by a mechanical movement, the watch also has a chronograph function and three sub-dials for measuring hours, minutes and seconds.

For watch enthusiasts, seeing Martial's wrist adorned by such a fine timepiece adds an extra dimension to the excitement generated by Man United's FA Cup victory. And the fact that the Royal Oak Chronograph has such a strong association with sports and luxury only adds to its appeal. As United fans bask in the glory of their team's triumph, they can perhaps take some inspiration from Martial's decision to wear his prized Audemars Piguet watch as a symbol of his own personal success.
