Virgil Van Dijk, Liverpool and Netherlands national team's star defender, is known to have a taste for luxury watches. Recently, he was spotted wearing the new Audemars Piguet Royal Oak "Jumbo" extra-thin 16202OR in 18k rose gold with smoked slate grey ‘Petite Tapisserie’ dial. This watch comes with the latest selfwinding movement, Calibre 7121 and boasts a "50-years" oscillating weight crafted in 22-carat rose gold.

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak "Jumbo" has been a popular timepiece for many watch enthusiasts, and with Van Dijk sporting it, its popularity is only set to grow. The detailing of this watch is impeccable, and the unique combination of rose gold and grey gives it a refined appearance. It’s also highly functional, with its self-winding movement and a power reserve of 40 hours.
