Babr Azam — watch collection

About Babr Azam’s watch collection

Babar Azam is one of the most accomplished cricketers of his generation, widely considered the best batsman in contemporary international cricket. Born in Lahore in 1994, he has captained Pakistan across all three formats of the game and has accumulated an extraordinary run of centuries in Test, ODI, and T20 cricket. At his peak, he simultaneously held the top ICC ranking in all three formats — a feat that places him in genuinely rare company in the sport's history. He has been the centerpiece of Pakistan's batting lineup since his international debut in 2015 and remains one of the most watched and followed cricketers on the planet.

When it comes to watches, the Babar Azam watch collection currently on our radar centers on a single, well-chosen piece from Rolex. He has been photographed wearing a stainless steel Rolex Submariner Date reference 126610LV — the green-bezeled variant that Rolex introduced at Baselworld 2020 to mark the 50th anniversary of the original green-bezeled Submariner. The 126610LV pairs a unidirectional rotating bezel in green Cerachrom ceramic with a matte black dial and runs on the in-house Calibre 3235 movement. It is one of the most in-demand references in the current Rolex catalog, consistently trading above retail on the secondary market.

The choice of the Submariner Date 126610LV tells you something about where Babar's taste sits. It is a sport watch with genuine credibility — a tool diver by heritage — but one that also carries significant cultural weight right now. For a 30-year-old at the absolute top of his profession, it is a grounded, considered pick rather than a flashy one. We will be watching his wrist closely as his profile continues to grow on and off the field.
