Much has been spoken about Anant Ambani’s penchant for collecting ultra luxury watches. However, an appreciation for elegant timepieces runs in the whole family. From mum Nita Ambani to wife Radhika Merchant, the Ambani ladies are often seen sporting some of the most luxurious and exquisite watches in the world. These timepieces are not just accessories, but statements of elegance and opulence. Let’s delve into the world of high-end horology and explore some of the most stunning watches adorning the wrists of the Ambani women.
From a Rs 3.9 Crore watch owned by Nita Ambani to Radhika Merchant’s Rs 1.35 Crore plus timepiece, here are 7 luxury watches that the Ambani women own
Nita Ambani
Nita Ambani’s love for art and culture is widely known. The billionaire philanthropist, and chairperson and founder of the Reliance Foundation, is herself a trained dance, and is often seen wearing and promoting Indian designers and artisans. However, her collection not only boasts of one-of-a-kind jewellery pieces, or designer collections, it also includes an enviable array of luxury watches.
Earlier this year, Mrs Ambani was spotted wearing a Jacob and Co Fleurs De Jardin Pink Sapphires watch. Inspired by the luxury watch brand’s iconic Astronomia calibre, this timepiece transforms the dial into a dazzling garden. Vibrant gems and colours bloom across the watch face, bringing a living masterpiece to the wrist, which cost about Rs 3.9 crore.
Another one-of luxury timepieces we spotted on her was in her family portrait with her mother and sister, for which she wore a Patek Philippe Aquanaut Luce Haute Joaillerie. This watch is a rose gold siren. The engraved mother-of-pearl dial, featuring a checkerboard pattern in two shades of beige, is elegantly framed by a dazzling diamond-set bezel. The self-winding movement is visible through the sapphire-crystal display back, offering a glimpse of its intricate craftsmanship. The price tag for this unique item is pretty hefty, ranging between Rs 1.3 crore to Rs 1.6 crore.
Nita Ambani was seen cheering on her IPL team, Mumbai Indians, throughout the tournament last year. For one of their matches, she was seen sporting a customised jersey and a Patek Philippe Nautilus (referenceL 7118/1200R). Her rose gold timepiece boasted a rounded octagonal bezel, an ingenious porthole case construction, and a horizontally embossed dial. Since 1976, the Nautilus has epitomised the elegance of the sports watch. With a price tag of about $65,400, this watch is approximately over Rs 54 lakh.
Isha Ambani
The 32-year-old heiress is currently having a fashion moment, especially after wearing a Rahul Mishra outfit at the MET Gala this year, and a Schiaparelli saree for her brother’s wedding celebrations last month. Although she has more of a penchant for jewellery than watches, she has in her collection a Hublot Big Bang Gold Tutti Frutti 41mm timepiece, featuring Solid 18kt rose gold bezel set with 48 Baguette cut orange sapphires. It may not be officially available anywhere as of now, but the price range of it is slated at somewhere between Rs 11 lakhs to Rs 12 lakhs.
