Where do you sign up to be one of LeBron James’ buddies?
The swagger merchant of Venice, the legend of Swagger Vance, are examples of two names that literally nobody calls former Ballon D’Or winner Ronaldinho. However, if LeBron James keeps giving him lavish gifts, they just might. (Although, they almost certainly won’t.)
NBA superstar James gave the Brazilian soccer legend a pretty awesome gift of a watch recently. Although, like every other watch, it’s only function is to tell the time, this one’s a little bit different. It’s a limited-edition LeBron James-designed Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore, one of only 600 in the world (excluding the cheap knock-offs the street vendor insists are genuine).
Unsurprisingly, these watches don’t come cheap. A LeBron James chronometer will set you back a cool 60 Gs American, which is roughly €53,000. That is probably the reason why Ronaldinho looks so damn content in this photo.
I loved this gift! Limited series watch from my bro @KingJames. Thanks, my friend! pic.twitter.com/B2l7RlTR6U
