ESCAPE THE MATRIX FOR A SECOND WITH ANDREW TATE'S WATCHES WORTH MORE THAN £7 MILLION

From humble beginnings as a professional kickboxing world champion to starring on Big Brother, Andrew Tate’s growth in the social media scene has been as exponential as the price of a Patek Philippe Nautilus during COVID. Yes, that astronomical..and at times, a little volatile!

Seen arguing with environmental activist Greta Thunberg on social media when he pumped some fuel into his top-of-the-range Bugatti, he has received more notoriety than a P. Diddy party.

Noted for his tireless attempts at getting people to sign up to his masculinity courses and his elusive “War-Room”, we aren’t here to dabble in his shady past, nor split hairs about the self-proclaimed misogynist, or dubious claims on the role of men in the modern world. 

Not for a second.

Best we leave that to the commenters. We’re here to give an all-seeing exposition on Andrew Tate’s watches and which top luxury Swiss brands are his weapon of choice.

With such a major following, the stats are as impressive as a Rolex Daytona Paul Newman lemon dial. The figures read as follows;

9.9 million

Facebook

8.9 million

Instagram

From his various ahem enterprises, he has cashed in and made investments in one of the most expensive watch collections that fellow stars like John Mayer and LeBron James would gush over. 

From Haute Horlogerie Jacob & Co Bugatti Chiron Rose Gold as an ode to his…well his own rose gold coloured Bugatti, he likes his colourful watches, as seen through the Custom Made Patek Philippe with Emerald centre. 

Let’s not reveal all just yet. So, without any further ado, shall we attempt to escape the Matrix via Top G’s magnificent collection that’s more iced out than a high-end bakery? 

Good, let’s get straight into it! 

 

Who Is Andrew Tate? 

His career first saw him reach great success as a world champion kickboxer, and later in 2012, he started his webcam business. 

Upon his first rise in social stardom back in 2016, Andrew Tate rose to prominence after his stint on the popular British program, Big Brother, wherein he was a contestant and was promptly thrown off for allegedly attacking a woman.

After building his empire online, 2022 became the tipping point for his greatest success online. Arguing with Greta Thunburg over climate change and his Hustler University in full swing, he then had all of his social media accounts deleted, but later he was reinstated by Elon Musk on Twitter. 

After being accused of human trafficking, rape and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women, alongside his brother Tristan Tate, the pair were initally charged and detained.

In 2024, Andrew Tate regained access to his watches, cars and properties after the courts overturned a decision to seize his assets. 

After being arrested in Romania in March, they were detained again for allegations of sexual aggression from back in 2012 and 2015. From riches, cars and jail time, this is all starting to sound a little, Wolf of Wall Street, right?

Heck, he even had his watches seized in Romania back in August 2022 after police raided his home!

 

What Is The Matrix?

The Matrix, that Andrew Tate refers to, is a system that bounds society and enslaves them into following their masters. He has regularly referred to this, as noted in Tweets stating “The Matrix has attacked me,’ after he was allegedly assaulted in prison. 

The more popular definition is found to relate to the 1999 film, The Matrix, featuring Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss. 

 

Who Is The Most Googled Man In 2024?

Currently, the most Googled man in 2024 is Cristiano Ronaldo with an average of around 5 million hits per month. No one can keep this sports-star from winning, both on and off the pitch!

 

Who Is The Number 1 Googled Person?

The number 1 Googled person on earth is Taylor Swift. Shout out to all you Swifties.

Becoming one of the most streamed musicians in the world, her 21.9 million hits are all for a good reason…

There have been controversies surrounding AI images giving fake accounts of her personal and public life, her tours, new albums and exploding fanbase continue to keep her at the top of the leaderboard.

Not enough? Let’s take time out to give you a rundown of the top 20 most Googled people in 2024!

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 264700OR by its own accord has earned a few nicknames, including “Brick” and “Pounder” due to the pure weight behind the rose gold material on the case and bracelet (totalling around 330 grams), and it’s extra big 42mm x 14.6mm dimensions. 

Constructed using the legendary Royal Oak shape, including the octagonal bezel with eight prominent screws and tonneau case,  the watches pay tribute to the classic Royal Oak design, even if it is bulked out like Andrew Tate’s biceps!

For the dial, users are treated to an equally expansive Mega Tapisserie aesthetic. For those not in the know, this feature is a broader and more intrusive aesthetic, compared with the classic Petite Tapisserie which comes in smaller squares. 

This pitch black shade on the watches offers prominent 3D squares that allow the unorthodox rose gold triple sub counters at 12, 6 and 9 o’clock to be clearly displayed against it.

3 o’clock is taken up by a subtle date aperture, and sits very comfortably between the stencil style Arabic numerals with Super-Luminova centres. 

The tachymetric scale around the edge does hint to this being it’s traditional “sports-chic” self, but Andrew Tate can’t just flaunt an Audemars Piguet like everyone else!

Oh no, he has to go overboard as deep as an Omega Ploprof with baguette diamonds riddled across the board to give that extra, dress watch feel!

You can buy an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Selfwinding Chronograph at retail when you plan an appointment with the brand. However, the iced out version is not on standard watches, so you may have to visit your personal jeweller for any amendments.

Here, he opts for Hublot watches, the same brand that first combined a rubber strap with a precious metal case way back in 1980 when the US boycotted the Summer Olympic Games.

For the Classic Fusion line, previously introduced in 2010 at Baselworld, it takes its cues from the iconic Big Bang collection. However, it offers a timeless design in the form of a circular bezel, prominent screws and integrated strap. 

For Andrew Tate’s watch, he opts for the beautiful Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph Ceramic King. Crafted out of ceramic, this 45mm x 14.3mm beast is extremely scratch resistant and lightweight.

To be precise, ceramic is around three to four times lighter than steel, and interestingly on the Mohs scale, it is the second hardest material, (just underneath diamonds!). 

For a man who’s got hands like sledgehammers, it makes sense to wear a Hublot which is just as tough! However, ceramic is not the only material on show. Featuring a rose gold bezel, crown and pushers, the watches are luxurious, stylish, and bound to earn a few glances when he’s out selling his courses. 

For the dial, it comes in pitch black and is given slightly grey, vertical square markings across the face. This contrast not only earns more style points than a catwalk during London Fashion Week but also serves to allow the rose gold baton hour markers, hands, and dual subdials to enjoy optimal legibility.

Running within is the automatic HUB1143. Offering a 42 hour power reserve, the calibre is fitted with 59 jewels to ensure optimal performance, and exceptional accuracy. 

Unfortunately, you can no longer buy a Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph ‘Ceramic King’ 521.CO.1781.RX at retail as it’s been discontinued. However, you can buy it on the secondary market for upwards of £6,000 as of October 2024.

While Andrew Tate’s fame may have exploded in 2016 after his stint in Big Brother, it took until 2022 for him to capture the spotlight. Interestingly, this is just 3 years after Bugatti and Jacob & Co first collabed in 2019, with the express interest of producing a hyper-car inspired watch.

For Andrew Tate’s watches, he has chosen to go with the exceptional Bugatti Chiron Rose Gold. Designed to imitate the stunning shape of a Bugatti, they are crafted using a number of the car's design codes. 

Totalling 55 x 22mm, these exorbitant pieces are crafted out of both 18K rose gold and sapphire crystals, resulting in an uber-luxurious fusion of lavish precious metals, and tough, transparent sapphire elements, on both the front and the back. 

Given black ceramic pushers, the 30 metres of water resistance isn’t great… but this is something you probably would only wear when walking the red carpet at the Emmys or the Oscars!

Given a rose gold-plated dial with rich, dark blue hour markers and a fabulous, EB logo in the centre, the tips of the hands are given blue tips, distinguishing them from the main skeleton, rose gold hands. 

Built to break boundaries, the crowns and pushers offer some very funky features. Pressing the left crown sets the main time, the centre crown winds the movement and the automaton depending on which way you twist the crown. Finally, the right crown powers the W16 engine-block animation. 

Animation? Like on Looney Tunes? Not quite. Hang on a tick and we shall explain. A single block of sapphire imitates the W16 Bugatti engine, and by pressing the button, you can bear witness to 16 pistons firing up and down in their respective cylinders for 15 seconds. 

But, what makes this all happen? The sensational JCAM37 calibre is made up of 578 pieces and fitted with a one-minute flying-tourbillon at a 30 degree incline. Offering a 60 hour power reserve and 21,600VpH, the watches are definitely not for the faint of heart!

Capped at 72 pieces, you can buy a Jacob & Co Bugatti Chiron Rose Gold at retail for around £290,365 as of October 2024.

At 45mm, it is crafted out of satin-finished and polished titanium, lending to an everyday style that can be just as easily flexed in the boardroom, as catching a few cheeky cocktails with your buddies.

Given softly sloped, polished case sides, these markedly stand out from the circular bezel that’s affixed with 6 screws. Fitted with two pushers and a crown on the right of the case, the watch's silvery complexion allows the navy blue dial to be clearly presented. 

The sunburst finish is tasteful, especially since it allows the contrasting sunray finished subdials at 3 and 9 o’clock to clearly stand out. This is equally the case for the polished, faceted hour markers and hands. Don’t forget the handy date aperture at 6 o’clock that confirms the complexity of these beauties!

So, time is easy to read and we have the option of chronograph subdials to easily measure elapsed time, if we find ourselves late for a Tate convention, or something a little more personal like a dinner date. 

Speaking of the Tate, the man originally born in Washington, USA, where does his personal “iced out” stamp come in?

As usual, he simply cannot let a classic Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph design be. Enter, a case that’s so iced out that it makes the King’s crown look like a knockoff! These diamonds add that extra zhuzh of luxury, elevating it from a standard Hublot, to an incredibly rare one-of-a-kind. 

The HUB1143 is not a weakling. Far from it. Completely self-winding, this chronograph movement yields a 42 hour power reserve and offers 50 metres of water resistance. You can no longer buy a Hublot Classic Fusion Chronograph 521.NX.7170.LR at retail as it’s been discontinued. However, you can buy it on the secondary market for upwards of £3,500 as of October 2024. 

Note, this is not his special version!

Worn during a delightful, sunset boat trip in Albania, he’s certainly gone to the deep depth of the ocean with this nautical themed novelty. 

Interestingly, this is not iced out either…

Crafted out of 18K rose gold, the case diameter of 44mm ties in with Tate’s lust for the most luxurious things possible, even when choosing something fit for battling the waves.

Its large, circular case is fitted with a polished, 18K rose gold unidirectional rotating bezel, while giving a blue rubber inlay with a wave design. 

These are interjected with rose gold segments, identifying a 60-minute dive scale to measure de-compression phases, while there is a handy luminescent capsule at the top to clearly read the starting point. 

For the dial, this is a navy blue eye-catcher, mirroring the same wave pattern as the bezel. This, in turn, allows the applied rose gold hour markers with their luminescent centres to be boasted, especially since the watches have a red stripe running through their centre to further enhance legibility.

The rose gold skeletonised hands have the same lume tips and red stripes, creating a seamless aesthetic throughout. At 6 o’clock, there is a combined small seconds counter and date aperture, while at 12 o’clock, there is a power reserve indicator.

Offering 300 metres of water resistance alongside oodles of ostentatiousness, Andrew Tate may have just landed himself a gem of the dive watch world. Of course, nothing is complete without a reliable heartbeat. 

The Calibre UN-26 runs at its centre with a 28,800VpH and an estimated power reserve of 42 hours. Not weekend-proof but it’s nice to know that your watch is accurate and just as beautiful thanks to the glorious open sapphire caseback. 

You can no longer buy a Ulysee Nardin Maxi Marine Diver at retail as it’s been discontinued. However, you can buy it on the secondary market for upwards of £8,300 as of October 2024.

Chances are, you’ve read this title and thought “I have never heard of this variant of Patek Philippe!” 

Well, in the spirit of the man being so mysterious and ultra-wealthy, he has created his own execution, a one-of-one in which he is the sole owner. Yep, a piece unique that has never been so iced in all our lives.

It’s understood that he went to a jeweller in Dubai to get this beauty custom-made. We don’t know about you, Timelords, but for a gent that simply has it all, we respect the graft that goes into making him an individual in the horological world.

After a quick glance, you may be thinking, isn’t this the same reference 5726 that Drake has in the same emerald coated design? Sure, it’s just as magnificent, but this time, it is in fact a different piece. By the way, it was not designed by American fashion designer, Virgil Abloh. 

While Andrew Tate’s watch model is not explicitly mentioned anywhere, we can estimate that it is a customised 5711 or 5811/1G, due to the positioning of the date aperture at 3 o’clock.

This is coupled with the untouched, legendary octagonal bezel that’s defined the line since its initial release back in 1976 under designer, Gerald Genta.

Given a black DLC coating over the 18K gold material, this allows for a moodier effect, especially since the green emeralds are by default, a very dark shade. Therefore, from the edges of the integrated bezel, bracelet, and the case, this dark colour sets a perfect outline for the emeralds to shine. 

We don’t think we can estimate the number of emeralds though. Trust us! Making up the bracelet, bezel and the small, intricate placements throughout the dial, they make up the main hour markers, with two baguettes at 12 o ‘clock. 

Within the watch is the 26-330 S C, a strong movement with a 45 hour power reserve alongside a 28,800VpH. Secured with a Spiromax and certified with a Patek Philippe seal, the watch guarantees to offer exceptional accuracy. 

You can not buy a Patek Philippe Nautilus Emerald at retail as this is purely a one-of-one watch. Don’t be jealous, few folks have the coins to get so iced that they literally turn green

However, if you want the standard version, you can buy a Patek Philippe Nautilus 5811/1G at retail for £61,870 as of October 2024.

Specifically, he has opted for the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked 15407ST, but with a little added sparkle that we will get to in a minute!

Coming in at 41mm x 9.9mm, the watches are the optimal size for a man like Top-G, offering easy wearability alongside excellent style, due to the stainless steel case, undergoing vertical brushing across the fixed bezel and integrated bezel. 

Fitted with 8 signature screws, the bezel has not changed since its initial inception back in 1972. Offering just 50 metres of water resistance, they are not particularly durable in the waves, which is not good for his days out on the jet-ski..but a suitable amount for a quick hand wash. 

Coated almost completely with diamonds, this is across, the case, bezel and the bracelet. Iced out in an understatement! For the dial, this is completely openworked. Given a slate grey background, allowing the pink gold hour markers and Royal Oak hands to be clearly displayed. 

Beating within is the Calibre 3132. Powering the hours, minutes and seconds, the movement is fitted with 38 jewels, allowing the movement to seamlessly move, and this self winding movement offers a 45 hour power reserve.

For this watch, Audemars Piguet designed a system that fixes a second balance wheel and balance spring onto the same axis. This patented geometry is exceptionally complex, ensuring maximum precision and stability in all conditions. 

While you can’t buy Andrew Tate’s diamond riddled version, you can buy an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked at retail for £66,300 as of October 2024.

 

Conclusion

So Andrew Tate may have fallen out of Google’s top 20 search results (he’s currently at number 55 at the time of writing), but that won’t stop him from getting his word out there.

Even if he is in and out of jail more than Tony Soprano!

Andrew Tate’s watch collection is a summary of who he is as a person. Nothing can just be kept sacred and simple. For some of the greatest timepieces, like the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, he chooses to dress it up with more diamonds than Kate Middleton’s necklace. 

Right down to the stonewall classics like the Patek Philippe Nautilus, this is a collection that most horophiles could only dream of! For the ex UFC Champ, it’s a chance to express his brazen individuality by getting, literally, a one-of-one watch custom made with green emeralds to boot. 

It’s nice to see he does respect the less conventional brands like Hublot and their Classic Fusion lines, while testing your new scuba kit with the Ulysee Nardin Maxi Marine Diver. One thing can be said.

Andrew Tate may not always be the public’s poster boy for good behaviour. But he will go down in the horological history for his enigmatic watch collection. 

So, if you’re been pumping iron as much as Arnold Schwarzenegger, taking the courses and telling the ladies that you’re a “Top-G”, it may be worth looking to buy a watch to match your newfound attitude. But, where to find one with peerless service, quick turnaround and at the best possible price?
