The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 43

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 43 is crafted with stainless steel and black ceramics and is powered by Calibre 4401. The smoked taupe “Méga Tapisserie” dial, the refined finishing and the rubber strap make it the ideal timepiece. The white gold Royal Oak hands have a luminescent coating and the black inner bezel makes it look appealing. This is the timepiece that Ambani wore during one of his meetings with Justin Beiber who performed at his wedding.

The Patek Philippe Nautilus 5990/1422G White Gold, Diamond and Ruby

The Patek Philippe Nautilus Travel Time is said to be the perfect timepiece for the travelling businessman which seems perfect given Anant Ambani’s love for watches. The watch offers a dual time zone mechanism and runs on the CH 28-520 C calibre with a 55-hour power reserve. It is a stunning timepiece and one of the most expensive Nautilus models, adorned as it is with baguette-cut diamonds, and rubies and set in 18k white gold. It costs approximately 11 crores (approx. RM6.1 million) according to media reports.
