Extravagant weddings and grand pre-wedding festivities are quite common when it comes to renowned celebrities. But while a lot of expensive weddings have showcased a spectacle of grandeur, none could compare to the world’s most expensive wedding between Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant, attended by global celebrities like John Cena, Nick Jonas, and even the Kardashians.
Spending a staggering $1B budget that attracted global attention, Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s extravagant wedding not only showcased the couple’s sophistication but also provided a glimpse into the world of elites and their luxurious lifestyles. While the occasion featured celebrities donning an array of brands, the one thing that caught the most attention was high-end luxury watches.
John Cena’s Watch Couldn’t Stand Out in Comparison to Others
With extensive celebrations spanning into the Mediterranean cruise alongside lavish parties, Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant set a new standard for wedding extravagance, which was attended by global icons and popular figures. While the occasion featured a glimpse into the world of renowned icons, it also allowed people to get an idea of their lifestyle based on the watches worn.
Catching people’s attention on social media, Hollywood personalities like John Cena and Nick Jonas’ timepieces made headlines for their grandeur. But surprisingly, compared to Anant Ambani and other Indian celebrities, Cena’s watch in particular turned out to be a fine example of modesty. According to @ifuckinglovewatches on Instagram, the video offered a closer look into the watches and their prices.
According to the video, Hollywood icon John Cena was spotted wearing a $11,500 Rolex Explorer II ‘white’ in stainless steel, while international pop star Nick Jonas sported a Richard Mille RM11-01 chronograph ‘Roberto Mancini’ in 18k rose gold, worth $200,000. But surprisingly, compared to Indian actor Ranveer Singh, who donned a $500,000 Rolex Daytona ‘Rainbow’ with diamonds on the dial and bracelet, Cena and Jonas’ timepieces seemed pale.
Despite the renowned WWE superstar and actor, John Cena‘s success, and estimated net worth of $80 million (via Celebrity Net Worth), his choice of timepiece at the wedding came as an understatement of his fortune. Valued at $11,500, although his Rolex watch was high-end by most standards, it was decidedly understated compared to the other watches on display.
Anant Ambani Wore a $4.5 Million Watch at His $1 Billion Wedding
So it seems, that while the international icons couldn’t showcase their magnificence at the world’s most expensive wedding, Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya shared a glimpse of his remarkable taste in watches. Donning a $1.2M Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/113P ‘Emerald’ in platinum watch Pandya seemingly competed with Anant Ambani.
According to @ifuckinglovewatches, Anant Ambani, the son of the Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani, was spotted donning an astounding $4.5M Richard Mille RM 52-05 Tourbillon ‘Pharrell Williams’ in Sapphire. Epitomizing the zenith of watchmaking craftsmanship, the groom highlighted the hallmark of high-end horology.
However, in contrast to the magnificent amount spent on his wedding, Ambani’s watch simply appeared to be a merely expensive timepiece. According to Vanguardngr, Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s marriage was not just a celebration of love but also a showcase of opulence considering the expense of $1B. From arranging cruise parties to hiring Justin Bieber and Rihanna for performances, the wedding illustrated the broad spectrum of luxury.
