The Super Bowl Halftime Show is one of the most-watched entertainment events on the planet, tuned into by well over 100 million viewers around the world each year alongside the NFL’s championship game. This year, the blockbuster performance at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, marked a night when pop culture and sports collided on one of the biggest broadcast stages in history. The headliner of the evening took shape as Puerto Rican rapper, singer, and record producer Bad Bunny, with musical guest appearances from Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin. And while one of the most memorable moments of the show had to be the impromptu wedding, which has been confirmed to be real, one of the real showstoppers of the night was a very special watch worn by none other than Bad Bunny himself.
The watch in the spotlight last night was an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak (Ref. 15553BA.OO.1356BA.04), showcasing one of the brand’s most iconic watches on one of sports’ biggest stages. The 37mm Royal Oak features a smaller case than its 40mm+ counterparts, yet remains robust thanks to its legendary octagonal shape, courtesy of Mr. Gerald Genta. What makes this specific Royal Oak special, in addition to being an all-yellow gold version, is its vibrant green malachite dial and the captivating texture it reveals. The stone dial is complemented by yellow gold hands and hour-markers, and a yellow gold-toned inner bezel. It was the Royal Oak’s integrated bracelet that gave us a clear indication of the brand and model Bad Bunny was wearing when he first hit the field, and the rest was history.
