With the Miami Heat extending its winning streak to 24 games, the hottest team in basketball not only deserves credit for their decisions on the court, but also, for their fashion decisions off of the court. The team’s hot streak is not limited to the basketball court, but is carried into player’s personal wardrobe decisions, particularly what they are wearing on their wrists. The two superstars of the Miami Heat, LeBron James and Dwayne Wade, both serve as ambassadors for different luxury watch brands.
The Miami Heat’s forward and the NBA’s MVP for the 2012 season, LeBron James, sports an Audemars Piguet watch off of the court. His watch of choice is the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore. King James owns the court and owns the large chronograph that he puts on his wrist in the locker room after games. As one of the most famous and influential athletes, James knows that he is constantly being watched and everything he does is scrutinized, whether it is a shot on the court or a fashion accessory. The fact that James is an ambassador for Audemars Piguet shows that he is confident and proud to wear such an esteemed and respected brand. It is only appropriate that one of the best players should wear one of the best luxury watches.
The shooting guard for the Miami Heat, Dwyane Wade, is just as wary of his fashion choices. To mirror his speed and precision on the court, it is only appropriate that Wade wears a watch that also possesses these qualities. This is why Dwyane Wade is an ambassador for Hublot. During a career full of many honors, such as two NBA Championships, NBA Finals MVP, and Olympic Gold Medalist, Wade deserves to wear a watch with a history just as illustrious. Hublot has created the King Power Dwyane Wade 48mm, which is durable, aesthetically pleasing, and extremely precise.
Because these two players are both so precise and accurate with their shots and moves on the court, these two luxury watch brands mirror those characteristics perfectly.
