Cole Palmer spotted wearing limited edition Richard Mille watch worth eye-watering £220,000 as Chelsea talisman gears up for Club World Cup

Palmer was snapped wearing a stunning Richard Mille RM 07-04 watch worth £220,000 as he boarded Chelsea’s flight to the United States for the Club World Cup. The limited edition timepiece, inspired by Italy’s elite car brands and finished in tricolour hues, was visible in a social media post shared by the Blues.

The watch, crafted from lightweight titanium, is popular among top footballers, and Palmer’s version of the Richard Mille timepiece is one of the rarest. The Chelsea star, reportedly earning £130,000 per week, had no problem shelling out for the piece, cementing his status as one of football’s newest fashion icons.
