Pep Guardiola made a striking appearance in the Spanish capital, donning a classic black roll neck jumper and blazer, accessorized with a rare watch by luxury manufacturer Richard Mille. The Calibre RM27-01, part of the Rafael Nadal collection, originally retailed for $750,000 but is now estimated to be worth $1.5 million due to its rarity. Guardiola, known for his collection of fancy watches, also owns other timepieces by Richard Mille, including some valued at $95,000. During his time in the Spanish capital, Guardiola provided his thoughts on the playing field, noting the impressive quality of the locker rooms while also acknowledging the subpar condition of the grass.
