I guess if you are rich and famous you can wear it on the wrong wrist. Of course he has basically every watch out there. That is one strange looking watch!

He’s 10 times more likely to call it a Sprite than a “126720VTNR”

Many people say he waited until he got the green one before announcing.

Roger was wearing the AK during his post-game, on court, interview. For some reason, it's a good looking watch on most, but on him it looked like the coolest Rolex ever made! He makes anything look awesome.

As a real amateur, that's one of the problems I have reading TRF posts.

This comment needs to be commended for its hilarity. Gave me a chuckle on a shitty day

That’s why they pay him the big bucks.

In this pictures “post match he lost with Nadal” Roger is wearing an Air King.
I never saw him wearing the gmt afterwards. The gmt picture may have been taken on a different day.

He wore a different Rolex every day of the Laver Cup last week. Legend.

Not a fan of that model, but can see the appeal.

Does anyone know if he left the watches he wasn't wearing that day in a hotel safe?

Exactly, one for each wrist as it was designed, but celebrities and people in general now wear thing how they feel comfortable, nice duo by the way. Enjoy them
