F1 Fans Demand Accountability as Lewis Hamilton Shows off $225,000 Watch While LeBron James Destroys Warriors

Lewis Hamilton showed up at the Lakers vs Warriors game on Friday wearing a $225,000 Patek Philippe watch to witness LeBron James destroy the Warriors. Meanwhile, F1 fans demanded answers from the 7-time world champion.

For a long time, Hamilton has been endorsing IWC watches and fans usually expect him to keep up with the alliance in his public appearances. However, across the Atlantic, he ditched his commercial commitment with IWC to flaunt the luxurious Patek Phillippe timepiece.

An Instagram account, insaneluxurylife, pointed out that Hamilton wore a Nautilus 5980 Chronograph in 18k rose gold. The Genevan watchmaker launched this series in 2013 and instantly garnered attention from many celebrities.
