Antonio Brown has been one of the most stylish and flashiest players in the NFL for over a decade. The retired NFL has doubled down on his style by donning a watch worth $1.3 million. Brown's new watch was made by the company Jacob & Co. The watch itself is an Astronomia Art ‘Green Dragon’ Tourbillon in 18k white gold, set with over 200 baguette-cut diamonds on the base dial.
A hand-painted 18K rose gold sculptured dragon is upright on the bottom of baguette diamonds and slides within the iconic Astronomia four-arm movement. The mythical dragon is a spectacular creature, standing for strength, power, glory, and good fortune.
Antonio Brown made the extravagant purchase soon after becoming part-owner of the National Arena League team the Albany Empire. Eddie Brown, the former Pittsburgh Steelers' dad, will be a part of the franchise as well. In the 1990s, Eddie was a standout player for the Albany Firebirds.
Antonio Brown and how owning the Albany Empire personal to him
Antonio Brown spoke at an introductory press conference as the co-owner of the Albany Empire. The seven-time Pro Bowler commented on how special it was for him to be back in the area.
Brown said:
“First and foremost, I’m excited and grateful to be a part of the Albany Empire. I grew up here watching my dad be successful and watching this building erupt. For me, to be in a family-oriented city like Albany, being here with my dad and my kids and just giving the community and players the opportunity to live out their dreams."
Brown added:
"So for me, it was easy. I’m just excited to be here and excited to bring Albany Empire a ‘three-peat’ and see the community and these players live out their dreams."
The former NFL star is also a rapper who now sits in the proverbal owner's box. Time will tell how things will fare out for Brown as he takes on this new venture.
