Karim Benzema wears £435k Richard Mille watch at Ballon d’Or ceremony

Karim Benzema rocked up to the glitzy Ballon d’Or ceremony wearing a watch worth a whopping £435,000.

Meanwhile his humble rival Robert Lewandowski had a cheap £52 Casio number strapped to his wrist.

According to the Spanish publication Marca, Benzema’s jewelry is valued close to 500,000 pounds.

On Monday night, the 34-year-old looked sharp as he flew to France for the awards ceremony. He arrived without his girlfriend Jordan Ozuna.

When Benzema of Real Madrid won the Ballon d’Or, he had the opportunity to display his posh Richard Mille watch live on stage.

It marked the end of a spectacular trip for Benzema, who had previously been barred from the national team and put on trial for his alleged involvement in sex tape blackmailing Mathieu Valbuena.

Additionally, the RM 65-01 Richard Mille timepiece he wore is advertised as “the most complex timepiece ever to leave the Richard Mille workshops” and as a result, it is quite expensive.

But with Benzema’s staggering weekly salary of £275k, as reported by Salary Sport, it would only take him under TWO WEEKS to save enough for the watch.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, the French striker has a net worth of £62.5 million, so he made sure his jewellery stood out at the formal occasion.

Rival for the Ballon d’Or and Barcelona’s Benzema chose to keep things straightforward.

Lewandowski arrived with his wife Anna sporting a £52 Casio watch.

Although he took a wage reduction to move to Barcelona, the 34-year-old dessert enthusiast still reportedly makes £150,000 per week.

He is said to have a net worth of £75 million, which is more than Benzema, and could easily afford to purchase a watch that is on par with Benzema’s.

The two competed against one another on the field last weekend before doing so once more the following day for the Ballon d’Or prize.

And Benzema triumphed on both occasions.

Sunday’s El Clasico saw Real Madrid defeat Barcelona 3-1, although Lewandowski could only manage to place fourth overall for the coveted award.

Despite winning the Muller Trophy, which is given to the player with the most goals scored in a given year.
