I’ve got to go get a green jacket,” Rory McIlroy says as he celebrates with family and friends after winning the first playoff hole at the Masters against Justin Rose.
On the sports calendar, there’s nothing more significant than Masters Sunday. It takes an otherworldly amount of nerve and resolve to enter the final round with a lead and maintain it with a host of worthy chasers, but Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy did just that. He had the added pressure of becoming just the sixth player to complete the Career Grand Slam, which, by his own admission, was becoming less and less of a possibility as the years went by. While you can head over to any number of sports websites to cover golf storylines in detail, here, we’re focusing on the perfect Omega replica watches.
If you didn’t know this, let us be the first to tell you—Rory is a UK luxury Omega fake watches guy. Here at Hodinkee, we’ve had the pleasure of sitting down with him a couple of times. First, in a video interview where we spoke to him about a multitude of things in the lead-up to the 2020 PGA Championship, and later for an in-depth conversation on Episode 99 of Hodinkee Radio. We can think of no better content to enjoy for a Sunday night nightcap or your Monday morning commute—depending on when you’re reading this.
But Rory was on our radar long before 2020, back when he had long hair and was the child prodigy coming out of Northern Ireland as Europe’s answer to Tiger Woods. Back in 2011, he was a fan of Audemars Piguet.
McIlroy had been waiting his entire life for this moment that many thought would never come, yet on Masters Sunday 2025, his dream came true. So what did he wear to commemorate such an occasion, in what surely will be the most shared photograph of his life and b-roll for many Masters broadcasts to come? The high quality replica Omega Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary watches, which I must say pairs nicely with his green jacket. McIlroy, who has been a brand ambassador for Omega since 2013 and even designed a special edition of the AAA online Omega Speedmaster copy watches, displayed an incredible amount of relief and joy as he hoisted the coveted trophy and donned the green jacket for the first time.
But this wasn’t the only top 1:1 Omega replica watches UK that caught our eye after the seventy-third hole. Upon sinking the final putt for the title that’s eluded him for so long, he ran up to his wife to celebrate, who was also wearing a watch to match the occasion, a rare Patek Philippe Nautilus 7118/1200R in Rose Gold.
It’s safe to say the McIlroys will be celebrating this one for a long time to come, and they will certainly do so with style, both in the trophy cabinet and on their wrists.
