Time is of the essence for Richmond champion Dustin Martin.
Martin is showing a liking for the finer things in life and sees fit to reward himself with, say, an expensive watch or special experience after a career high point.
The superstar footballer has collaborated with Melbourne-based luxury watch retailer Kennedy in a display of precision and excellence.
The two-time premiership player and 2017 Brownlow medallist will showcase Kennedy watches in a series of images and videos highlighting different styles of timepieces for different social occasions, from exercising to relaxing or attending black-tie events.
“I really like the style of the watches. I think they go with my own style,’’ Martin said.
“I treated myself to a luxury watch after the 2017 season. I think it’s important to reward yourself and celebrate after a lot of hard work.
“I work with Kennedy because they are constantly striving to achieve the best. I relate to that.’’
Martin is becoming something of a fashionista these days and is showing plenty of flair in front of a camera. He must have a growing collection of fine watches, and has previously spoken of his love of Melbourne’s up-market dining scene — Rockpool, Vue de Monde and France-Soir are among his favourite dining choices.
Martin and his Tiger teammates will launch into the 2020 AFL season on Thursday night as the reigning premiers against Carlton.
