NFL star Travis Kelce grandly celebrated Taylor Swift’s 35th birthday by showering her with luxurious gifts totaling an estimated $175K., as reported by Cosmopolitan. Speculation has it that among the gifts, was a Rolex Day-Date 36, which is priced at $60,350. The watch is crafted in 18 ct Everose gold. This extravagant gesture has resulted in fans going abuzz about the couple’s relationship.
The centerpiece of Kelce’s birthday surprise was the Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 36 by Rolex. The Day-Date line was introduced in 1956. It became the first wristwatch to display the day and date in full on its dial. Over the decades, the watch has been tagged by fans as The President's Watch, as it is often favored by world leaders and global cultural icons.
Travis Kelce chose Rolex Day-Date 36 to make Taylor's 35th birthday gift luxurious
Kelce’s chosen Rolex model features a white mother-of-pearl dial, which is further accentuated with diamond hour markers. A diamond-set bezel is sported for a luxurious appeal.
The iconic President bracelet is made of solid gold links. In addition, this timepiece sports Rolex's self-winding mechanical movement, and a 70-hour power backup.
Here is how Rolex itself describes this luxury fashion item:
"The Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 36 in 18 ct yellow gold with a green ombré, diamond-set dial, fluted bezel and a President bracelet. The ombré dial features a coloured surface at the centre, progresses to a deep black around the edge. This dial represents the continuity of a design that Rolex introduced in the 1980s and relaunched in 2019."
It continues:
"They are made with only the purest metals and meticulously inspected in an in-house laboratory with state-of-the-art equipment, before the gold is formed and shaped with the same painstaking attention to quality. Rolex's commitment to excellence begins at the source."
Kelce didn’t stop at the Rolex. Reports indicate he also gifted Swift an assortment of jewelry worth nearly $95,000, which included custom pieces from Tiffany & Co., and Van Cleef & Arpels.
Among the highlights were a gold split cuff with a heart engraving, a signature Elsa Peretti open-heart bracelet, and a set of Alhambra jewelry featuring a long necklace, pendant, and earrings. Adding to the grandeur, Kelce arranged for a luxe floral display of 35 bouquets from The Million Roses, which is priced at over $19,000.
Kelce and Swift’s relationship captured public attention ever since rumors began circulating earlier this year.
Their relationship has also brought Taylor Swift closer to the world of football. Fans have spotted her multiple times at Chiefs games. However, she missed Kelce’s recent game against the Cleveland Browns. Reports suggest that the couple enjoyed an intimate birthday celebration earlier that week.
