There are famous watch buffs, and then there’s Ed Sheeran.
The “Shape of You” hitmaker is seldom seen without an ultra-rare Richard Mille or vintage Rolex Daytona replica watches for sale slapped onto his t-shirted arm.
His collection includes best fake Patek Philippe Grand Complication 5208P watches, an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar in ceramic and even a Tiffany-stamped Nautilus – 1:1 copy watches UK that are grail-level for even the most hardened collectors.
But among all the heavy hitters, one piece stands above the rest.
Ed Sheeran’s “most coolest watch” is one-off cheap replica Patek Philippe 5230G World Time watches – made bespoke to feature his hometown, Framlingham, on the dial.
Where the standard version lists London, Sheeran’s reads “Framlingham” – a quiet Suffolk market town and civil parish best-known for its 12th-century castle where Mary Tudor (later Queen Mary I) rallied her supporters before claiming the English throne.
Now it’s immortalised in high-end Swiss horology.
The AAA super clone watches is crafted in 18k white gold and features a blue hand-guilloché dial – a tone reminiscent of the rare “New York” edition, but with a custom shade never used before.
The Patek Philippe 5230G replica watches for men belongs to a legendary lineage of Patek Philippe World Timers – a complication first developed in the 1930s with Louis Cottier.
The UK top fake watches was updated in 2016 to replace the outgoing 5130, introducing slimmer lugs, a reworked dial and an updated city ring.
At its heart is the ultra-thin calibre 240HU – with a micro-rotor and elegant finishing typical of Patek’s top-end replica watches paypal.
For Sheeran – who does a lot of touring around the globe – it’s more than just another rare piece.
Seeing “Framlingham” at 24-hour intervals puts him right back in agricultural East Anglia.
Swiss made knock off watches often mean more than just telling time – they mark milestones, carry memories and connect us to people or places.
But the tattooed “Thinking Out Loud” tunesmith has created perhaps the logical conclusion to that idea: wristwear that’s a love letter to where it all began.
