A watch with Chhote Nawab's Pataudi family crest on it!

Saif Ali Khan, B-town's resident watch connoisseur had an international high-end Swiss watch brand fly down one of their best watches for him at the Cannes International Film Festival.

Seeing the Pataudi son's obsession with the accessory, the brand has now decided to introduce a limited edition wristwatch bearing his family's crest on it.

I am a 'Watch' man

Says a source close to the Chhote Nawab, "Saif loves collecting high-end watches from all parts of the world and has one of the best watch collections in Bollywood today.

Last week, he walked the red carpet at Cannes wearing a Tom Ford dinner jacket and an exclusive Swiss watch.

He had hand-picked that particular piece and had had the brand fly it down to him all the way from Switzerland for his red-carpet appearance."

The luxury watchmakers will now work on a special edition time-piece bearing Saif's family (Pataudi) crest and will gift it to him in a month's time.

Saif says, "It is too early to talk about these things. But yes, I love watches and collecting them."

Saif on Cannes

I was at Cannes, representing my brand but I also felt like I was representing my industry. Yesterday, I hosted a party and truly enjoyed meeting some interesting people from global cinema.

It's amazing how different their taste and palette towards cinema is compared to ours. For me, the ideal reason to come back to the French Riviera would be to showcase a movie of my own.
