Michael Jordan has been spotted wearing one of the world's rarest Rolex watches at Talladega Super Speedway while supporting his NASCAR team.

The 61-year-old is worth approximately $3.5 billion and has gained a reputation for enjoying high-end luxury items such as cars and watches since he retired.

Jordan won the NBA title on six occasions, was crowned the MVP in the NBA Finals another six times, and was named the NBA's Most Valuable Player five times throughout his career.

The former Chicago Bulls star secured his wealth through a deal with Nike which made Jordan the face of the most popular basketball and sneaker shoe of all time.

Recently while supporting 23XI Racing in NASCAR, Jordan was spotted wearing the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona “LeMans” 126529LN, which is one of the most iconic watches ever made.

The watch was made to celebrate two key anniversaries in motorsport and watchmaking: The Centenary of the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the 60th Anniversary of the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona.

The model is also shrouded in mystery as nobody knows exactly how many are in circulation although one thing is for sure, they are extremely rare.

Although money is likely never to be an issue for the billionaire, the watch is currently enjoying an upward trend in its value as watches have been sold for up to $250,000 in the secondary market.

Jordan has also recently splashed out on a brand-new custom car from Italian car manufacturer, Pininfarina, worth an estimated $2 million.

The new car, known as the 'Pininfarina Battista Targamerica' is decked out in a silver-and-blue exterior with a tan interior, and even features a custom aluminum cigar holder and humidor between the front seats.

Alongside a photo of Jordan and his new car, Pininfarina wrote: "Today, we celebrate a truly special moment—the delivery of a bespoke, coach-built Battista, crafted in Italy with passion for a dear friend.

"This one-off masterpiece embodies the pinnacle of design and engineering excellence, the result of a remarkable journey shared together. We are grateful to have brought this unique vision to life."
