The discussions about the performance of star Neeraj Chopra, who won the silver medal for India in the Paris Olympics, have not stopped. Meanwhile, the eyes of the world have stopped on his watch. It is being said that during the Olympics the player was wearing a watch worth lakhs of rupees. Chopra had won the javelin throw silver medal at a distance of 89.45 meters. Whereas, Arshad Nadeem of Pakistan had won the gold.
According to media reports, a Reddit user had started a discussion on social media about this watch. He said, ‘Can anyone tell which watch Neeraj Chopra was wearing in the final of the 2024 Paris Olympics?’ To this another user replied that it was an Omega watch, which costs more than Rs 52 lakh. Chopra was said to be wearing the Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Ultralight. However, Chopra has not said anything officially regarding this.
According to a Times of India report, this model has also been confirmed by luxury watch retailer Kapoor Watch Company. This watch has been manufactured by Swiss manufacturer Omega. The special thing is that this year itself the company has made Neeraj Chopra its brand ambassador.
Neeraj Chopra’s return home delayed, went to Germany to consult doctor
Chopra has flown to Germany to seek medical advice regarding possible surgery and a decision on whether to compete in the upcoming Diamond League competitions after winning the silver medal at the Paris Olympics. Sources gave this information. A family source told PTI that he has left for Germany and is unlikely to return to India for at least a month. Indian Olympic Association (IOA) sources in Paris also confirmed that Neeraj has left for Germany.
“Chopra has left for Germany and will not return to India for the next one and a half month,” a family source told PTI. He said, ‘I don’t know much but definitely he will consult a doctor there (Germany).’ After winning at the Paavo Nurmi Games in Finland in June, Neeraj had said that he would consult doctors after the Paris Olympics regarding his injury.
He won the World Championships in 2023 with a groin injury. Before the Paris Olympics this year, he took a break of more than a month due to an adductor muscle problem. Twenty-six-year-old Neeraj had earlier consulted a doctor in Germany for his injury.
