Tennis legend and Rolex brand ambassador Roger Federer rocked a Rolex Daytona next to Rafael Nadal during Louis Vuitton’s latest ad campaign shot by renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz.
The newly released campaign features the tennis champions in a “rare off-the-court pairing, ascending to the summit of Italy’s Dolomites mountain range,” according to Louis Vuitton. Besides the white-gold Daytona on Federer’s wrist, the tennis players were sporting LV bags.
For the campaign, Nadal and Federer are “not competitors but instead companions for one another on the journey up the mountain — a visual metaphor for their careers,” the luxury brand said. Federer’s meteorite-dial Daytona sits prominently on his wrist while it’s unclear if the Spaniard is wearing a Richard Mille, a brand with which he’s had a partnership.
