Think you give good gifts? Ever spend $1.3M on your mates? Thought so. But if you play soccer for the Cameroon squad that just secured a spot in the World Cup Finals by beating Morocco 2-0, you would find yourself on the receiving end of a $42,000 watch courtesy of teammate Samuel Etoo. Of course, the team from Africa has yet to actually win the final itself. We suppose the card will read something along the lines ofGreat work on a job nearly done. The outspoken Etoo told a French A Lange & Sohne Lange 1 LS1320 watches television station "You remember that watch I gave to Usain Bolt in the summer? If we qualify I will give one to each of my team-mates, with a dedication from me inscribed on the back." We give credit for good on those words, even if a tad shameless. Respect where its due though as this skilled striker can certainly back up his image with a high level of play as the captain of the Cameroon team.The watch itself (seen to the left) happens to be from Etoos own jewelry line known as Etoo World. His Ref. E watches are all fitted with the cal. FD3041 Tourbillon A Lange & Sohne Lange 1 LS1320 watches movement and come with an assortment of case metals (SS and Rose Gold) and decoration (256 Diamond Bezel anyone?). Who says an act of kindness and brilliant marketing have to be two separate things? The freshly blinged out Cameroon team will appear in their first World Cup Finals match against Japan on June 14th as a member of playing group E.
