Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce wore swanky Rolex watches at White House
The Chiefs players know how to dress up for a big occasion.
Everyone who took part in Monday’s visit to the White House was dressed to the nines, and many of them brought out their best watches.
Former Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster shared a video on Instagram stories that showed some of those watches. It’s in this Starcade video below (at the 1:15 mark).

That story said Mahomes was wearing “the platinum version of the Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 40 mm, while his tight end Kelce wore the yellow gold variation.”
According to the Rolex website, Mahomes’ watch includes a Presidential bracelet.
“As with all the components of the watch, aesthetic controls by the human eye guarantee impeccable beauty,” the website said. “The President bracelet, with its semi-circular three piece links, was created in 1956 for the launch of the Oyster Perpetual Day-Date. It represents the ultimate in refinement and comfort and is always made of carefully selected precious metals.”
Rolex’s website said the price of the watch is only available by request. But the Chrono24 website shows a new timepiece will cost at least $90,000.
Mahomes wore the same watch to Super Bowl LVII.

This is a description of the watch Kelce wore from Rolex’s website: “By operating its own exclusive foundry, Rolex has the unrivaled ability to cast the highest quality 18 kt gold alloys. According to the proportion of silver, copper, platinum or palladium added, different types of 18 kt gold are obtained: yellow, pink or white.
“They are made with only the purest metals and meticulously inspected in an in-house laboratory with state-of-the-art equipment, before the gold is formed and shaped with the same painstaking attention to quality. Rolex’s commitment to excellence begins at the source.”
This watch also has a Presidential Bracelet and, according to the Rolex website, costs $38,500.
