However, a closer look at Leo XIV’s watch dispelled the rumors. Instead of a high-end luxury model, the pope’s choice turned out to be far more modest—a Wenger 70903 Military Ranger. This watch, produced in the 1990s, is known for its practical design and distinctive red bezel. It features a stainless steel case, quartz movement, and reliable durability—qualities that have made it popular among those who value function over fashion.
The watch is currently out of stock, but it was previously sold for $115—a stark contrast to the six-figure price tags mentioned in earlier speculation.
Observers note that the choice of such a humble watch accurately reflects the pope’s personality, known within the clergy for his directness and lack of ostentation. The accessory has become a symbol of simplicity, service, and openness.
