[Saba Sports News] Eight watches previously owned by F1 legend Michael Schumacher were recently auctioned in Geneva, Switzerland, fetching a total of over 4 million Swiss francs. The collection included prestigious brands such as Rolex, FP Journe, and Audemars Piguet. The highest-priced watch was the F.P. Journe Vagabondage 1, gifted to Schumacher by Ferrari team principal Todt in 2004 to commemorate his F1 championships. This exclusive timepiece was specially customized with 18K white gold, a red dial, and featured images of the Ferrari logo, Schumacher’s racing helmet, and the number 7, symbolizing his seven world championships. Schumacher, who suffered a serious brain injury in a skiing accident in 2013, continues to receive private care at home in Switzerland while remaining in a coma.
