Priced at P75,000 each, the watches are being sold as part of the POC Athletes’ Incentives Fund, a fundraising initiative aimed at supporting Filipino athletes.

“There is a limited opportunity to own physical memorabilia of this historic milestone in Philippine sports. Get yours early to secure your favorite number,” said POC secretary general Wharton Chan.

The high-end 42mm watch, available in black and white dials, also comes with an extra steel bracelet for added versatility. As of Thursday, only 50 pieces remain, according to the POC’s official page.

“This is your chance to be part of something truly special while contributing to the POC Athletes’ Incentives Fund,” the POC said in its announcement.

Beyond this initiative, Chan has led fundraising efforts for Paris Olympics’-bound athletes, including organizing two golf tournaments.

Additionally, with the approval of POC president Bambol Tolentino, he has been actively engaging with local government officials across the country to promote grassroots sports development.

One of his recent visits was to Lipa City, where he joined Mayor Eric Africa and the Lipa City Council in launching the construction of a world-class Olympic Center, further solidifying the POC’s commitment to nurture future Olympians.
