Zach challenges tennis champ Daniil Medvedev for his Bovet Récital 30 watch
Time+TideFormer ATP tennis world No. 1, 2021 US Open champion, and Bovet ambassador Daniil Medvedev gets challenged by Time+Tide Editor Zach Blass in a tennis match for his stunning Récital 30 watch. Well… Not tennis, but table tennis, where Zach’s odds of victory increased from a zero per cent chance to a two per cent chance. At 6’6″, Medevedev is the tallest-ever world number one tennis player in the history of the game, and with his sizeable wingspan, it is definitely not easy for Zach to get one past him.
Between forehands and backhands, Medvedev shares insights about his passion for Bovet watches, his experiences, and advice for aspiring tennis players. Medvedev also discusses his partnership with the watch brand Bovet and reveals his favourite complications, including the ability of his Récital 30 wolrdtimer watch to display multiple time zones (including New Delhi) — a practical feature for his travels as a professional athlete. He reflects on the importance of loving the game for anyone wanting to pursue tennis and emphasises the need for resilience and a trustworthy team for success. And as Zach tires in their ping pong duel, against the proverbial ropes, a significant substitute player valiantly enters the mix. You will need to watch the video to see who.
