Here are some highlights from his carefully curated watch collection.
1. Lange Datograph
After the fall of the Berlin Wall in the 1990s, the famous German brand Lange began to revive, and Jordan became one of the first people to buy a Lange watch.
While the Saxony-based watchmaker may not achieve the same global recognition as Swiss companies like Rolex due to its limited annual production, it is highly regarded in the world of fine watchmaking. Collectors and connoisseurs often regard A. Lange & Söhne’s unique and elusive timepieces as the “holy grail” of their complex in-house movements.

Over the years, Jordan was often seen wearing the A. Lange & Söhne Datograph. This particular chronograph, known for its signature oversized date display, is worth approximately $100,000, according to watch accessories store Ifl Watches.
2. Customized “Chicago Bulls” Urwerk
Another little-known gem among niche watchmakers, Urwerk is a contemporary luxury Swiss brand known for its avant-garde, futuristic designs and innovative approach. Its timepieces are known for their complex, unconventional displays.
Jordan appears to have several of Urwerk’s space-age creations in his collection, including models UR-103, UR-202, UR-220 and UR202S, as well as miami vice– GQ-inspired pieces sell for about $150,000.
However, Jordan’s jeweled crown is his customized Urwerk. According to Dmarge, this unique watch is especially meaningful, with red accents and the number 23 (his Chicago Bulls jersey number) engraved with gold Roman numerals.
3. Athens Royal Blue Tourbillon
Another choice for Jordan’s deep knowledge of luxury watches, the Swiss brand Ulysse Nardin is a sophisticated and somewhat unexpected choice for collectors.
