Fans have been left baffled by a video of UFC star Conor McGregor gushing over a custom Rolex watch.
McGregor, who is gearing up for his UFC return after almost a year away from the cage, is seen flaunting his own watch and shoes in the video before pointing the camera to another Rolex watch. The Irishman is clearly a fan of the iced-out superlative chronometer timepiece, which has sapphires ingrained in it.
Debating whether to buy the watch in the video, McGregor said: "Yeah course, don't worry about it. We've got this tasty, we've got tasty tasty and tasty tastiness," McGregor said as he pointed the camera at his watch, shoes and the other Rolex watch."
McGregor is known for being a big watch enthusiast and has splashed out over £2million on his collection of timepieces. The most expensive watch he owns is a Jacob & Co Astronomia Tourbillon, which retails for over £1m. He also owns one of 18 Jacob & Co. Astronomia Casino watches, which is worth £500,000.
Continuing to show off the watch, McGregor adds: "That's a tasty timepiece, what are those blue stones called mate? Sapphires? We've got the sapphires in the building. It's actually a real nice watch. If you would have come back to me a bit more with the price, I probably would have rocked into the gaff and just scooped that up. I'm into it, them blue yolks are tasty yeah, wee waa, wee waa. The sirens yeah, call the cops when you see C-Mac."
Fans have since weighed in on the video, with many being unable to understand what McGregor is saying about the watch. One user wrote: "Can’t understand a word," with another commenter adding: "Can anyone translate" and a third putting: "What is he saying?".

A fourth user gave their take by stating McGregor should have bought the watch, writing: "Tasty tasty and the tasty tastiness, hard choice you should probably rock them both". Another jokingly added: "Can I get one of them tasty watches for my upcoming birthday?"
McGregor has yet to return to full training after breaking his leg against Dustin Poirier last July and the former two-weight champion isn't expected to fight again until next year. He did show interest in fighting Kamaru Usman for the 170lb title, but Usman is now booked to defend his belt against Leon Edwards next month. McGregor was recently challenged to a welterweight fight by former lightweight champion Charles Oliveira.
