The commanding global appeal of sprint legend Usain Bolt remains in top gear after being the cover feature for noted Jewellery and celebrity magazine, “Something About Rocks.”

The feature, which appears in the Autumn issue, sees the Jamaican superstar converse about his style especially his relationship with jewellery brands.

“One thing we always try to do is to do our homework on every brand, to make sure it’s not just all about money. To make sure they’re aligned with how I want my image to be perceived. So, it’s something that we worked on with Hublot and we understand that they were an upcoming brand and they were doing big things.”

Bolt, who’s among a select set of sports stars sponsored by the luxury watch giant, also shared his favourite timepieces from the brand as he reflected on his longstanding partnership with the company.

“My favourite watch is the first one they gave me,” he shared with the publication, “A Big Bang with a strap made from my pair of spikes from Beijing in 2008.”
