Jaeger-LeCoultre is official timekeeper for British Polo Day
The British Polo Day held in the Blue City, Jodhpur, is a platform for the world’s most dynamic individuals, hosted by Indian Royalty
Legendary Swiss watchmaker Jaeger-LeCoultre was official timekeeper at the British Polo Day event held recently in Jodhpur, India. British Polo Day celebrates the heritage and history of polo on a global platform that includes top companies, prominent guests, including key figures in government, the aristocracy, diplomats, military, art and popular culture, and fashion.
Hosted by His Highness the Maharaja Gaj Singh II of Marwar-Jodhpur, British Polo Day celebrated its 71st global event in India. Guests were treated to the colours and vibrancy of Rajasthan, staying at the Umaid Bhawan Palace, voted number one hotel in India by Condé Nast in 2016. Over 100 top British and international players have played at British Polo Day since its inception, and this year was no different, with names such as former England Captain and Royal Salute World Polo Ambassador Malcolm Borwick and His Highness Maharaja Sawai Padmanabh Singh of Jaipur, known to his friends as ‘Pacho’, gracing the field.
A grand total of £38,000 was raised for Head Injuries Through Sport, a charity close to the heart of British Polo Day.
