Isaya Yunge turned heads at his wedding to Charlene Ruto, but it was not just the cream suit doing the talking.
A photo shared by groomsman Andre Awili after the ceremony zeroed in on the groom's wrist, revealing a rose-gold timepiece with a black dial, Roman numerals and a fluted bezel consistent with a Rolex Day-Date 40, reference 228235.
Andre captioned the post, which showed two wrists in a fist-bump pose: "Groom be Killin it cos it's his time #time #rolex #amazing." The top wrist, in a cream suit sleeve believed to be Isaya's, wore the rose-gold Rolex. The lower wrist, in a black suit, wore a two-tone Tissot with a white dial, believed to be Andre's.

Rolex has not independently confirmed what Isaya paid for the timepiece, and the exact reference cannot be verified from the photo alone. What is on record is the market value of a watch of this type.
The Day-Date 40 in 18kt Everose gold, ref. 228235-0055, carries an official retail price of $54,200, roughly KSh 7 million at current exchange rates.
