The average price is expected to be around $1,000 (at the current exchange rate that&#8217;s \u00a3666&#8230; although I&#8217;d imagine they&#8217;d try to avoid the satanic connotations of that price point!) and the watches represent different parts of his career.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The first collection is the Schwarzenegger Legend Collection which references his career in bodybuilding.

These watches were made from white gold and aluminium and cost upwards of \u00a314,000! However, both the MKI and MKII, are made from stainless steel and are going to be much more affordable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The design of the watches has been produced in conjunction with Jaguar to ensure that they closely resemble parts of the E-Type cars \u2013 for example, the numbered dial on the MKI only covers three-quarters of the clock face so that it resembles the displays on the E-Type dashboard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The MKI costs $10,950 (approx \u00a37,322.95) and the MKII costs $6,550 (approx \u00a34,380)&#8230;
