Naomi Osaka unveiled a new liminteid edition model fo TAG Heuer's Aquaracer watch but she wan'ts allowed to wear it in Melbourne.
If you wonder why Osaka wasn't allowed to wear the latest watch during her Australian Open matches, it's because the Aquaracer falls under the category of communication devices. Players are not allowed to communicate with others off the court during their matches so that's why the Australian Open organizers didn't let Osaka take the court with the newest Tag Heuer watch.
TAG Heuer CEO Frederic Arnault said:
“We tried, but she cannot wear any connected watch while playing professionally, because players aren’t allowed to communicate with others off the court during a match. And this would be considered a communication device."

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
