Now you can own a personal piece of Martina Navratilova's Wimbledon history—and it comes with major strings attached.

Luxury watch-maker Avantist unveiled the Martina Navratilova Wimbledon 1987—a limited-edition watch—in the Fairway Village at the All England Club.

Watch: Clijsters On Three Tennis Life Lessons

The string from the match-winning racquet Navratilova wielded defeating Steffi Graf in the 1987 Wimbledon final is now set into the dials of the limited edition timepieces.

Avantist says only 30 of the Navratilova Wimbledon 1987 watches will be made. Each watch is numbered and signed by Navratilova.

In 1987, Navratilova raised the Rosewater Dish for the sixth straight year. 

These are the first of the brand's Legend Series to be presented to the public.

Of course, Grand Slam history comes at a significant cost.



The Martina Navratilova Wimbledon 1987 retail price starts from about $10,400 (£8,000) with customers offered the option to personalize their watch through enhancements including the addition of precious stones around the bezel and strap options.



Avantist says a pre-order sale "generated the purchase of 20% of the watch stock."
