Javier Matías Pastore is a very young professional football talent from Argentina who currently plays with the Italian Serie A club Palermo. He will play in the Argentina national team during the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa.

Born in Córdoba, Argentina in 1989, Javier developed his particular playing style at a young age. His professional youth career started in Talleres, the team he was always fan of.

In 2008, he joined the first league Argentina team Huracán, but it was in 2009 when he joined the Italian team Palermo that his international career really began. Following a string of good performances in his first season at Italian Serie A level , Argentina head coach Diego Maradona decided to call up Pastore for national squad duty.

Just before leaving for South Africa, Pastore paid a visit to the Concord official retailer Joyería Danfer in Buenos Aires, where he was presented with the latest models of the C1 Collection by their Sales Director, Mr. Facundo Gallo.

After hesitating between various models, his choice finally rested on the stainless steel and white rubber chronograph, C1 Pure.

This C1 Chronograph is presented in a 44 mm stainless steel case made of 53 elements, standing 16.70 mm tall. A metal protective ring coated in white rubber and fixed laterally by 7 self-blocking screws is enhanced by eight decorative elements straddling the bezel. These bastions protect a spectacular 3.30 mm thick sapphire crystal, which literally emerges from the case and displays a 3-layer white fiber-glass like dial with its distinctive Concord seconds disk. This timepiece, holding a mechanical, self-winding Valgranges movement with a 48-hour power reserve, is certified by the official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC). It is presented on a white rubber strap with folding clasp and is water-resistant to a pressure of 20 ATM.
