Rick Ross displays his $20 million, 129 carat diamond-encrusted watch.
Through his Instagram, Rick Ross boldly displays his lavish lifestyle and his penchant for extravagance in all facets of his life. The rapper’s online gallery acts as a luxury exhibition, documenting his opulent activities, whether it’s revealing the acquisition of his most recent private plane or providing tantalizing glances of the pricey cars intended for his impending car exhibition.
Ross’s love of excess, however, reaches unmatched heights in the world of horology and jewelry, as evidenced by his recent social media post showcasing his Jacob & Co. Billionaire watch, a work of art studded with an astounding abundance of diamonds, along with a pair of extravagant diamond-encrusted pinky rings.
Ross shared a variety of lavish jewels on his April 5th Instagram update in a regular display of opulence. The second image reveals the center of the visual richness, along with endorsements for Villon and demonstrations of excellent spirits like Luc Belaire Rare Luxe Brut, a limited-edition McQueen Violet Fog gin, and The Deacon scotch whiskey.
This close-up shot reveals Ross’s wrist adorned with the white-gold marvel, the Billionaire III timepiece, complemented by colossal diamond-studded pinky rings adorning each hand, all masterpieces hailing from the esteemed Jacob & Co.
Notably, Ross’s outfit has featured the Billionaire III watch on numerous occasions over the past few years, each time inspiring amazement with its gem-encrusted grandeur and representing an astounding $3 million in value. 75 emerald-cut white diamonds are arranged in a constellation on the watch’s 54x40mm 18-carat white gold case.
The inner ring is further adorned with 76 white diamonds, and the bridges are further adorned with 57 white baguette-cut diamonds. The watch’s crown is made up of a single 1-carat rose-cut white diamond, and the matching bracelet, which is also made of 18-karat white gold, is painstakingly set with 504 emerald-cut white diamonds.
The combined result is a stunning outfit weighing over 129 carats in diamonds, all of which have been painstakingly set utilizing a “invisible setting” method that deftly hides the underlying support structure.
Anti-reflective sapphire crystals cover the watch’s front and back surfaces, allowing clear views of its sophisticated mechanisms. A skeletonized 60-second tourbillon movement with exposed gears and mechanisms is housed inside this watchmaking marvel.
Ruthenium-coated skeletonized hands that indicate the hour and minute bear witness to the painstaking craftsmanship at work. This watch is the epitome of haute horlogerie and also acts as a genuine objet d’art, a symbol of Ross’s love of flaunting his affluent lifestyle.
It begs the question of whether the rapper’s climb to even greater heights might be aided by things like the $20 million yellow gold Billionaire Timeless Treasure, a recent invention of Jacob & Co.
