Rick Ross shows off his $20 million watch set with 129 carats of diamonds.
Rick Ross flaunts his extravagant lifestyle and love of luxury in all areas of his life on Instagram. The rapper’s web gallery serves as a lavish exhibition, showcasing his extravagant endeavors, such as disclosing the purchase of his most recent private jet or offering tantalizing peeks at the expensive vehicles he plans to display in an upcoming car show.
But when it comes to watches and jewelry, Ross’s love of excess is unrivaled. This is demonstrated by a recent social media post in which he showed off his exquisitely detailed Jacob & Co. Billionaire watch, which is adorned with an incredible amount of diamonds, as well as two ostentatious pinky rings.
Ross regularly displays his richness on Instagram, and on April 5th, he displayed a selection of extravagant diamonds. The centerpiece of the visual richness is depicted in the second image, which also features promotions for Villon and taste tests of premium alcoholic beverages such as Luc Belaire Rare Luxe Brut, a special edition McQueen Violet Fog gin, and The Deacon scotch whiskey.
In this close-up, Ross’s wrist is adorned with the magnificent white-gold Billionaire III watch, which is complimented by enormous pinky rings set with diamonds on each hand. These works of art are all from the prestigious Jacob & Co.
Significantly, during the past few years, Ross’s ensemble has frequently displayed the Billionaire III watch, which consistently astounds with its opulence adorned with gems and commands an incredible $3 million in worth. The watch’s 18-carat white gold 54x40mm case is set with a constellation of 75 emerald-cut white diamonds.
There are additional 76 white diamonds set into the inner ring and an additional 57 white baguette-cut diamonds set into the bridges. One 1-carat rose-cut white diamond makes up the watch’s crown, and 504 emerald-cut white diamonds are meticulously fitted into the matching 18-karat white gold bracelet.
All of the diamonds in the exquisite ensemble weigh over 129 carats, and they have all been painstakingly placed using a “invisible setting” technique that expertly conceals the underlying support structure.
The watch’s front and rear surfaces are covered in anti-reflective sapphire crystals, which make its intricate mechanisms visible. This masterpiece of watchmaking contains a skeletonized 60-second tourbillon movement with exposed gears and components.
The minute and hour are indicated by skeletonized hands coated in ruthenium, which is testament to the laborious craftsmanship involved. This watch is the pinnacle of haute horlogerie and serves as a true work of art, a representation of Ross’s passion for showing off his luxurious lifestyle.
It raises the issue of whether items like the $20 million yellow gold Billionaire Timeless Treasure, a relatively new creation of Jacob & Co., could have contributed to the rapper’s ascent to even greater heights.
