Of Course Rick Ross Bought That Bonkers $20 Million Yellow Gold Jacob & Co. Watch for Billionaires

The brand said the creation of the watch nearly dried up the market for yellow diamonds.

Rick Ross frequently flaunts expensive goods on social media, but his most recent purchase is unmatched. 

The Boss tried on a $20 million, unmatched Jacob & Co. watch on Monday. “I’m thrilled. It’s incredible. He stated, “And just thanks for getting it to the city so I can try it on,” in a FaceTime conversation with Jacob Arabo, the chairman and creator of the business. “The Billionaire is here.” The watch, known as the Billionaire Timeless Treasure, was originally displayed to the public in March of this year during the Watches & Wonders exposition in Geneva, Switzerland. The jewelry firm in America produced it on spec.

The history of the watch is like to a fairy tale: it took three and a half years for the manufacturer to get enough yellow diamonds of the same quality and color. The item needed to be coated on the bracelet, bezel, dial, and crown, therefore ten workers had to sort through all the gems. On the Jacob & Co. website, it is stated that the market was almost completely shut down due to the global hunt for enough quality yellow diamonds. 

After the gems were extracted from their rough state, 425 Asscher-cut diamonds weighing slightly less than 217 carats were created. In addition, the watch’s mechanism is encircled with 76 vivid green, emerald-cut, and kite-cut tsavorites. A happy face is etched in the letter “o” to represent the word “billionaire,” which you can see move through the sapphire caseback if you turn the watch over.

“I think that’s a really lovely thing. It’s a lovely occasion. “What a fantastic timepiece,” the rapper exclaimed. This is not replicable. It is impossible to duplicate this. 

Ross has previously been seen wearing a Jacob & Co. Billionaire watch. The rapper shared a few expensive goods earlier this year, including a white-gold Billionaire III watch. The $3 million watch has 75 emerald-cut white diamonds and an 18-carat white gold case. In case that wasn’t enough, the rapper accessorized the watch with sizable diamond pinky rings from the same brand, each adorned with a dazzling jewel.
