He might be going through some confusion as to whether he’s actually an American citizen or actually an upper-middle class estate owner from Cheshire, but wherever he’s from, 21 Savage is a hell of an artist and, like most hip-hop artists, he shows that off in his bling.
Like many of his rivals, 21 Savage boasts an iced-out pendant and chains to make Midas’ dungeon weep, but his real love is watches. Hell, he shows off his wrist candy every chance he gets – and it’s hard to blame him. When your most subtle timepiece just so happens to be a full yellow-gold Rolex Day-Date, music has been kind to you.
On top of that, he has a diamond-set version with a striking red dial and, if that weren’t enough, a seriously chunky, full rose gold Royal Oak. Sure it’s on the smaller side of the sports watches spectrum at 41mm but it’s still a solid 50K piece of horology – and it’s still got nothing on his watch collection’s crown jewel.
Patek Philippe Nautilus
A Patek Philippe is up there by anyone’s standards, but a Nautilus is enough to make any true collector weak at the knees. A fully diamond-set one? Well, quite a few would try and avoid it, but even so, it’s a seriously impressive bit of bling. Not a bad present to get from then-girlfriend Amber Rose. Good thing he got her one in return, too.
In fact, it seems to have started a passion for the almost impossibly sought-after Nautilus, given that he was also spotted flashing the perpetual calendar version. Far fewer diamonds (though a nicely set bezel, of course) but with a lot more horological heft behind it.
Whether 21 Savage was targeted by ICE remains to be seen. Perhaps they saw their opposite number on his wrist and took offence. Either way, he still has a long career ahead of him which likely means plenty of bling yet to bring into the light. Given what he already has, it may well be blinding.
