All marketing. Jacob probably gave that watch to drake for free for this exact photo. Jacob & Co. have been part of the flexing culture wayyy before social media.
The diamonds and colors really scream ladies watch but i'm not going to judge. It was probably just a fashion choice that had to be pricey as bling is the point.
100% he did not pay for that, he wears Jacob & co a lot because itโs free for him hence why he wears them sometimes to advertise
I agree. When you are industry unto yourself your reality changes. I'll have to go back to the story on the jeans. It seemed he laid out the cash.๐ Edit: consensus is that he didn't pay for them.

Yea those jeans are called โchrome heartsโ itโs a brand that rappers wear and people think itโs cool so they buy it. All advertisement lol. I live in NYC and lots of people here pay the $500-2k on Chrime hearts just because they see rappers wear it. Basically all followers
Believe it or not if you haven't seen them in person you will be surprised. My friend that I work for has a couple of them. I had the same feelings about them until seen in the flesh. He has one with diamonds and one without. They actually are a quality looking watch. I'd rather have his diamond bezel #breitling but if given to me I would wear it. Any of them. Then trade it for another Rolex. ๐
I think Jacob is under appreciated. The stuff that Jacob puts out is definitely insane BUT they are unique (usually finely detailed - including fine cut stone) and imaginative. We always complain about how people are just doing the same design over and over and over again. Jacob doesnโt do that.
Also, he has to be given credit, he was doing blinged out watches before it became a trend.
I could never afford, nor do I really want any of his watches. But man, if you ever get to see one up close, which Iโve seen in Vegas, they are very cool to stare at.

Not the target audience... and neither am I. I think it looks terrible and cheap as well.
Definitely made for rappers ๐
The 5 timezone watch was very successful for Jacob & Co around the turn of the century.

Clear evidence that fame and fortune can't buy you taste or class.
But each to their own. He must like it if he's wearing it?
Edit: apparently those jeans were special enough that he paid 50,000$ for them.๐คจ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐
Drake is the same as the rest of us; he wears what he likes. I hope he would only agree to wear something he actually likes.
And maybe sometimes he likes to blur lines and test attitudes. Pastel coloured flowers and diamonds on a man are avant garde.๐

Olivia burton written all over it.

Yeah I'll pass on that grass, for 22 grand I'll have a new retaining wall build, repave my driveway and other stuff to boost curb appeal of my house
Not to everyone taste for sure and not mine either, but if he likes it then fair enough. You cannot escape the fact that it for most it is horrible.
J&Co gaudy designs aside, I for one am turned off by their history money laundering for meth rings. And that's what they were caught doing.
