The DJ does not hesitate to show off close-up photos of his watch collection worth millions of dollars.
Known for his chart-topping music, DJ Khaled always openly expresses appreciation for the good things in life.
With a personal fortune valued at $75 million USD, the DJ born in 1975 has the capability to indulge in extravagance. For instance, multimillion-dollar beachfront mansions, a collection of Rolls-Royce cars, or personalized jewelry.
Fans have often seen him adorned with luxurious timepieces from Rolex, Audemars Piguet, Patek Philippe… SCMP has highlighted some of the most valuable models in DJ Khaled’s collection.
Back in March, Khaled posted a short video clip on his personal page. In it, the male DJ wore a diamond-studded ring on his finger. However, what stood out more was the sparkling diamond watch, another version of the Jacob & Co. Billionaire III. But this new design has a gold bezel and strap instead of silver. SCMP noted that the watch is not commonly available to the public. Therefore, it is truly priceless. (Photo: @djkhaled)
In fact, Khaled once owned the Jacob & Co. Billionaire III. He wore this watch on the red carpet at the 2022 Oscars. The wrist accessory had a white gold strap, covered with 713 diamonds. Among them, 504 18k diamonds were horizontally set to form the strap, while 209 diamonds were embedded as the watch case. Altogether, the Billionaire III weighs over 129 carats, showcasing the luxury the watch brand brings. Therefore, it’s no surprise that the product is priced at $3 million USD, making it the most expensive piece in Khaled’s collection. (Photo: Wrist Enthusiast)
In addition to the Billionaire III, Khaled also acquired another diamond watch from Jacob & Co., priced at $1 million USD. It’s the Astronomia Tourbillon Baguette model in white gold, a miniature embodiment of class and sophistication. Since its debut, this space-themed product has made waves in the watch world. Khaled’s version is adorned with 133 triangle-cut white diamonds, with a total weight of approximately 16.80 carats. The product is produced in limited quantities, with only 18 pieces available.
The music mogul also owns several Patek Philippe watches, particularly the Nautilus model. His collection includes one bearing the reference number 5719/10G-010, valued at $800,000 USD. This accessory is also known as the “Chandelier,” released to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Nautilus line. True to its name, the watch shines with 255 diamonds on the dial and 3 hour markers, encased in white gold. DJ Khaled chose the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5719/10G-010 for its quality and design. Its stunning design and renowned reputation have made the Nautilus 5719/10G-010 one of the most iconic timepieces of 2023.
The Daytona “Eye of the Tiger” ref. 116588TBR reflects DJ Khaled’s vibrant personality. Made of 18k rose gold, the watch case is adorned with diamonds, adding allure to the product. In fact, this accessory, valued at $215,000 USD, helped Khaled make it onto the list of the most impressive watch-wearing stars at the 2023 Grammy Awards.
The black dial features a tiger-shaped motif in gold and diamonds, accompanied by a black rubber strap. The bezel is set with 36 trapeze-cut diamonds. Even the hour markers are adorned with this precious stone.
The Rolex Day-Date Ref. M228206-0025 with an Arabic numeral calendar dial is one of the most sought-after watch models on the market. The combination of a navy blue dial with Arabic numerals makes the watch truly desirable. Crafted from white gold, it features the renowned President-style bracelet by Swiss artisans. The watch was handpicked and repurchased for the DJ by Khaled’s long-time jewelers – Pristine Jewellers – for approximately $80,000 USD. However, this accessory is currently priced at around $150,000 USD and has ceased production.
Khaled’s collection also includes several Royal Oaks from Audemars Piguet. During his first visit to Paris, France, in early 2023, he wore the Royal Oak “Rainbow” Frosted Gold Double Balance Wheel Openworked ref. 15412BA. The case and bracelet, made of 18k frosted gold, sharply contrast with the gray slate movement. The rainbow bezel, adorned with multicolored gemstones, adds a luminous effect. IFL Watches estimated the value of this watch to be $700,000 USD.
