Drake’s Patek Philippe Aquanaut


Drake got a new watch and unlike the last one that made headlines this one is not rated NC-17 and does not require the bleeping of any bad words. It is simply a very good watch: a Patek Philippe Aquanaut with a 30-minute chronograph feature and a funky-for-Patek radiant orange rubber strap. The watch made its debut early last year, an orange-shaded olive branch to a young generation of watch collectors—and multi-platinum recording artists, apparently. Like this watch’s sporty cousin, the Nautilus, it’s not possible to just walk into a Patek Philippe and buy an Aquanaut. It appears that Drake got his from his longtime jeweler Dave Bling, who posted a photo of the pair and the new watch. Prices for the orange-strapped version of the piece are selling for close to $100,000 on the secondary market, almost double what it would be at retail were it available. Also this week: big watch on big man, a new customized-for-a-designer piece, and Bernie Sanders!
