So I've been following Post Malone for quite some time and his watches and I wanna say
that three years ago, about three years ago, I remember I saw that interview on GQ, where
he pretty much had shown two watches that he had, so he was gifted by his manager a
stainless steel Deepsea, which I think he'll soon notice that that watch is a bit uncomfortable
but nevertheless such a timeless gift.
I also realize that he had a Day-Date II yellow 41 millimeter, with a factory diamond dial
and it appears to be in my opinion the pictures are after market bezel, which is fine too.
The watch is good, clean, big face, but from there, he's dramatically made some moves in
both his career and his watch collection.
So although I might not completely agree with all the tattooed choices he has made, I can
definitely agree with where he's gone with his watch collection.
So after Post had that Day-Date II yellow, I feel like it was right around the time in
2016-17 where these trends were hot.
So the guy from there went straight to an AP 15400 all iced out.
You see him many times with that, also with a Day-Date II yellow all iced out or bust-down,
however you wanna call it.
He also had the 5980 two tone all iced out in t hat era that was really what was cranking
hard.
Three to two years ago that's what was hot, everybody was wearing it and he was not left
behind.
So I had noticed that he had all those watches and he was wearing and I was like, “OK,”
you know, the guy likes watches.
But where I feel like he really started to make that next step and I guess he just, you
go through phases.
Watch collecting is like a phase and a journey and you go chancing up your ideas.
So when I really noticed he was getting serious about his watches is when I saw him with an
AP stainless steel 15400 with the black dial.
There's a famous picture of him with Gwen Stefani, and he's wearing this green suit,
weird looking suit, but nevertheless a suit, and he has a 15400 on, stainless steel black
dial and that's when I said, “Alright, maybe Postee is maturing here,” you know?
So that was that breakout watch where I feel that he went away from the ultra-trendy stuff
and went more to the serious Watch Game stuff.
After that famous picture with Gwen Stefani, I noticed he took an interesting turn.
I don't really agree with that, but he was wearing a Hublot Spirit of Big Bang, I think
it's the the perpetual calendar or what not, but it's like pink, with pink diamonds.
I mean, look, he's like a weirdo rock star and he's got his own style in his own lane
and that's fine.
I mean, he did it, but that was kind of like, “Whoa!”
I don't know, he was just maybe experimenting, but whatever.
We can definitely say Hey he's moved on beyond that because then after that he was seen with
much more serious pieces.
He broke out with a Patek 5167 Aquanaut in stainless steel with the rubber strap, again
probably seems more like a beater for him, but it was definitely an acquired selection,
not just anybody goes and buys that watch.
Then more fitting than the Spirit of Big Bang in my opinion for him was he busted out the
Daytona rose gold Rainbow.
You see, now we're getting into the heavy hitter territory.
The guy definitely started jumping into the $200,000+ in watches and that's when I think
Post Malone really started to step it up.
From there, it only got crazier.
He went to a Patek 5968A, which is a great watch.
It's the chrono, big face, Aquanaut.
I mean at that point maybe he just traded in the 5167 for it.
That's what I would have done in my opinion, but then he really got loose.
All hell broke loose.
He then went to a 5905, which is a platinum annual calendar chrono, which is a very gentlemen's
selection watch.
I said, “Wow, look at that!”
He's either got somebody that's guiding him in the right direction or maybe the guy's
doing his reading and he's really doing his homework.
From there I think the big watch that I really made me do the jaw drop was the 5719, factory
diamond set with baguettes, which is pretty much 5711 Patek.
You see now we're talking.
That's a heavy watch, high, high retail.
We're talking some crazy numbers.
That already to me put it in a whole nother level man.
I mean, that was already when I said, “This guy is really getting into watches.”
When I really realized that he was getting deep into this watch collecting hobby and
I though, maybe I should do a review, is when I started seeing him bust out the RMs.
The first RM that I saw him with was an RM55 white Bubba Watson.
Might have been his first taste, whatever, getting into the brand, see how it feels.
From there, the guy went loose.
He ended up with an RM52 Skull Tourbillon, which those watches are untouchable to retails.
Five hundred thousand plus.
We're going into deep, deep terrain there, but it wasn't his first tourbillon.
From there, he also went into an RM12, which is also a cool watch that you don't see a
lot.
Some of the smaller, slimmer tourbillons, but the one that really for me said “that's
it, I'm doing a review and we'll give him a score,” is when he came out with the RM27-01
with the white case.
Love that watch and nothing says that he has more dedication than an RM27 Rafael Nadal.
I mean, you really have gone off into the deep end.
So, what really for me says the most about this collection is how fast it escalated.
In 2017, the guy was still just buying his first AP 15400 diamond, which everybody was
jumping into that trend.
It was only three years ago, he did that GQ interview, where he had that Rolex Deepsea
and that Day-Date II!
So, that all being said, being that he has these watches and that they've accumulated
so fast, I'm gonna go ahead and give Post a score of a 7.5, and there's no doubt that
perhaps maybe in another 6 months to a year, he might go all the way to a 9 if he keeps
going at the rate that he's going.
So while Post continues to drop chart topping smash hits, we're gonna continue to closely
look at his collection and see if perhaps he jumps into the real of the 10s.
