Watch The Throne Rolex Appears on Tumblr

by Alison Agudo

Last week’s highly anticipated release of Watch The Throne by hip-hop moguls Kanye West and Jay-Z is the most talk about album the music industry has seen in year and now a spectacular Rolex in celebration of the album release has been spotted.

The watch picture, which was posted on July 15^th, appeared on the Tumblr account of Kanye West’s art director Virgil Abloh. The timepiece has a special engraving that says, “W.T.T” on the caseback with “From Kanye and Jay” below.

The Watch The Throne album is well on its way to selling half a million copies just in the first week alone and is full of watch references, making the appearance of this Rolex quite appropriate.

The watch appears to be a Rolex GMT II with ceramic bezel and the engraving allegedly from Kanye and Jay-Z is sure to up the value of the already luxurious watch.
