If you’ve been anywhere near Instagram lately, you’ve likely seen A$AP Rocky’s solid suits on your Explore Page. Largely because the rapper, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, has been in court in a nearly month-long trial relating to an altercation he had back in 2021. And on the day his not-guilty verdict was announced, Rocky figured the best way to celebrate would be to wear a legendary luxury sports UK perfect replica watches for the occasion.
If you’re a big-time fashion guy like Rocky, with runway Bottega Veneta and pristine Anthony Vaccarello for Saint Laurent suits at your disposal, you need an equally starry watch to finish off a look. For the rapper, this means a vintage 37.5 mm gold best copy Patek Philippe Nautilus ref 3800 watches with blue baton diald and date window.
This vintage belter was produced by high quality fake Patek Philippe watches between 1981 and 2006 as a smaller version of the 42mm 3700 – the Swiss watchmaker’s first luxury sports watch that dropped in 1976. The Nautilus is pretty shrouded in watch lore, with watch design god Gérald Genta supposedly drawing up the designs while observing Patek execs in a restaurant, inspired by the portholes on ocean liners.’
The 3800 was introduced in the ’80s to get more people into the Nautilus, when smaller UK cheap super clone watches were a prevailing trend, kind of like how it is now but with massive phones, more bling, and big hair. As well as the smaller case size, it also introduced a central seconds hand, adding extra functionality as well as small-watch sexiness. And with Rocky’s belted macs, double-breasted suits, and leather ties, his vintage Patek grail only added to the ’80s vibe of the fit.
40 years ago, the 3800 was the ultimate yuppie status symbol; it was rare, gold, and expensive. Now it’s a sought-after collectors’ grail – the kind that develops a highly desirable patina on the dial, aging like your favourite shearling jacket and leaving wealthy collectors ready drop huge amounts of cash. It makes sense. This is Patek Philippe, one of the most prestigious and exclusive watchmakers in the world, who produce significantly fewer Swiss made replica watches per year than some of its high-end competitors. So getting your hands on this level of grail is going to come at a cost.
A$AP Rocky might have been cleared on his charges, but with a banger like the 3800 on his wrist, he’ll happily of pleaded guilty of rocking a glorious online fake Patek Philippe grail watches before the jury.
