- On The Rocks, take one!
Oh, that wasn't loud enough?
On The Rocks, take one!
[upbeat music]
My favorite piece on [mumbles].
It might be the Big Boy Amazing
with the rocket and the stars.
This was tough 'cause we had to make this two times
'cause at first we kinda miscommunicated on it.
We ended up putting up a jet.
This one, I played for the Jets.
So we had put a jet and then half of it behind was emeralds
and then everything else was diamonds.
But I wanted it to be how it is,
with the emeralds inside,
the amazing inside the star.
And I was like, you know like,
they call me Rocket Skates when I be taking off.
I wanted to put a rocket instead of a jet, you know?
So we had to redesign it.
It took a long time.
It took a while, like way longer than I expected.
I was getting impatient, getting mad.
You know, we bust down the side, like a hockey puck.
I always wanted a nice circle piece.
[upbeat music]
I really, really like the Sideshow Bob.
You know Sideshow Rob is me.
I'm Sideshow Rob
that's Sideshow Bob.
We've got the emeralds in the teeth,
micro pavé setting.
It's just dope, you know.
I don't know, I just really liked Sideshow Bob.
We resemble each other a lot, you know.
I really liked this pieces.
It's a signature piece
but I just designed this one, this rosary,
I liked this piece a lot too
'cause it's original.
And you know, growing up, I used to wear like
the little regular bead, black rosary sort.
Like now to put emeralds and diamonds in it, you know,
it's different.
I haven't really seen nobody with nothing like this.
[upbeat music]
I really liked my AP a lot.
We just did some surgery to it, added some emeralds.
I just really like, I didn't want to bust down the face
'cause I just really was into the blue dial on it,
thought it was dope and different.
And the crazy thing about this watch,
during the pandemic it's added a lot of value
because you know, I guess,
factories aren't making watches as much
and things like that.
So my jeweler, he really wanted to buy it back from me
since I've gotten this
'cause I got it for way cheaper
than what it's worth right now.
So, you know, normally they say
diamond watches don't hold their value and things like that.
But when you get good diamond watches and a good watch
there's possibility that it might add value.
[upbeat music]
This Quartz in,
this was the watch I got when I lost my first watch.
So this watch means a lot to me.
I don't think I'll ever get rid of this watch
even if I was tired of it.
But I lost my Rolex,
it's a long story, don't wanna talk about it.
I went to go see my jeweler
and I was just, I was devastated, like I was like upset.
'Cause it's like I just threw the money out the window
and it's just gone.
But he had that watch right there
and I fell in love with it
and it was somebody else was supposed to buy it
and I'm like, nah, bro, I need that watch right now.
Don't sell it to him.
Like just tell him, you'll get him another one.
And the band was originally black
and then I started seeing the watch more often,
I saw that they had different bands
so I got the red camo band.
I thought it stood out a little bit more.
So this watch, I like it a lot.
The rose gold in it, micro pave setting.
It's just the, it's a nice watch, you know.
It's not all the way bust down.
So it's like if you wearing something casual
you could throw it on,
but I wouldn't really wear
like a suit or nothing like with this
that's more so kind of why it have my Rolex.
[upbeat music]
You know, Rolex is a classic watch, grown man watch in.
I got it in rose gold with the the rose dial.
You know, rose gold is really my favorite color of gold.
I'm not really a yellow gold fan.
I liked yellow gold early on
but I think it's very common.
So I'm more of a rose gold fan, you know?
And I personally don't like bust down Rolex's,
me personally.
I like AP's bust down more, more of my preference on
and you know, just the grown man signature piece.
Like if I'm going out at the date with my girlfriend
or wearing something real casual,
like a suit or just on a grown man vibe,
I'll just throw on a rose gold Rollie
and then mixing in with the Cartier bracelet.
Nothing too major.
[upbeat music]
The Cartier bracelet, you know, the love bracelet,
you know it's just a nice thing,
I like to wear on the same wrist as my watch.
I don't have my other Cartier.
I got a nail diamond, nail bracelet, Cartier.
I didn't get it yet.
It's still being made.
But you know, it's just nice to throw on
with the watch you know.
Rose gold, rose gold, or I could mix it up.
I could wear it with all my other bracelets in here.
The bust down, Cuban bracelet, micro pave white
cause I got the white chain to match it with that
or mix it in with a bracelet.
You know, or go two rows bracelets
or the Beget bracelet too.
I wanted to get, you know, some Beget
since I had Begets in the pieces and in the watches
and things like that.
So just mix it all up.
Sometimes, maybe wear one with the other,
just one,
or wear them all together at once.
Just depends on the vibe of the day.
[upbeat music]
I only deal with one jeweler, Gabriel The Jeweler
based from, New Jersey, New York.
We gotta make sure we tag him so in Instagram.
To me he's got like best quality, you know.
You're gonna pay for what you get.
So if you pay cheap,
you're gonna get some cheap work quality.
But if you pay for what you want,
you're going to get what you want
and it's going to be worth it.
Hold its value and you know, dance.
Diamond's gonna be dancing.
[upbeat music]
This originally was the Cuban to go with the Amazing piece
but I kinda wanted to do something.
I wanted to do a two Cuban set sometimes
or I really wanted
to put the Amazing piece on a bigger chain,
but you know I got the all white micro pave.
This was custom made, you know,
this a special special set that Gabe does.
You know, he really stuffed the diamonds in there.
He has different sets.
As original, I had a prong
but I liked how the micro pave look,
it just, you know,
the diamonds sit a lot harder
'cause it's way more diamonds.
The prong, it has bigger, bigger stones in it
but it doesn't dance as hard to me.
So when he first showed me this chain last year
I kinda fell in love with it.
And then I just got this one,
big boy, 20 millimeter.
You know, I really liked this chain a lot, you know.
It just, I think it looks a lot better
with the Amazing piece in, you know.
It's just,
it's I could wear this by itself alone in it.
No piece, no nothing,
and it really stands out
and you know, looks real good.
And I feel like it fits me a little bit more.
The white one's more of like a,
kinda like, it's a chill, more chill chain.
I'll throw it on like and wear the Sideshow Bob
on the tennis on top of it
or something like that.
But the big boy, you know
I could just throw on and just rock out like that.
[upbeat music]
When I first thought I really liking jewelry
was like Young Thug for real.
Like he started rocking all like the tennis chains
and things like that.
Like Plies used to have those big pieces
being from Florida, things like that.
But growing up, I wasn't too much in the jewelry.
I always liked it and things like that
but I didn't pay too much attention to it
'cause it wasn't really something
that like I probably could get my hands on.
It was like unrealistic for me.
So I didn't really pay too much attention to it.
But as I was able to,
I started paying attention to like you know,
like, Young Thug, Future, Gucci Mane.
People like that rappers, you know,
obviously they got some of the best jewelry.
So saw like that,
kinda like influenced me with the jewelry in the sense.
Like jewelry cool whatever
but it's not like my motivation, like my drive.
So I ain't gonna,
you know work hard to just get a bunch of jewelry
and then, you know,
my house and my foundation, not in order.
