In 2011, Jay Z name-checked Swiss watch brand Hublot on the track “Otis”: “New watch alert; Hublots / Or the big face Rollie; I got two of those,” rhymes Jay on the track.
Now, two years later, Hov is getting a Hublot collection of his very own. Forbes reports that Jay and the company have partnered to launch “Shawn Carter by Hublot” Classic Fusion watches.
The watches come in either black ceramic or 18k yellow gold. The 45mm-wide watches contain Hublot HUB1300 manually-wound movement that has 90 hours of power reserve.
Jay and Hublot will launch the watch collection together with the Barney’s “A New York HOliday” shopping experience at the New York Store that the rapper has curated himself. The launch takes place on November 20.
The watches are limited edition, with 250 black ceramic and just 100 18k gold ones produced. Prices are $17,900 and $33,900 respectively.
The partnership is hardly the first product deal that has been foreshadowed by Jay Z’s lyrics. In 2007, GMC partnered with Jay to release the “Jay Z Blue” Yukon Denali SUV, referencing Jay’s lyric on Young Jeezy’s “Go Crazy” remix: “My favorite hue is Jay Z blue.”

Why the hell would you want a watch with Jay Z’s name on it?? He should of at least shortened it and called it ‘Carter’ to sound better. He’s getting carried away lol.. you start naming all different shit under your name.. the brand is gona reek of cheapness.
But I believe most of the deals are short term and not a long term business like a company that could run for decades
why are you giving business advice to a dude that’s worth 500 millions?
@Ghostly. You went to business school? Own your own business? Made millions with all your business ventures? If not, please just read the article and be a decent human being.
I dont need a fuckin business degree to realize how cheap and lame a product can be. I’m the fuckin customer!! So if anything, hes trying to appeal to me! And it aint, so stfu the pair of you.
Based on your grammar I doubt he is trying to appeal to you
$17,900 and $33,900 , don’t sound cheap and lame to me, but I guess you’re
more of a highroller than me; wait to see what the product looks like before
having an opinion
Click on the Forbes you will see the watch there… It’s crazy n ghostly can’t afford it in his life time.
