N.O.R.E says before he buys a watch, he reaches out to his friend Jay-Z because he trusts his guidance when it comes to watches.
The rapper-turned-podcaster recently appeared on the Wrist Check podcast and talked about why he trusts Hova’s suggestions.
“I won’t buy a watch unless I speak to certain people,” he said. “JAY-Z’s top of the list. He does not answer me all the time.”
“But I think that’s respect. I think that if he doesn’t like the watch, he won’t say, ‘N.O.R.E., don’t do that.’ He’s too rich and too smart and too fly. […] When I got the Nautilus, and when I got the Aquanaut, I sent him both pictures. And his exact words were, ‘Get both them bi****!’”

Jay-Z was spotted last summer wearing a $7 million Patek Philippe at Michael Rubin’s Fourth of July party, HipHopDX reported.
“JAY-Z wore his vintage yellow gold Patek Philippe reference 2499,” professional pocket-watcher and watch connoisseur Chad Alexander said in a TikTok video. “One of these in rose gold recently sold at an auction for $7.7 million.”
