During a recent livestream, Ben put some serious wrist candy on display, including two Richard Milles, a black ceramic Audemars Piguet Skeleton and a Patek Philippe Aquanaut.
Before flexing his own pieces, Ben had already made an expensive purchase for someone close to him.
The internet personality revealed that he bought Drake a rare Rolex for his milestone birthday on October 24. The watch, reportedly costing over $200,000, is said to feature rubies, baguette-cut diamonds, and a pavé Roman-numeral dial. The flashy timepiece is believed to be an off-catalog Rolex, a category of exclusive, factory-produced watches not typically available through the brand’s regular collection. Its exact reference has not been independently confirmed.
The gift came with an interesting backstory. According to a recap of Ben’s livestream comments, Drake specifically told his close friends that he didn’t want birthday gifts. Instead, the rapper reportedly wanted to celebrate turning 40 surrounded by the people he loves.
Ben apparently had other plans and decided a six-figure Rolex was still the perfect birthday present.
Days later, the attention turned to the BenDaDonnn watch collection itself, with the streamer showcasing an impressive lineup of luxury timepieces reportedly worth more than $2 million combined.
One of the biggest standouts was the black ceramic Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked, better known as the AP Skeleton. Featuring an all-black ceramic case and bracelet, the watch exposes its intricate mechanical movement through an openworked dial. The model is highly sought after by collectors and can command six figures on the resale market.

Then came the Richard Mille RM 67-02 Mutaz Barshim, a lightweight luxury sports watch associated with Olympic high jumper Mutaz Essa Barshim. The colorful purple and white design features advanced composite materials and titanium, weighing just 32 grams. Despite its lightweight construction, the RM 67-02 can carry a secondary-market price reaching hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The BenDaDonnn watch collection also features a Richard Mille RM 005, one of the Swiss watchmaker’s earlier automatic models. First introduced in 2004, the RM 005 is recognized for its curved case, visible mechanical components, and adjustable winding rotor. It’s another expensive addition that shows Ben isn’t limiting himself to Richard Mille’s newer releases.
Rounding out the lineup is a Patek Philippe Aquanaut, one of the brand’s most recognizable sports watches. Introduced in 1997, the Aquanaut is known for its rounded octagonal case, textured dial, and distinctive strap. Although Ben’s exact reference hasn’t been confirmed, the model is another major addition to his collection.
With all four watches included, the reported $2 million-plus valuation puts the BenDaDonnn watch collection among the more extravagant lineups being showcased by online entertainers. However, the exact total hasn’t been independently appraised, and individual values depend on the models, materials, and current resale market.
As for Drake, the rapper already owns several extraordinary timepieces, including his one-of-one Ice Gradient Rolex Daytona. That watch features blue sapphires, diamonds, and a custom bracelet with a gradient gemstone design. Drake originally debuted the piece in August before wearing it again during his 40th birthday celebrations. It is separate from the ruby Rolex Ben discussed purchasing.
Between spending over $200,000 on Drake’s birthday gift and revealing millions of dollars in personal wristwear days later, BenDaDonnn is making a strong case for being one of the biggest watch collectors in the streaming world.
That’s Baller!
