A Drake fan now appears to own an expensive piece of 6 God history, as Drizzy’s Rolex from his 2011 Take Care album cover art has reportedly sold for six figures.

According to WatchPro, Wind Vintage sold Drake’s Rolex GMT Master II for $500,000. The lucrative sale is $400,000 over market value, per EveryWatch data. Billboard has reached out to Drake’s reps for confirmation.


Drizzy rocked the gold Rolex, which has the OVO owl engraved on its backside, on the cover for Take Care and again in the “Marvin’s Room” video.

“Marvin’s Room” served as the lead single from Take Care, peaking at No. 21 on the Billboard Hot 100. Take Care arrived in November 2011 and topped the Billboard 200 with 631,000 total album units earned, according to Nielsen SoundScan (now Luminate). Drake’s sophomore album came in at No. 31 on Billboard‘s 100 Greatest Rap Albums of All-Time list.

“Personally, I have never seen the collectible watch market hotter than it is today,” Wind Vintage’s Eric Wind told WatchPro. “The velocity with which we are selling the watches, frequently selling the watches within minutes of listing the watch on our site, is mind-blowing, but there is a broad diversity of highly educated buyers who are collecting them, so it is not isolated to a specific and narrow group of buyers that would mean the market is fragile and risky.”

Drake has rapped about his Rolexes or other sophisticated watches from his decorated collection throughout his career. “This a Rollie, not a stopwatch, s—t don’t ever stop,” he raps on “Nonstop.”

We’ll see if Drake rhymes about his favorite wristwear these days on his upcoming album Iceman, which is slated to arrive on May 15.
