The event comes after it was revealed that Drake spent a whopping $5.5 million on a one-of-a-kind Richard Mille watch as a present to himself for his birthday.
According to media outlet TMZ, the watch was encased in sapphire crystal in lieu of diamonds or any other jewels.
They also reported that the timepiece employed the tourbillon movement as a subtle addition to the accessory itself.
Richard Mille originally released the watch in 2019, when it was originally listed at a price of $2.8 million.
The watch itself was described as a one-of-a-kind piece, which only served to illustrate its overall value.
The business also wrote a short message in the post’s caption that was directed at the rapper and partially read: ‘Happy 35th Bday you did it right.’
