Rihanna made a dazzling appearance at the Las Vegas Grand Prix on Saturday night, standing out among the A-list attendees with a striking accessory—a $400,000 ankle watch from Jacob & Co. The bespoke timepiece, adorned with over 70 carats of round and emerald-cut diamonds, was set in 18K white gold and wrapped around her ankle. This extravagant choice underscored Rihanna’s penchant for high fashion and luxury.
The singer, 35, paired the stunning watch with a chic outfit: shiny black Balenciaga leggings tucked into heeled boots. Her look was completed with a leather jacket, a low-cut top, and dark sunglasses. A bold red lip accentuated her ensemble, adding a pop of color to her sophisticated appearance. Rihanna’s fashion-forward choice was complemented by her boyfriend, A$AP Rocky, as they made their way through the event together.
Rihanna’s relationship with Jacob & Co. spans over a decade, and her latest accessory is just one of many extravagant pieces she has worn from the jeweler. Earlier in June, she turned heads at Pharrell Williams’s Louis Vuitton Fashion Show, where she wore a $670,000 watch from the same brand as a choker. This piece was an 18-karat-gold Flying Tourbillon, featuring 339 baguette diamonds and a custom alligator-embossed calfskin strap. The watch, known for its hand-wound movement and 42-hour power reserve, was styled uniquely around her neck as part of her bold fashion statement.
Jacob & Co. shared a close-up of the $400,000 ankle watch on social media, showcasing its intricate design and luxurious details. The watch’s unique placement around Rihanna’s ankle certainly drew attention, reflecting her innovative approach to fashion.
The Las Vegas Grand Prix, known for its high-speed excitement and glamorous atmosphere, was also attended by other celebrities such as Cara Delevingne, Heidi Klum, Brad Pitt, Paris Hilton, and David Beckham. The event featured a 1.2-mile straightaway along Las Vegas Blvd, known as The Strip, which is the second-longest on the Formula 1 circuit.
Rihanna’s appearance at the Grand Prix was a perfect blend of luxury and style, with her choice of jewelry and attire reflecting her status as a fashion icon.
