If I were a rich man, all day long I’d spend a million dollars on a watch! That’s how that goes right?
A video of a wealthy man stopped on the street has gone viral because of his bright green, incredibly expensive watch.
The watch, despite its 1.5 million dollar price tag, looks like the inside of a car engine in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. Or like a failed accessory for the Green Lantern.

If you're curious, the watch is a “Bugatti Chiron Tourbillon Green Sapphire Crystal” watch. But to people over on X (Twitter), it looks straight out of a morning cereal box or Happy Meal.
1.5 mil for a watch that looks exactly like the Phil and Lil Rugrats watch that came with the Burger King kids meal in the 90’s is nuts https://t.co/Wnamyh8JQq

“1.5 mil for a watch that looks exactly like the Phil and Lil Rugrats watch that came with the Burger King kids meal in the ’90s is nuts,” says comedian, @DewaynePerkins.
“Bro spent the cost of a house on a watch that looks like it came from a box of Kix with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on them” comments @LeftAtLondon.

Despite all the owns and cries to “eat the rich,” some people recognized the rich guy as famous jeweler, Jacob Arabo, or “Jacob the Jeweler,” as he’s known in the hip-hop world.
Back in the 90s, Arabo was growing his jeweler business in New York when he caught the eye of Notorious B.I.G with his out-there designs.

He has made jewelry for artists such as Jay-Z, Nas, Diddy, and 50 Cent. Arabo is frequently name-dropped by rappers, especially Kanye West.
In searching for the watch, it was revealed that Arabo actually designed the Ben 10 watch himself, and we're guessing he didn't actually pay himself the $1,500,000 price tag.
