When you say a collection, how many are you talking about?Not like how many, like how much. I have maybe $200,000 in wristwatches. What I am wearing now is a Rolex Daytona, I got it from Polo for Christmas. It cost about $30,000. Polo is Nigeria’s only authorised dealer, so I bought it from the company and I love it. I love pens too. Sometimes I could just be like a woman. I love things that shine but not all the time. I like cufflinks, pens but I am not the necklace or a bracelet kind of guy. Though I wear bracelets once in a while; so I like my cufflinks, pens and wristwatches, any attire that would show them off, I am good with it. Continue...
What wouldn’t you be caught wearing?
Michael Kors. I am sorry but I just think
that brand is so razz. First their name, I think their name is so razz.
Not exactly the name, it is the brand, all you have for the logo is MK.
Their products are loud, ugly and cheap. I see someone wearing a
Michael Kors watch and I see it as they are trying so hard to wear Rols
gold. I can’t afford that so the next thing is to pick up Michael Kors. I
would rather take equally priced designer but with a bit more class and
less noise. I would never be caught wearing that. Designers I like are
Tom Ford, Gucci, I love LV shoes that are not monogrammed. I like
Hermes; I think that is a really brilliant designer. I like the fact
that they play with orange a lot.
What is your take on celebrities posting photos of their expensive fashion items on their social media accounts?
First thing first, for all the
entertainers putting up pictures of their accessories on Instagram, can
they please tweet the receipt from an authorised dealer. Trust me, I
have seen too many celebs wear fake stuffs. You can tell that they don’t
know what they are wearing. Of course, there are a few brand names like
D’banj, Don Jazzy, P-Square or Wizkid that would not wear fake. I have
seen them wear good watches. But there are some other people who I have
seen wear funny looking pieces. There was one particular musician that I
saw wearing a Rolex and the gold was fading. Rolex never uses gold
plates, they use pure gold. If you see anything gold on a Rolex, it is
pure gold. When I saw that, I was disappointed at the musician,
especially because of the level of respect I had for the musician. There
is no such thing like buying a Rolex with a credit card. You can’t buy a
Rolex with a credit card; who are you? Diddy? For you to be able to
walk away with a £20,000 watch, you would have a substantial amount of
money in that card.
