“What happens when you bust down a watch?” is used to describe a luxury watch that has been fully flooded with diamonds or precious gemstones. It’s a popular customization choice for celebrities, athletes, and those who want to show off their wealth with a bold, eye-catching design. Often times, the jewelry used for this style is custom made by a specialist gem setter. It is a meticulous process that requires high levels of skill. This is something only the most proficient, master jewelers can perform.
This type of jewelry is also called “iced out” or “blinged out.” The term first came to be in use within hip-hop culture, where artists like Master P commissioned jewelers to personalize their Rolex President watches. This blinging trend became more widespread in recent years, and has become synonymous with celebrity culture and money. Rappers and other popular personalities sport iced out luxury watches to make a statement, especially during big music events such as award shows.
While many traditionalists still scoff at the idea of a Rolex, Patek Philippe, or Audemars Piguet being iced out, this attitude is starting to fade away. As long as the diamonds or gemstones are high quality and securely set, these types of watches can be extremely beautiful and still hold a substantial value.
