8 timepieces from Rihanna's luxury watch collection: Cartier, Rolex, Jacob & Co and more
Rihanna 's luxury watch collection, every single piece just work, work, work, work, works. The Barbados-born singer-turned-business mogul has spent nearly two decades building an empire and a career in entertainment, and with a net worth of US$1.7 billion, she's earned every bit of her style icon status.
Never one to shy away from a statement piece, Rihanna has long embraced the world of luxury timepieces, making curated picks, forging relationships with top watchmakers, and consistently stepping out in rare, droolworthy models. From diamond-studded fine jewellery to bold, custom one-offs, here are some of the stand-out watches in Riri's personal collection.

One thing's for sure: nobody does
pregnancy couture like Rihanna . Last month, she stepped out in a floaty, ruffled Saint Laurent maternity dress, grounded with practical Puma trainers – and on her wrist, a not-so-practical Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 77450OR, fresh off the line. This 34mm beauty is crafted from 18-carat pink gold with a matching pink Grande Tapisserie dial and integrated bracelet – a monochrome masterpiece that's as feminine as it is fierce. It's newly released and already making waves in the resale market, commanding prices close to US$90,000.
Cartier Panthère de Cartier

Another fabulous women's watch in Rihanna's collection is the oh-so-chic Cartier Panthère de Cartier, a timepiece she's been spotted wearing on repeat. It's no surprise why: this elegant yellow-gold timepiece is the definition of versatile. With its petite, polished silhouette, it's the kind of watch that works for just about anything, from red carpets and power lunches to late-night parties and casual errand runs. It's quiet luxury at its best – and, worth somewhere in the neighbourhood of US$28,200, it's a nice affordable price point … if you're a billionaire pop star and entrepreneur, of course.
Cartier Santos

Rihanna's love for
Cartier doesn't stop at the Panthère. She's also been seen wearing the iconic Cartier Santos, a watch that shares the same sleek design language but with a more structured, industrial edge. Where the Panthère flows like jewellery thanks to its silky, five-link bracelet, the Santos leans tougher: a bold square case, exposed screws and chunkier links that make it feel more unisex. The Fenty Beauty founder was spotted wearing it out and about, running errands like grocery shopping (she's just like us!) stacking it with gold bangles (OK, not just like us), proving that luxury doesn't need an occasion.

Apollo 13 commander James Lovell dies at 97
James Lovell, the pioneering US astronaut whose two dramatic missions to the moon included Apollo 13, the nearly disastrous trip that captivated the world and decades later inspired a triumphant Hollywood blockbuster, has died. He was 97. Advertisement He died on August 7 in Lake Forest, Illinois, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration announced, without citing a cause. A member of Nasa's second astronaut class, Lovell made history repeatedly during the heyday of the US space programme, notching the first rendezvous with a crewed spacecraft; the longest American space flight of the 1960s, in Gemini 7; and the first lunar mission, the Apollo 8 orbital journey that captured the iconic image of a blue-and-white Earth suspended against lonely, black emptiness. His two trips during the Gemini programme and two more in Apollo capsules made him the first person to fly into space on four separate occasions and the first to fly twice to the moon. His 29-plus days in space were the most of any American until the shuttle began roaring into low Earth orbit in the 1980s. Advertisement The most riveting moments of Lovell's astronaut career came during the Apollo 13 accident, a four-day drama that unspooled while Nasa worked feverishly to bring the three-man crew home and a global audience pondered the awful prospect that they might be stranded on a one-way trip. The Apollo 13 mission 'was a disappointment, it was a failure', Lovell said in a 2002 interview with Charlie Rose.

Behind the Gen Z revival of Y2K fashion and how to sell your old clothes
From Juicy Couture sweat sets and low-rise, bedazzled jeans to chunky belts and baby tees, early 2000s fashion is all the rage again. That potentially makes that old box of clothes in the back of your wardrobe a sitting cash cow. Advertisement Generation Z has taken to the Y2K aesthetic that many millennials cringe at. Fashion-forward university students and TikTok influencers are flaunting the miniskirts, chunky sandals and other bright, brand-heavy and borderline tacky items they likely bought second-hand. Jackson Mangum, a 24-year-old tailor in the US state of Oregon, says that while he has distanced himself from Y2K and found his style, his wardrobe still has influences of it, including baggy camo shorts, flared jeans and big, funky sunglasses. 'I'm usually not Y2K, but I appreciate Y2K style. I think it's cool,' says Mangum, who showcases his work on his Instagram account, @wornandtornattire. Advertisement 'The baggy jeans, different pops of pink and the chrome shades – it's easy to go anywhere and be able to find things that fit into that niche. Throwing it together is easier than throwing together a full vintage outfit.'
