Almost every video interview he was wearing one. I wonder how many extra links he needed?

Pretty sure he meant the watch-- Faith Evans isn't quite that large

The Notorious B.I.G. = a good nickname for the Deep Sea.

'Girl you look fine, like a windface Rolex you just shine'

'Throw your Rollies in the sky, wave em side to side'


All these years I thought he said 'wine faced' like a purplish hue, but I looked it up and it looks like it's windface, whatever that is. I like wine faced better.

Since they're at the docks he probably just "dropped off" a friend!

With all that bling he looks like a king.

Don't get too down on him, coz when he sits on you, you're sure as hell gonna become very slim.

Depends on the generation, the majority of the fourm members, are how shall we say, Middle aged? We of course are the exception, so we know who Biggie is. I'm pretty sure there's a good majority of Europeans who are in our age demographic that know who Biggie is as well.

I've heard of him, but I think that mentioning the likes of him and his lifestyle on a board dedicated to the products created by the likes of Hans Wilsdorf is not in good taste, even if he happened to own one.

What a train wreck.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Notorious_B.I.G.

Tupac Shakur?

I've heard of him, too.

Where's he now?

Caution: Grotesque picture.
