Introduction to G-dragon
G-Dragon, born Kwon Ji-yong on August 18, 1988, in Seoul, South Korea, is a singer, rapper, songwriter, and producer who rose to prominence as the leader of K-pop group BIGBANG. He launched a parallel solo career that has produced some of South Korea's best-charting albums, and his influence stretches well beyond music into fashion, art, and brand culture. He has served as a global ambassador for Chanel and has collaborated with Nike, among dozens of other partnerships. By most measures, he is one of the most commercially and culturally significant artists to emerge from South Korea in the past two decades.
The G-Dragon watch collection, as documented through public sightings, reflects a consistent preference for technically complex, high-value pieces from the upper tier of independent watchmaking. He has been spotted wearing the Richard Mille RM 35-01, a tonneau-cased skeletonized watch developed from the same platform as the RM 035, which was originally co-engineered with professional tennis player Rafael Nadal. The RM 35-01 — sometimes called the 'Baby Nadal' — uses a baseplate and bridges constructed from NTPT carbon and TPT quartz, keeping weight extremely low while maintaining structural integrity. The movement is a manual-wind caliber with a tourbillon and features Richard Mille's signature free-sprung balance with variable inertia.
The choice of the RM 35-01 is consistent with G-Dragon's documented appetite for objects that sit at the intersection of engineering and visual art. Richard Mille occupies a specific position in the watch market — pieces are produced in limited numbers, retail prices regularly exceed six figures, and the brand has cultivated a clientele that skews toward athletes, musicians, and collectors who prioritize technical credibility alongside visibility. For a figure who has spent years operating at the overlap of performance culture and luxury fashion, the fit is a logical one.
G-Dragon Spotted Wearing Richard Mille RM 35-01 'Baby Nadal'
Inserted 30/11/2022
The Richard Mille RM 35-01 earned its 'Baby Nadal' nickname as a more accessible entry point into the tonneau-shaped, ultra-light watch family Rafael Nadal famously wore on court — yet it still houses a skeletonized manual-winding caliber built to absorb 5,000 Gs of shock. The case construction, typically in NTPT Carbon or grade 5 titanium, keeps the total weight under 33 grams on the wrist. South Korean K-pop icon and fashion polymath G-Dragon, known for pushing sartorial boundaries both on and off stage, was spotted wearing exactly this piece.
