Introduction to Swae Lee
Swae Lee — born Khalif Malik Ibn Shaman Brown in Inglewood, California, and raised in Tupelo, Mississippi — first broke through as one half of the hip-hop duo Rae Sremmurd alongside his brother Slim Jxmmy. The pair signed to Mike Will Made-It's EarDrummers label and released a string of platinum-certified projects throughout the mid-2010s, including the Grammy-nominated hit 'Black Beatles.' Swae Lee's melodic, sing-rap style quickly distinguished him as a solo force, a reputation that was confirmed when his feature on French Montana's 'Unforgettable' reached the top three of the Billboard Hot 100 in 2017. Since then, he has racked up collaborations with Post Malone, Jhené Aiko, and Diplo, establishing himself as one of the more versatile vocalists working across hip-hop and pop.
The Swae Lee watch collection, as tracked through public sightings, currently points toward Cartier as his brand of choice — and not the entry-level end of that catalogue. He has been photographed wearing the Cartier Santos de Cartier Skeleton in reference WHSA0007, a 40mm stainless steel piece that runs on the manufacture Calibre 9611 MC. That movement is a skeletonized manual-winding calibre developed by Cartier specifically for this open-worked configuration, meaning the architectural layout of the dial is dictated entirely by the movement underneath it. It is a technically considered watch, not simply a luxury badge.
Choosing the skeletonized Santos over more commercially visible Cartier references — the Panthere or a diamond-set Ballon Bleu, for instance — suggests a degree of deliberate selection. The Santos itself carries genuine historical weight as one of the earliest purpose-built wristwatches, and the skeleton variant adds mechanical visibility to that legacy. For a rapper whose musical identity has always leaned toward craft over convention, the choice feels consistent.

The Santos de Cartier's skeleton variant strips away every non-essential component of Cartier's in-house Manufacture 9611 MC movement, leaving an open-worked architecture that turns the watch into wearable mechanical sculpture. Reference WHSA0007 elevates the formula further with a diamond-set case and bezel in stainless steel — a combination that balances flash with structural credibility. Rapper and Rae Sremmurd co-founder Swae Lee was spotted wearing this piece, a choice that reflects both his eye for high-end jewellery watches and his consistent presence in luxury watch culture.
