About Lil Kleine’s watch collection
Lil Kleine, born Jorik Scholten in 1993, is one of the most commercially successful rappers to emerge from the Netherlands. He rose to prominence in the mid-2010s as part of the Dutch hip-hop scene, releasing a string of platinum-certified tracks and collaborating with major names in European rap. His music sits at the intersection of Dutch street rap and melodic trap, and despite a turbulent public profile marked by legal controversies, his cultural footprint in the Benelux music market remains substantial. He built a significant following across streaming platforms and social media, where his lifestyle — cars, fashion, and watches — is documented with the same intensity as his music.
When it comes to watches, Lil Kleine gravitates toward the kind of high-end Swiss sports-luxury pieces that have become shorthand in rap and hip-hop culture for serious horological spending. The Lil Kleine watch collection, as documented through public appearances and social media, features Audemars Piguet prominently. He has been photographed wearing the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph reference 26320OR.OO.1220OR.01 — a full 18k rose gold version of the Royal Oak line carrying a black dial with the brand's recognizable Grande Tapisserie guilloché pattern. It runs the calibre 2385, a column-wheel chronograph movement, and sits in a 41mm case that balances presence on the wrist with the geometric discipline that has defined the Royal Oak since Gerald Genta's original 1972 design.
Choosing the Royal Oak Chronograph in full rose gold — rather than the more restrained steel or two-tone variants — signals a deliberate preference for visibility and material weight over understatement. The reference 26320OR is not an entry-level Royal Oak; it represents a meaningful step up in both price and rarity within the lineup. For a Dutch rapper whose public image is built around unfiltered self-expression, the choice tracks logically. It is a watch that carries recognizable design credentials while simultaneously functioning as a clear indicator of financial reach.
