He might not be going for the bling, but he definitely has something to say with his jewellery so he deserves a shout.
In an interview when he was asked about his clock chains he reportedly replied:
"The reason why I wear this clock is because it represents time being the most important element in our life." "Time can't afford to be wasted, but not only that, but God only gave us one life. Each minute we live, we have to live each second to our best value. Time brought us up in here, and time can also take us out."
Deep stuff.
