Nas' 'Stillmatic' Album

Amazon.com

Estimated Total: $1.5 million

"The beauty of Nas is it's all classic, and it's all timeless," expert Richard Wubnig, manager of Michael C. Fina jewelers in New York City, tells The BoomBox. "He is a trendsetter. I would go on the limb and say most people in music and hip-hop are watching what he does, to make the next step. It's all platinum. You probably looking at 300 carats of diamonds from a diamond pavé watch. Four diamond pavé bracelets. The bracelets alone probably three-quarters of a million dollars. When you're talking jewelry, Nas, Jay-Z, Birdman, are probably the biggest trendsetters. It's quality jewelry, not like in the '80s, not just the big rope chain. No more gold. It's platinum."
