Diddy noted the watch is not as 'hot', adding he has three of them, but he has never worn them.
"It's not hot, I have like two or three, I never pull them out, they are ugly. I don't even know Richard Mille," he said.
He urged black men to save their money and buy houses or get property instead of the watch.
From The ShadeRoom's post, many seemed to agree with him while others questioned why he is dissing the watch while owning three.
