DJ Maphorisa has once again found himself at the centre of a heated social media debate over a luxury Rolex watch valued at an eye-watering R1.1 million.
The viral photo, shared by MDNnewss, shows the star flaunting the diamond-studded timepiece alongside his gold “OVI” grills and signature Cuban-link chain.
The extravagant watch, complete with a sparkling diamond-lined bezel, instantly set X (formerly Twitter) ablaze.
While many fans applauded the Particula hitmaker for enjoying the rewards of his success, others questioned whether such an indulgence was necessary.
Maphorisa, known for his taste for luxury, is no stranger to headlines about his high-end lifestyle.
His impressive collection of classic BMW 325iS “Gusheshes” has previously caught attention, with each model valued anywhere between R250,000 and R1.5 million.
Earlier this year, he also trended for stepping out in an outfit worth R262,000, featuring Christian Dior items and a Louis Vuitton coin purse.
But this latest flex has sparked mixed reactions, with fans and critics going back and forth in the comments.
Supporters praised him for earning his place among SA’s top music earners, with one user writing: “This man is deserving of each and everything he has.”
Another labelled him simply: “He is the GOAT.”
Not everyone was convinced, though. Some questioned whether the DJ should prioritise other financial matters instead of splurging on luxury accessories.
One critic asked: “Yes, he wears expensive watches, but is the record company that he owes paid off?”
