Olaolu Slawn has revealed a video teaser for his upcoming project titled the Rolex Multiverse

The project brings together 12 collaborators to create 12 distinct one-of-one custom Rolex watches

The announced roster includes Gunna, Mario Balotelli, Verdy, Clint419, Ronaldinho and Gabriel Moses with one mystery collaborator remaining

Slawn and Rolex are pairing up for a new custom series dubbed the “Rolex Multiverse,” bringing together 12 unique collaborators across music, sports, fashion, and contemporary art. First teased in a webcam-style video reveal by British-Nigerian artist Olaolu Slawn, the initiative centers on 12 bespoke one-of-one timepieces.

Building on Slawn’s previous hand-painted watch releases, the “Rolex Multiverse” expands his signature graffiti-inspired visual language into a broader collaborative ecosystem. Each timepiece in the collection is crafted as a unique single-edition release, combining Slawn’s distinctive artistic style with creative inputs from each guest collaborator.

The confirmed roster of collaborators spans multiple cultural sectors, including rapper Gunna and Lil Yachty, football icons Mario Balotelli and Ronaldinho, Japanese graphic designer Verdy, Corteiz founder Clint419, and visual artist Gabriel Moses. With 11 collaborators revealed so far, one final mystery guest remains under wraps.

The Slawn x Rolex Multiverse collection drops throughout August 2026.
