Fat Joe has worked hard for his money and seems to be really, truly enjoying the fruits of his labor.

The “All the Way Up” rapper wasn’t shy showing off massive bling on Instagram the other day.

On Monday, his 4.7 million Instagram followers got an eyeful of Joe’s seriously sparkling wrist candy.

“The iceberg that sunk the Titanic!!!!!!” said the caption, of the so-called Avalanche.

Made by NYC based Pristine Jewelers, the 18K gold, Swiss made watch is “one of the biggest time pieces with diamonds ever created.”

The Miami resident posed for a promotional video from the store.

“So we’re pushin’ P [being a player] and the only P we’re pushing is Pristine timepieces,” says Joe, who first displays a different, glamorous diamond watch.

“I ordered a watch nine months ago, I can’t believe it finally came in,” he says. “This is legend. If you can get one of these, salute.”

Then the 51 year old born Joseph Cartagena moves on to the Avalanche, still in its box. The singer goes on to say that the watch is so dear that it comes with 24-hour security. It’s unclear if Joe actually owns it, is using it as a loaner or is just ogling it.

Because he ends the video with a warning to anyone who’s rich enough to shop for this masterpiece. “You don’t want this type of smoke right here.”
