Richard Mille is renowned for its luxurious Swiss watches, known for their exceptional craftsmanship and high price tags. According to Wrist Advisor, Richard Mille watches can range from $60,000 to $1.3 million, with factors such as materials, complications, and limited editions influencing the final price.

While spending half a million dollars on a watch may seem extravagant, it may not be a significant expense for someone like Tatum, who recently signed a contract extension with the Boston Celtics worth nearly $200 million. Since joining the team in 2017, Tatum has already earned $57 million, and his current deal is expected to increase to $200 million in the future.

Despite the extravagant timepiece, Tatum’s best birthday gift may have been the quality time spent with his 4-year-old son in his hometown of St. Louis, Missouri. He shared a heartwarming video of his son taking him to his favorite spots, and later posted pictures from his birthday celebration, where he could be seen embracing his toddler amidst a backdrop adorned with basketball-themed balloons. It’s evident that Tatum thoroughly enjoyed celebrating his 24th birthday in style.
