Steve McQueen is the man IMHO.
I do not care about Rolex Ambassadors etc...I like guys that wore/wear Rolex because they want to...



This photo was from the making of Papllion...he obviously didn't wear a Sub in that movie but he put it on when he wasn't filming. I guess because he liked it!

I don't care at all for the so called ambassadors and the "Live for Greatness" crap.

However, the top three faces sporting a Rolex:

Hunter S. Thompson
Steve McQueen
Robert Redford

How about that Sea-Dweller wearing fella that posted on the Forum not so long ago from a decompression chamber... waiting to go back down AGAIN. That's the face of Rolex... or at least the SD.

Statham's not so bad either - at least for the ladies. ;)
