A Funny Anecdote About Rolex on The Jay Leno Show

Fast forward to 14:06, though the whole video is worth a watch, especially if you’re a car guy.

Thanks for sharing. Excellent.

Did I hear this right, he said he had 70 Rolex watches?

What did he say or do to deserve such a designation?

I think the 70 Rolex comment was a bit awkward and may have come across as bragging. Jay seems like a good guy. I heard he is very down to earth and just one of the guys from someone who knows him pretty well.

Enjoyed the video. I used to see Jay at the Comedy Club in Manhattan Beach 40 years ago. His car collection is spectacular. Can’t believe the happy meal coupon effort. Imagine buying a car for $1m and having it double in value. Was Jay wearing a Daytona? That would make sense. Thx for sharing OP.
