Pepsi GMT's all-around - I've already seen a couple close-up shots of the watches.

Do you think Rolex provided them?

MortgageGuy · 26 September 2011, 12:28 PM

Not sure but that us cool as hell

Speed · 26 September 2011, 12:43 PM

I doubt Rolex would want to do product placement for discontinued models.

buke45 · 26 September 2011, 12:52 PM

No, they are proud about how little they care bout that stuff.

tomallen · 26 September 2011, 04:55 PM

I would think they are prop watches, I don't think a new show would have a budget to supply a bunch of Rolex watches for the actors.

dddrees · 26 September 2011, 08:32 PM

I gues I need to take a look at this show.

Probably just props.

travisb · 26 September 2011, 08:47 PM

I haven't seen it yet but when I heard about it I was wondering if they'd have some GMTs on their wrists.

Puffy · 26 September 2011, 09:03 PM

cool... doubt Rolex would need to product place anything...

DCgator · 26 September 2011, 09:21 PM

Yes, saw the GMTs on that show.

Saw a trailer for a new TV series called Boss, starring Kelsey Grammer (as Chicago mayor?). Not sure when it will start. He wears a DJ prominently.

yeah, my girlfriend has again going hog wild with my DVR since she's a flight attendant and has has made it perfectly clear to DVR this show. Along with dance with the stars, X factor, American Idol and whatever chic shows shes wants. I'm screwed for a while again.

I'm looking into Direct TV due to the fact the memory is larger and I can watch my shows in another room while she takes the 55 inch Sony for hers.

Good show. I would assume the GMTs are props but they look fine on TV, and it's nice that the makers of the show took the time to research this poiint.

Langleyz · 26 September 2011, 10:35 PM

Pretty terrible show. Everything looked so plastic and fake. I'm sure the Rolex's were too.

Watch Professor · 26 September 2011, 10:37 PM

The only interesting thing on this show were the Rolexes, and they were probably props. Awful show.

Maxseven · 26 September 2011, 10:54 PM

I thought the show was well done, especially from an artistic viewpoint. You can tell that a lot of research was done to make the visuals accurate, yet surreal for the period. A very stylish depiction of the 60's - and reminds me a lot of the show Madmen.

This show is much better than another mindless Reality-TV series - I'm so sick of those.

Trouble is - it conflicts with the best show now on TV...Breaking Bad. on AMC
