Good answer.

Coming from someone that grew up in LA and works with celebrities from around the world, I can honestly care less what they do, the watches they wear, etc. Wear what you love and enjoy it -- that's all that matters.

I personally am not a big fan of solid gold watches and usually wear my 116613 on a daily basis. I think, in many situations, it gives off the wrong impression, especially when it comes to business. I would be more worried about that.

Just my $.02

who cares?

[gwozhog]

I used to wear a TT Black sub and I once shook hands with Ellie May from the Beverly Hillbillies. Does that count?

[Muzz]

I have never owned a TT Black Sub, has never been on my radar but as said, I do not plan my acquisitions based on what celebrities wear.

Thread bumparoo lol of all threads to bump this one? Why don't famous people wear more two tone? Why don't alligators eat more crackers who knows lol

[RXAPPP]

I never comment on such post but today I'm going to start counting...... I must be on a very different planet to some on here....almost speechless

I like two tone GMT's with nipple dials but no other two tones. I guess it's inherently a two-tone kind of watch, whatever those two tones might be. Do Rolex call them nipple dials?

BTW what's wrong with talking about what celebrities wear. If Sean Connery hadn't worn a Sub as 007 then I doubt even 50% as many would have been sold over the years.

I'm glad this thread was revived. It was very, very amusing to read through.

TRF is a very silly place.

Brilliant!

I think the OP got treated a little roughly here. There are dozens of posts on this forum about the popularity of one model over another. I don't really care what celebrities wear but it is interesting to see sometimes what people end up wearing who aren't constrained by resources just to gain a different perspective. And with all the noise on here about Sean Connery and Paul Newman I must not be alone in that.

[munshpe]

I have all gold, two tone, and stainless, but I'm not a celeb. I like two tone best of all because it goes with everything. So the theory that people who buy two tone can not afford gold, is not always accurate.

What I noticed is famous people or celebrities or politicians do wear Submariner but no two tone Submariner with the black dial.

Why is that ?

famous people only wear watch bands made from the skin of poor people. two-tone is considered racist.

I agree with you~ But actually I also like some of the Datejust II 2 tones and even some of the Turn-O-Graph rose gold 2 tones... Awe heck I just like mostly all Rolexes~ Two tone, Single tone each model has it's own charisma! Afterall they're Rolexes!

Gary Busey wore a TT black face sub in under seige

wow not sure how so many people here interpreted the OP as wanting to copy a famous person's style

he was just asking why they do not wear certain models

At the end of the day, buy what you like and can afford

Why is that ?

So based on a few pictures you reached this conclusion?

Buy what you want to own and wear, forget about everyone else.

This thread rocks on so many levels its ridiculous! A few days back I saw a thread from a guy about being a "serial flipper" because he had gone through like 27 Rolex watches in a few years. He then provided a list of them and they were all SS except a few TT. One of the responses was that "Gees, with all those trades, you could have owned like 5 all Gold Rolex.

I found that funny....'cause I'm sure with what many if us have spent on Rolex watches over the year, we could have owned at least 5 Gold Rolex, prolly more! Which wld be a valid point if I had any interest in a Gold Rolex! I will say I like white gold Pepsi and the Platona though...but not the one w/ Diamonds.

Also, it's hilarious that Adam is taking heat for not liking all Gold watches (because he has taste)....yet nobody even said a word about the guy whom pretty much suggested the Bieb's should hang himself! Which was in extremely poor taste!

i have to agree completely with your post.

i was just thinking that this thread is kind of ironic.

one one hand, tons of posts of "what should i get"

on the other, "i only wear what i like, not what other people like".

all in all, this is a super friendly place with lots of great people. but there sure are a few hot button topics that get people all sorts of riled up.

and really, there are tons of celebrity endorsements from all sorts of vendors....why? because celebrities sell just about everything...just by being seen in them...

[Glidelock]

Yeah Seth, it's always intriguing which threads will get people super responsive or riled up. Either way, this thread has been nothing less than entertaining!

[Wcdhtwn]

Jakes Rolex World has hundreds of pictures of famous people (athletes, actors, actresses, business people, etc.) and the Rolexes they wear. Google it. I noticed that a lot of women who wear men's Rolexes choose the Daytona, especially supermodels.
