Mike Sigel - World Champion - Rolex

I took private pool lessons from the legendary "many-time" 9 Ball, Straight Pool, Eight ball World Champion Mike "The Mouth", "Captain Hook" Sigel. This is the equivalent of a golfer getting private lessons from Tiger Woods. Mike is 57 and still plays world class pool. He also wears a gorgeous Rolex that he purchased new in 1985. He said he never had it serviced and it keeps perfect time.

I took a few shots of him warming up before our lesson and got a decent one of his "watch" in action. If you're not a pool fan, here is a good article about Mike from Cigar Aficionado:

Here is a youtube clip from the first 10 minutes of a match between Mike Sigel and Mike Zuglan. Mike runs a perfect 150 ball game....
