Thanks for replying. Can't imagine how much Che's would go for, if put up for auction.

If you find any pics of Fidel and his rollie, please let us know!

Cuban-American CIA agent Félix Rodríguez still has the Rolex that Che was wearing on his wrist at the time of his death.

Thank's. That's quite a famous Rolex to have. I imagine it would fetch quite a sum at auction.

I am proud of being a submariner owner after I saw the footage, because a revolutionary and evil genius decided that a rolex tool watch, was the best watch for taking over an entire country, I dont like the man, I dont like the fact that they did take over cuba, I really dont agree to anything that happend, but it just feels to me like when I watch a gmt on the wrist of an astronaut, i dont care who he is, or where he is going or what satellite for warfare he is going to repair or install or whatever, you know what i mean, all i care about when i see the pics is "wow, this guy is going to space, to adverse conditions, and he chose a rolex to wear, because he knows it wont let him down.
