Jon Rahm's U.S. Open watch

Watched this yesterday but never got a close enough look to figure out which watch he was wearing. I suspected it was a Sky-D and from this picture it appears I was correct.

Not a huge Rahm fan but was sort of rooting for him after his COVID disqualification a couple weeks ago. Those two putts were totally clutch

Great victory.

His caddie handed it to him on the practice tee right after his pre trophy ceremony interview.

Lazy Father's Day for me...watched Max Verstappen take the checkered flag in France and Rahm win the US Open! Two great putts on the 17th and 18th!

Pretty sure his dad was wearing a blue dial Air King as well. Looked like a model not released publicly yet and very nice.

Awesome. Wearing my black 326934 right now.

On a different note and something I've always wondered about a Rolex sponsored athlete/celebrity etc etc I wonder if they have a option to call there agent etc etc and get any and all the watches they want?? And as soon as they want them

I mean if I were lucky enough to be one I'd be like keep the money give me watches and I would have a bunch and a ton would be the not so normal pieces. Like meteorites, a few rainbows, and a bunch of platinums.

Which leads to I wonder which if any sponsors of Rolex and WIS's and have massive collections like some on here. As in owning 20-30 plus

I think Federer has quite a few. Including a birth year 6263 that Rolex gifted him. Never see him wear it, though, as I imagine his post-watch watches are supposed to be ones that are (supposedly lol) available for sale at ADs.

Yeah hes the first guy I thought of especially since he does alot of ads for Rolex. I just wonder if the people lucky enough to have a Rolex sponsorship are the 1-3 watch guys and not trying to build a collection. You know like some of us on here that have in the tens to thirties.

I think it would be awesome to see one of them show off there collection obviously mainly all Rolex. As in I'm into Rolex more than just the logo on my golf shirt or whatever and how they get allocated.

Dreams in my head are imagining one of them walking into Rolex headquarters and grabbing like a kid in the candy store. OMG that would be awesome wouldnt it?

I was happy to see him win considering what happened at his last tournament.

Glad he won and nice to see that Sky-D blue. The putts on 17 and 18 will be remembered as 2 of the all-time great clutch putts. His 1st major and he truly earned the win.
