Where would one get a Rolex baseball cap?

I've owned my DJ for a while now, and have a sizable baseball cap collection, so I'd like to combine the two and get a green Rolex cap like the one below. There don't seem to be any in the classifieds here, and nothing good (or authentic) on eBay. Any idea where I could get my hands on one?? Thanks guys.

Ebay has some from time to time. I have a nice Daytona baseball cap that I rarely wear. Wore it today to get coffee at the Starbucks drive through.

I never wear it if I'm getting out of the car. Not really interested in advertising I'm wearing a Rolex.

As hats go, that's a nice one.

I've got a green one. Given to me from an AD after I purchased two watches from them.

Don't worry about genuine,Rolex makes watches not hats. Have one made to your custom specifications.

Try the gift shop in the lobby of Rolex HQ in Geneva...they're right by the Milgauss fridge magnets.

Thanks for all the advice guys! I'll keep trying eBay and pop into a few AD's to see what they say. Luckily there are plenty in my area so maybe I can ask some of the associates I've become friendly with

Just curious Mitchell...For what type of occasion would you wear your hat?

Not to sound (too) rude, but I think it is sort of gauche when people feel the need to "advertise" the brands they wear more so than necessary eg. obviously an "H" belt/Birkin is fine, or things of that nature, but I would never buy a hat that said "Hermes" on it. I think it is much more elegant not to have to advertise the brands in which you wear whilst wearing them. The people that will notice it, will notice it without the added advertisement.

No where in particular. I have hundreds of hats from all over and just wanted one from Rolex.

I don't feel the need to "advertise" anything, it's just a brand I like. I'm not a hillbilly.

This is really true couturegirl, but if I saw a man wearing that Hermes H belt I would most likely feel compelled to run him down with my truck.

Rolex accessories, what will they think of next. At least if you wear a Rolex cap the criminals would know it making you an easier target.

For sure, cosign 100% - though I disagree about the H belt. I don't really find them to be discreet or elegant.

That being said, I wear a natural leather belt that over the last 8 years has turned a muddy shade of brown and blue from my jeans - so I might not be an authority on style there.

I mostly wear mine riding and occasionally when I'm in jeans and T-shirt. I would agree that elegant would not be the right word for that belt, but just meant that I don't find that as "offensive" as walking around with a hat that says "Hermes" or "Rolex".

I find it strange that someone could even find a hat offensive. Seems awfully trivial to me.

Ahh, absolutely! I'm with you there. Walking around with giant brand names printed on your stuff is very... eh in my books. Reminds me of this guy I knew from college, got a job in i-banking and decided he wanted to look like a baller. Went around EVERYWHERE wearing this monogram LV scarf... even in the summer. It was pretty pathetic, tbh.

If I drive from Philadelphia to NYC upon arrival there will I find many men running amok wearing Rolex caps and/or H belts?
