How the Rolex Oyster Perpetual began to attract an A-list crowd

(Article) How the Rolex Oyster Perpetual began to attract an A-list crowd

People like Roger Federer, Lebron James, Mark Wahlberg, and Jen Selter are clamoring for the OP 124300 in Green, Yellow, Red, and Turquoise...

But this isn't new for Rolex. Years ago the celebrity examples were people like Kiri Te Kanawa, Jacques Cousteau, and Plácido Domingo. Similar story, different cast of characters.

Hype followed by more hype and today hype dictates to what many of todays Rolex owners wear,just to wear the hype and not the watch.But myself are not influenced by the hype or what any so called celebrity is normally paid to wear, I buy only any watch I want to own and wear.
