Rare James Bond and Paul Newman Rolexes Up for Auction at Antiquorum
What do Paul Newman, James Bond, and Jean-Claude Killy have in common? In addition to being pop-culture icons, each is famously associated with a particular model of Rolex watch. And each of these models will be represented this week at Antiquorum‘s auction of vintage and modern timepieces.Antiquorum, the world’s leading auctioneer of fine watches, holds its last auction of the year on December 13 at its U.S. headquarters in New York City. There will be 340 modern and vintage timepieces offered, led by a number of valuable Rolex models.Among the headline pieces is a Rolex Ref. 6241 Daytona in yellow gold; this reference is well-known to collectors as a rare “Paul Newman” model, distinguished by its dial design, which derived its name from the fact that it was the watch the famous actor wore regularly once he began his hobby of automobile racing. Made in the 1960s, this watch is a round-button chronograph with the reference’s distinctive cross-hair subdials

Santa left me a Speedy!!!!!
First off, Merry Christmas to everyone. I have to share some early morning shots of my new Speedy, another great Christmas in my house. The kids were up a 4 am making all kinds of noise downstairs, so my wife and I ended up just getting up at 4:30. I have to say that I was a little excited myself, because I was really hoping that Santa would leave my a new Speedy for me to enjoy, well he did and here are some pics. It has been a couple of years since I owned a Omega, way to long, the Speedy is one amazing watch. This one is a keeper for life and one that will forever see lots of wrist time. Last year he left me a GMT II blue/red, two years in a row that I have been a really good boy! Last years GMT II
