President Biden Rocking Rolex Datejust Taking a Test Drive in an Electric Ford F150 Prototype

 

President Biden Rocking Rolex Datejust
Taking a Test Drive in an Electric Ford F150 Prototype

Nick Gould discovered the fact that President Biden was rocking his Rolex Datejust when he took a prototype Electric Ford F150 for a test drive. It's funny that Biden is not wearing a mask but the Ford Truck is!?!!

I put together the funny meme above of President Biden citing Obi-Won's classic line from Star Wars—but imagine him saying it with Inspector Cousteau's thick French accent from the Pink Panther—as the video above reminded me of the scene in Star Wars where Luke, C3PO, R2D2 and Obi-Won Kenobi are riding in the land speeder to Moss Isley when they encounter Imperial Storm Troopers :-)

Michael Jordan

The Greatest Basketball Player In History

A Brilliant Life With Rolex Keeping His Time

Michael Jordan is arguably the greatest basketball player in history, and perhaps the greatest athlete in history, as well. Michael Jordan has been wearing Rolex watches since he began is professional basketball career, and still wears them today. In this first photo we see Michael Jordan rockin' his 50th Anniversary Platinum Rolex Daytona, as he watches the NBA basketball team he owns—The Charlotte Hornets.

The Platinum Rolex Daytona

50th Anniversary Edition

In the photos above, Michael Jordan is not wearing just any Rolex Daytona, but the all-new Platinum Rolex Daytona, which Rolex introduced to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Rolex Daytona model. This model marks the first time in history Rolex has offered a Daytona model make out of Platinum.

In the photo below we see Michael Jordan next to his son, who is also wearing a Rolex Daytona.

In another recent photo below, we see Micheal Jordan wearing a yellow gold Rolex GMT-Master.

Michael Jordan is pictured below in a recent photograph, sporting his Rolex MasterPiece watch. Men's Rolex MasterPiece watches are rare, and they are basically Rolex Day-Dates with a special bracelet. Rolex MasterPiece watches have been particularly popular with NBA players.

In the photo below we see Michael Jordan wearing a Platinum Rolex Day-Date.

Graham Stephan

Rolex Datejust

I am a huge fan of high-end modern architecture, most of which is located in Beverly Hills, Bell Air and in the Hollywood Hills in Southern California. I have been following Graham Stephan on YouTube since he started his channel a few years ago. Graham reminds me of Tom Cruise for some reason. I always wondered why he didn't wear a Rolex, so recently I could not help but notice when he recently started rocking a stainless steel Rolex Datejust as seen in the photo below. Congrats on your Datejust Graham. It looks great on you and wear it well!!!

I first noticed Graham wearing his Rolex Datejust in a fascinating video review of the all-new $500 Million Beverly Hills Estate named 'THE ONE', which is arguably the most expensive private residence on earth—or certainly one of them.

Ironically, Graham's review was of Producer Michael's amazing tour of THE ONE which can be seen below in the 3 part series which features THE ONE developer, Nile Niami who is a fascinatingly charismatic and talented developer. 

One element of Nile's house I thought was REALLY cool was the Cigar Lounge which features a wall covered with backlit vintage playboy magazine covers as seen below.

That being said, my personal opinion—as a designer—is Nile went too far over-the-top with this house in the sense it is just way too big to be appreciated. At times this architecture reminds me of the Winchester Mystery House where you will have a door open to a brick wall, or a flight of stairs they lead to the ceiling. 

You really notice this with details like the balcony above the office with the shelves that go up to the top of the 35 foot ceiling that are NOT accessible. Le Corbusier, the famous Swiss architect put it best when he said:

"As a car is a machine for driving,

 

and an airplane is a machine for flying

—a house is a machine for living in.

...A house as practical as a typewriter."

—Charles-Édouard Jeanneret  

(A.K.A. Le Corbusier) 

Ironically, at one point when Producer Michael tours the guest home Nile posits the guest house is more his cup-of-tea than the main estate itself. This really illustrates the power of fellow 20th century modern architect, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's notion that "Less is more".
