100th Birthday
Paul Newman is most famous in the world of Rolex for having rocked his trademark exotic dial Rolex Daytona which his wife, Joanne Woodward gave him in 1971 as a gift. Paul's actual Rolex Daytona pictured above in the image on his wrist is also pictured below in real life. This watch famously sold at auction by Philipps Auction house for over $17 Million dollars.
Paul Newman famously wore this model from 1972 until 1985, when he gave it to his daughter's boyfriend, and it then disappeared into antiquity for decades, but images of him wearing it remained.
As part of the 100 year celebration of Paul Newman's life and times, I will be sharing a great deal of invaluable insight into both his career and his Rolex watches.
Sometime in the next few weeks, I plan to share an amazing brand new story with some fascinating Paul Newman content so be sure to stay tuned...
