Fleetwood Mac Keeping Time With Rolex



Fleetwood Mac


Timeless Icons Like Rolex

As summer sweeps across the Northern Hemisphere, concert season ignites, bringing the magic of live music to fans everywhere. Few bands capture this spirit like Fleetwood Mac, one of history’s most iconic and beloved groups. Their 1977 masterpiece, Rumours, remains a cornerstone of rock, ranking among the best-selling albums ever, surpassed only by Michael Jackson’s Thriller and The Eagles’ Greatest Hits (1971-1975).


Much like Rolex, Fleetwood Mac embodies timeless excellence. Both are global symbols of enduring quality—Rolex with its precision craftsmanship, and Fleetwood Mac with their soulful harmonies and unforgettable hits. Whether it’s the tick of a Rolex or the rhythm of “Go Your Own Way,” both keep perfect time, uniting generations in admiration.

I remember the first time I ever saw Fleetwood Mac play live. It was on July 24, 1976, at Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. I remember how amazing their music was and I remember how stunningly gorgeous, charismatic and mesmerizing Stevie Nicks was on stage.


The video below, shot in 1977 features Fleetwood Mac singing their hit song "Dreams."

"Thunder Only Happens When It's Raining. Players only love you when they're playing."




Stevie Nicks

At least four of Fleetwood Mac's members wear Rolex watches as seen below. Let's begin by looking at Stevie Nicks wearing a two-tone ladies Datejust.


One of Stevie Nicks most iconic songs is Landslide which is hypnotically beautiful.

Next lets look at Mick Fleetwood, founding drummer of Fleetwood Mac in a recent photos wearing his yellow gold Rolex Submariner. By the way, Mick Fleetwood is pictured on the cover of the Fleetwood Mac album Rumors, which is pictured at the beginning of this story.

John McVie is pictured below in 1967, just before joining Fleetwood Mac and he is wearing his Rolex GMT-Master. This photo was taken before he joined Fleetwood Mac, and at the time he was in a band named John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers.

The two videos below feature Christie McVie singing lead vocals on one of Fleetwood Macs most iconic songs named:  "You Make Loving Fun".




One of my favorite Fleetwood Mac songs is named "Hypnotized", which they recorded back in 1975 when Bob Welch was still in their band, and you can see that below.
