Bernie is a big Rolex fan, and has an amazing collection of Rolex watches. He was recently interview by Rick Beato and not only do we see him rocking his Batman GMT-Master, but he also shares his absolutely fascinating story of lifetime achievement and how his career with Sir Elton John started out with humble beginnings.
