France Says Au Revoir!
To One of it's Most Beloved Actors
Jean-Paul Belmondo, often referred to as 'Bé-bel' was a highly charismatic and beloved leading French actor was also a huge Rolex fan, as you can see in all the photos, including the one seen below taken in 1981 which shows him rocking a Submariner with Cyriel Claire.
Jean-Paul Belmondo possessed a certain perpetual Je ne sais quoi that transcends time. I was talking to Captain Danny, about Jean-Paul and he said "He had a Steve McQueen-like stature in French cinema".
In the next 4 images below and one above we see Jean-Paul wearing a Paul Newman 'Big Red' Daytona.
In the photo below from the 1977 Paris Match cover we see Jean-Paul Belmondo rocking his two-tone Rolex Datejust on a Jubilee bracelet.
Below we see the same photo but with better resolution.
