Notice the Rolex chronograph located in the upper right hand corner has a Tiffany & Co designation on the dial and none of the watches have a Daytona designation on their dials.
Marcello's Ultra-Rare Big Crown Military Submariner
[Reference 6538A]
This is an ultra-rare (Milsub) Military Submariner, and to the best of my knowledge, it is the first Single-Red Rolex Submariner. Single-Red referring to the red depth rating located on the lower part of the dial. This watch also has the rare Big Winding Crown as well as the 3-6-9 Explorer dial, and the red upside-down pyramid at the top of the bezel insert.

...Two-Time Superbowl and NCAA Winning Football Coach...
Rolex Coolness: Jimmy Johnson
From Cowboys Coach to Survivor Nicaragua
Yellow Gold Rolex President
I figured since we saw the Superbowl yesterday, it would make sense to take a look at Jimmy Johnson, who had an amazing career as college football player as well as being the Coach for the Dallas Cowboys, which he brought to victory in by winning back-to-back Superbowl titles in 1992 and 1993.
The screenshots in this post are from the movie named HOME, which is the most hauntingly beautiful masterpiece movies I have ever seen, and it has some of the most stunning videography I have ever seen. You can watch HOME for free on YouTube and I promise it will completely blow your mind...enjoy, and think about it...
I recommend you switch the YouTube player to 720p and play it full screen...
"When I started to make a little bit of scratch, I thought it was time to get a Rolex." –John Mayer (On getting his first Rolex which was a Rolex Explorer II with the Polar White Dial).
"Who do I want to be today through this piece? It dictates a little bit of a mood." –John Mayer (on selecting which watch to choose to wear each day).
It's that time of the year again and it's almost time for the Superbowl!!! This 2011 Mercedes Superbowl commercial is amazing!!!! Especially, with Janis Joplin singing "Lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz" in the background...
It is remarkable how similar Mercedes and Rolex are as brands if you think about it. I often say Rolex is the Mercedes of watches, and it is really cool in this video to see Mercedes playing up their amazing heritage. In recent years Rolex has gotten much more into playing up their heritage, and I believe Rolex should delve much deeper into showcasing their amazingly wealthy heritage as their ultimate marketing vehicle.
2011 Chevy Camaro Superbowl Commercial
This one is pretty entertaining and a good looking car...
Historically Rolex has always been extremely secretive and discreet, and no journalists in the past have ever been invited "INSIDE ROLEX" to explore and report on all four Rolex Manufacturing faclities in Switzerland.
In November 2013, this changed when Rolex invited Jake to take an unprecdented journey into the heart of Rolex to learn and report on everything he witnessed and learned.
