The Return Of The Maxi Marker

Since we see Brad Pitt in the photo above rocking his platinum and stainless steel Rolex Yacht-Master, I though I would include this screen grab taken from a past Rolex.com. Cool watch and cool dude!!!! BTW, the platinum and stainless Yacht-Master was the first modern Rolex to bring back the Maxi Markers, and it is still one good looking watch!!!




In 2000 Brad Pitt completed a marketing campaign named "Nothing But Rolex", for a Japanese Rolex dealer named Evance, and the video below as well as some of the photos in this article are from that campaign. It is rumored that ad campaign was not authorized by Rolex in Geneva.







Oceans 13
Rolex GMT-Master

Brad Pitt wore a yellow gold Rolex GMT-Master in the movie Ocean's 13, as seen in the photos below.






The trailer for Ocean's 13 can be seen below, and I remember when I first saw it. It was a really great movie.











The photo below shows Brad Pitt on the set of Oceans 13, just as he got up after talking with George Clooney. You can see hime wearing his yellow gold Rolex GMT-Master in the photo below.









Rolex Day-Date II

This next set of photos of Brad Pitt—taken in 2009—wearing a yellow gold Rolex Day-Date II was taken in Basel Switzerland at an art gallery where Brad purchased a painting for $1Million.


Notice that Brad's glasses match his Rolex Day-Date II




Here is a photo of the same model of Rolex Day-Date II that Brad is wearing. It has a black dial with black arabic markers.




This next photo shows Brad Pitt at the premier of his movie titled Inglourius Basterds, in Germany, and he is wearing his Day-Date II.









Brad Pitt's Wives

Brad Pitt has been married twice. His first wife was famous actress and Rolex fan, Jennifer Aniston who he is pictured below with. Sadly the couple got divorced after he fell in love with Angelina Jolie, while he was working with her on a movie, Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Brad was married to Jennifer from 2000-2005.




Brad Pitt married fellow actress Angelina Jolie in 2014 after being together for 11 years, and they are currently going through a divorce. The couple is pictured below. Brad and Angelina have 6 children together.




Angelina Jolie
Vanity Fair Cover July 2008

I remember when I first saw this Vanity Fair Magazine cover with Academy Award Winner, Angelina Jolie on the cover. I was in Safeway walking past the Magazine section, and this cover literally stopped me in my tracks, like somebody locked up the brakes!!!

I have heard people say they believe Angelina Jolie is the most beautiful woman in the world, and these Vanity Fair photos definitely support that notion. 







...Tudor Coolness...

Brad Pitt
GQ Style Summer 2017


Tudor Heritage

Black Bay Bronze

Brad Pitt is pictured below in a photo from the 2017 GQ Style Summer issue, and he is wearing a Bronze Tudor Heritage Black Bay Bronze watch, which is very cool. This great photo of Brad Pitt is from a GQ Style story named: "Brad Pitt Talks Divorce, Quitting Drinking, and Becoming a Better Man."


Tudor is owned by Rolex, and the Tudor Heritage Black Bay Bronze Brad Pitt is wearing in the photo above is pictured below. This watch is very cool and has an updated size of 43MM. Brad is also wearing it on the standard Tudor aged leather strap, which gives it an awesome vintage look. Tudor watches are much less expensive that Rolex watches, and this model retails for only $3,975.

Rolex Explorer II 1655 and 226570



 

...Rolex Studio Shot of the Day...


Rolex Explorer II


Old Meets New


The Rolex Explorer II 1655 becomes the reflection of the newest model, the Rolex Explorer II 226570 released in April 2021.





Captain Danny, is testing a beta version of iOS16 on his iPhone, and he shared this image with me where he brilliantly used the image above as his wallpaper. As you can see Captain Danny is taking advantage of the new unlock screen widget to keep track in 4 times zones, which is amazing for a pilot.

Rolex Giraglia

 

ROLEX GIRAGLIA


Founded in 1953, the Rolex Giraglia is one of the Mediterranean’s most adored regattas, renowned for the camaraderie among its competitors. Following the disruptions of recent years, the 2022 edition returned to its traditional format: an arrival race from Sanremo, three days of inshore races off Saint-Tropez, followed by the headline offshore race to Genoa via the fabled Giraglia Rock. Light winds prompted the 241-nautical mile (446km) course to be reduced by some 35nm to help the majority of the 141-strong international fleet finish before the cut-off time. 

Ker 46 boat Lisa R was overall winner on handicap while Magic Carpet Cubed took line honours for a third time in the race after a fascinating duel with fellow 100-ft (30.48m) maxi ARCA SGR. Rolex has partnered this event – organized by the Yacht Club Italiano in collaboration with the Société Nautique de Saint-Tropez – since 1998 as part of its decades-long support for yachting.
