Orlando Bloom's Rolex Collection for Sale

"Three amazing Rolex watches from the collection of actor Orlando Bloom are included in Antiquorum's Important Collectors' Wristwatches auction in New York on June 11. Our favorite is this fine and rare 1973 Explorer II "Steve McQueen" model, highly prized by Rolex aficionados, which Bloom wore on a leather cuff bracelet, estimated at $10,000 - $15,000, though we expect it to fetch considerably more. There's also a black PVD-coated steel Milgauss anti-magnetic chronometer produced in 2008, estimated at $10,000 - $15,000, and a cool 1969 Explorer, estimated at only $3,000 - $4,000. All of Bloom's watches come accompanied by an autographed copy of the auction catalog, and he is donating part of the proceeds to UNICEF."

Thanks Frank.

The Steve M Exp II should fetch at least 2 x that price. A regular 16550 goes for more than that in Japan.

I thought the prices were a bit conservative. Perhaps they built in a current economic condition factor.

Damn, why do you need to be an actor to bag a Victoria Secret model? TOTALLY not fair!
