If you want the daytona shirts, wait until after Saturday this week, you are likely to find the 2007 versions all over ebay.

I checked out ebay and they had the nice sold colour polo's with just the ROLEX name and crown above it in gold lettering on the left-breast of the shirt.
I was seriously considering buying/bidding on it, but where exactly would you wear a shirt like this?????????? Although I wear Polo or Lacoste golf-t's at work as we have a business casual environment, I think that wearing one of these ROLEX T's wouldn't go over too well. It would be considered showing off I think. Wearing a Rolex and people knowing about it in the office place is one thing, but reminding them about it all the time may create resentment. Wearing it outside of work in public could mean trouble. It would be no different than walking up to every single stranger and showing them your watch. Who knows, the wrong person may see it and mug you. You'd be a walking target. The only other place I could see wearing a shirt like this is at a Country Club or Golf Course or in some real ritzy side of town. Places like this tend to be safer and not carry a bad element. I'm undecided ![]() |

I thought the same thing. I bought a white Polo / Ralph Lauren shirt that actually had the Rolex name and crown embroidered where the horse normally is. That came across as very rare to me, but I have some Augusta National shirts that are like that (Regular Ralph Lauren Polo shirt with the USA/Flag logo instead of the horse), so I know that those types of shirts exist. Anyway, once I got it home, I couldn't feel comfortable wearing it anywhere for those reasons above, mainly because it just seemed like it was a little too 'in your face'. I wore it once, to Augusta National actually and it's been in the closet ever since. I like the funny comment about the shoes - I love shoes and have bought my wife several nice pair that she would have never bought herself (Manolo crocs, Jimmy Choo mules, etc.).

I like the Rolex hat, shirts, but I do not think it would be wise to wear a Rolex clothing in public. If you live in a place where you wear coats and jackets, you can wear a million dollar watch with no problems.If you are in warmer climates, no cigar.

I find the Rolex golf shirts a little too much in terms of being in your face. I guess I prefer to be a little more discreet. The only obvious labels that I wear are the Lacoste croc or Burberry knight and those are pretty small.
If anyone is looking at my shoes, they will be disappointed since I usually wear comfort shoes. And no one recognizes my watch so I'm safe. :) |

Watch ephemora shows your love for the hobby. Having said that, it seems wearing ROLEX on your body could be misconstrued as showing off. I did find a cool polo on ebay that shows my love for Kentucky and Rolex without screaming too loud.
