That kind of looks like a gloss dial and white gold surrounds. Could that just be a 16610?

He's a huge collector of vintage Rolex. His son was pictured on Instagram recently wearing one of his dads subs.

She was always the least popular of the five, and her nickname of Posh was ridiculous, my classmate used to go out with Baby in school, but they broke up before she hit the big time so no real zigazigaa for him.

Mel B filed for divorce today, so looks like no 'zigazigaa' for Mr Belafonte too

Any desire I had for a vintage sub has gone seeing that.

Such a &@£;, he did loads of charity stuff just to get a knighthood and be called sir.

He is so fake and such a nasty piece of work, just search google and check out the articles and his quotes like 'it's my f/(,!£&g money'.

There is something in that photograph that should have been flipped a long time ago.

Wow, if that's a euphemistic way of saying he should have traded his wife in, then that's vile. This forum is usually above such sexist rubbish..

He certainly hasn't come off well in the UK press recently has he? Some of the content of the leaked emails painted him in a very different light, especially regarding his sense of entitlement for a knighthood.

Vile, Sexist, wow you sound like a big wet lettuce that has been reading Hilary's PC manual. I can assure you I know a lot more about this woman than you do and I repeat, he should have flipped a long time ago. You can remove that picture of the Spice girls from your bedside table now.

Yeah, great when you are asking other people to donate a lot of money so you look good for raising it, but won't put your own in.

Personal insults, guesses about my political affiliations, really?? This forum is usually a classy place where people talk watches with an unusual degree of decency and respect for the web. I have no idea what VB is like [and I have no reason to think you do either] but that sort of comment does suck. You don't "trade in" wives and flip them like you do watches. If you can't see that's vile and sexist then you have my sympathies. But please go easy on the personal remarks and stick to watches...

Well well well precious, you are not going to let it go are you, that's not very classy. Personal insults, really ? So you throw them about regarding a light hearted watch related joke and that's okay. Should stick to watches, yet you comment otherwise, but that's okay as well. Double standards or maybe you are auditioning for 'loose women', I don't know but I do happen to know a lot more about this individual than you do but can't disclose fully on an open forum. Trust me, to say she is a nightmare is an understatement.

Patronise away, you really are most revealing about your attitudes to women. Also, it shouldn't really need saying but since you have twice told me you know more than me [that great trope of the anonymous web: "I know them personally but I can't reveal how", oakay...] I have no idea who you are or what you do or who you do actually know. And likewise you don't know me, other than I love watches and hate glib sexism. You don't know where I work, who I know, or what I do and I'm certainly not going to be provoked in to meaningless anonymous bragging. Ach, I suspect there is no basis for a constructive discussion here so I'll leave you to it. Enjoy your watches, and your evening and let us all be kinder to one another.

He's not aging so well.

Was at a Lakers game and saw him sporting a Deep Sea. He's got good style no doubt as he cares a lot.

Get a grip. Typical snowflake attitude, deducing that anything that does not suit you, must be greeted with the same tired old politically correct insults. Maybe we can arrange a 'safe space' for you, so you can just listen to jokes that you like and you won't have to be offended anymore.

DB also seems to wear a vintage gold 36mm DJ on a leather band, I'm not a particular fangirl but I must say he wears his vintage Rolex collection very well. Nicely understated.. Also remember the court-side shots of him and Gordon Ramsay a few years back comparing sea-dwellers, but it looks like he prefers vintage these days... Brooklyn seems to be wearing a vintage no date sub on a large leather cuff, looks a bit too much watch for someone so young, but maybe that's just my sour grapes at money being no object!
