On another forum I used to attend, there was a great Rolex filmography that discussed all the movies of Rolex wearers....Something like that would be great to start here if anyone has that information. PADI???

I was lucky enough to go to the Australian Open Tennis and even luckier to see the Womans Final and the mens final, do you the first thing Roger did after winning, he walked to his bag and pulled out a plastic bag and proceeded to put on you guessed it a Rolex. Here is a photo I took of him with his Roller and of course Australian Open Trophy

That's a damn tasty Indian dish - Chicken biryani with cooling white "Raita" (made out of curd and vegetables) on top.

The Rolex on the Swiss bank guy's wrist was a gold presidential rolex.

As for Federer, he switches between 2 or 3, I think it depends on which one Rolex wants him to wear.

I agree JJ. I think we should all get paid. I publicize them in the classroom when I teach (as I wear it, and the students typically ask about them).

Ahhh yes, chicken biryani, one of my all- time fave things to eat. It's comfort food. JJ, try it with some masalah sauce over it, raita on the side and LEMON PICKLE (on a side dish) ! Larry

"Shooter"

In the movie "Shooter", I believe a TT Sub or GMT can be spotted on the wrist of the Senator's character.

Enjoy!
