Why it looks just right on Rossi's wrist. He doesn't need a 16610.

YM added to Rossi's Rolex Collection

Rossi spotted wearing the rose YM, I noticed it during his qualifying press conference last week in Mugello and sure enough a quick google search confirmed. Hoping to see him back at the front in Barca, after his engine blew in Mugello the race wasn't quite the same.

I never knew Rossi was a Rolex fan, as he had a JLC model made for him.....
However, that was quite a few years ago and I guess his exclusivity contract would not longer be operative.
I'm impressed he bought his whole garage crew Rolex watches.
Rossi is an incredible rider, one of the greatest in history.

He is used to wear Rolex timepieces. I live in a small town a few km from Him, so I sometimes see Him in person. His AD is the same of mine ;)

That's awesome, I met him once in the US and he was very down to earth. If ever make the pilgrimage to Tavuilla I'll let you know

Rossi is the GOAT, for sure. I wish Casey Stoner was still around to give him some grief, but it seems like Marq and Lorenzo are doing just fine in that department!

I'd love to get to a MotoGP event one of these days.
