He wore it on many different bracelets right? I have seen him with it on oyster, jubilee, leather and nato. Anyone know what it came on originally, I take it they were only avail on oyster or was there a jubilee option?

It's interesting how you can tell he purposely has the watch in view of the camera.

Very nice! I'm convinced he could wear a piece of dental floss around his wrist and make it look cool! 👍

Actually, Steve McQueen was the "King of Cool" and he wore a meters first 5512 Rolex Sub (on his right wrist).

My wife says that he would have looked even "cooler" buck naked....
