Who Wears Rolex? Celebrities and Their Luxury Watches
Many notable figures likely influence the number of Rolex wearers. Here is a short list of famous Rolex wearers and the timepieces they own.
1. Robert Downey Jr – Rolex GMT-Master II
Robert Downey Jr. is not only renowned for his iconic roles in blockbuster movies but also his passion for luxury watches. He has an extensive collection from various prestigious brands, including Rolex.
One notable piece in his collection is the GMT-Master II. The actor has been seen wearing a customized version of the GMT-Master II, created by the Bamford Watch Department. This unique timepiece features a sleek black glossy finish and is often referred to as the Rolex “Ghost”.
Within the Rolex collection, the GMT-Master II is highly acclaimed and it’s no surprise that several celebrities own one. Many watches in this series are given unique nicknames, inspired by their distinctive bezel colors.
2. Mark Wahlberg – Rolex Oyster Perpetual Tiffany Blue
In recent years, turquoise blue has gained remarkable popularity among watch collectors, admired for its versatility and suitability for both men and women.
Rolex also embraced this trend, offering the Oyster Perpetual in a chic light turquoise, often referred to as Rolex Tiffany Blue due to its resemblance to the signature color of the Tiffany & Co. jewelry brand. One celebrity spotted wearing this stylish timepiece is Mark Wahlberg.
The watch is crafted in a 36mm Oystersteel case with a domed bezel. The dial features meticulously applied hour markers and a hand-fitted crown, while the highly legible Chromalight display with long-lasting blue luminescence ensures readability even in low-light conditions.
3. David Beckham – Rolex Submariner
If you’re an enthusiast of both luxury watches and sports, you’re likely aware that David Beckham is one of the most renowned athletes known for his extensive collection of luxury timepieces, including those from Rolex.
Among his prized possessions are pieces from the revered Rolex Submariner series. While the exact count of Submariners in his collection remains a mystery, Beckham has been spotted sporting vintage classics like the 5512 and 5513, reminiscent of the original Submariner’s timeless design.
These models are considered the ancestors of today’s steel Submariners and exude an unmistakable charm with their simple yet elegant features. Notably, the 5513 holds a special place in pop culture, having graced the wrists of James Bond actors in the past.
In addition to his vintage treasures, Beckham also boasts a more modern Submariner, a sleek and stylish companion frequently spotted in media coverage.
