Thread: David Beckham's Rolex Deepsea /

  1. #1

    David Beckham's Rolex Deepsea /

    Well, even with all his cash he sticks with a Deepsea, that's got to say something about the desirability of the model -

    It does - it speaks volumes.
    A watch bought by people like Beckham.

    Not for me then. Sorry.

    I'm dubious. He's described variously as the "Greatest Soccer Player" and "David Beckhman". Greatest compared to what? To whom?

    That right there devalues the article for me. It also makes me question whether this is indicative of the greatness of the watch. Don't get me wrong, the watch is fine but I don't think this article or Beckhman's ownership prove anything...

    Hmmm.

    The indicies look dodgy.

    I've even PMd him telling him so.

    It is from 2009 so I suppose it was the newest watch there and then.

    I imagine he has summat else now. He may even put it on his left hand.

    Nothing against him at all :wink:

    It's a pity most of the other England players didn't have as much pride or passion playing for their country.

    For sure, as he drives his Ferrari to his beach front Malibu house I don't think he'll lose much sleep over negative comments posted
    on TZ-UK.


    It was/is a harmless link -it was not meant to be a style indicator to good taste, merely he can afford any watch in the world but wears a Deepsea....
    however it has to be said he's got 100 times more taste in watches than Christiano Ronaldo's big gold 4 dial monster....

    He doesn't always wear a watch with a methane ringpiece escape valve or whatever the firk it is, sometimes he displays good taste in the Rolex department

    I was taking the mickey out of the Deepsea appreciation thread, not of David Beckham or his achievements. The lad is a legend.

    No offence meant OP, he likes watches and he has a few, a number of which are Rolex and others too. Some may be cheaper, some more expensive. Some are worn to compliment his current style, some because the likes them.

    But the link was to a Rolex site, so unlikely to show him wearing his PP and it was over 18 months ago.

    PS: I think the DSSD is a great watch 8)

    Yes I agree with this,I doubt he has had to buy many watches lately though.
    If you were Rolex or Patek or whoever and he made enquires about one of your models,what would you do?

    David has good taste in watches but he is also a decent chap in my opinion. I expect he bought his own rolex or it was a present from friend or family.

    Yeah right. He went into a shop and asked for a Rolex. That's probably just a safe bet - if you have no taste, go for the well known brand. I have no taste in clothing (I'll assume, since I don't care), so if I needed, say, a smart suit I'd buy one from Dolce & Prada or something like that.

    That Ronaldo bloke at least made an effort (and failed miserably). Come on, you can't be that strict with them. They're footballers.

    OK, point well made- tomorrow instead of wearing jeans I'll wear my yellow chinos to prove I've got taste

    I can't understand why there is such a dislike of David Beckham he seems like a decent guy he spends time with his kids and does a lot of work for charity and was always passionate about playing for his country.

    Yes he has earned a lot of money by endorsements and playing football but maybe he is just a watch guy like us!! Give the guy a break he picked a deepsea not a Yacht-Master 2!!

    Well, Soros and his 7000 EUR PP Aquanaut probably scores an even lower
    watch value / total net worth
    value than Beckham. So that should be an ok watch too. Seen here:
    http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Sc8GzuU1qJo/T ... uanaut.jpg

    But now he seems to have another watch, what is this?

    Well, one things for sure....it isn't a pressie from her indoors ! It would probably be a Bi metal and diamond monstrosity if it were. She really was a mistake and if he'd married someone like ............anyone else really, he would have been far more loved in this country.

    Still, as I told my Mrs this morning, you can't help who you fall in love with, no matter how much you dislike them. It is our 11th anniversary and I was feeling romantic :blackeye:

    I love the DSSD and it won't influence my decision to buy and wear it just because famous knobheads wear the same model... loads of idiots like Nicky Hilton, Jessica Simpson etc wear Milgauss, Daytona, Subs etc etc and it hasn't deterred me from owning the same models..

    some people just buy because of the stigma that comes with owning a Rolex... reminds me of a guy at work.. I commented on his watch "hey, nice Daytona", to which he replied, "no, it's a Rolex!"

    here are a few shots of the DSSD... 8)

    Just to mix it up a little, did anyone else clock Zara Tindall (nee Phillips) sporting a DSSD in yesterdays Daily Telegraph article? I know she's a Rolex ambassador but it did look rather good . . . :wink:

    He has been wearing what appears to be a Daytona on a leather strap in the current series of Torchwood. On his right wrist though....

    I don't believe any choice of watch I've made would be influenced either more or less by any 'celebrities' wearing of the same.

    Really don't get why this thread had to go in this direction. David beckham's done lots for charity and it's a nice watch so that's all I see out of it.
