    That Rolex Daytona-Le Mans is gorgeous. It's all the more special considering the collaboration between the two sanctioning bodies IMSA and the ACO. They converged on regulations so cars from one series can race in the other.

    Watches worn without setting the time or date reminds me of the African Gold display at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, where they have solid gold bracelets that are in the shape of a watch that were worn by tribal chiefs to show power and status but don't tell time. Just like a broken clock, even these are correct twice a day, though!

    I wonder what Tiffany’s thinks about these “Tiffany Blue” watches since they fell out with makers like Rolex decades ago. Tiffany’s New York sold regular Rolex watches with “Tiffany & Co.” stamped on the dial until one day Rolex wanted to remove the stamp. So Tiffany’s said they’ll no longer sell Rolex without their name on the product. So that was the end of that relationship.
    Now those vintage Tiffany & Co stamped Rolex watches are worth $$$$. And they definitely didn’t have Tiffany Blue dial faces back then but it would’ve been cool to
