Icon10 Rolex Collectables

Hi Fellow Rolex Enthusiasts,

This is my first time posting on The Rolex Forum.

I've recently unpacked & decided to dedicate a display of all the memorabilia that I had collected over the years. I figure it would be best to share it with those that share the same "illness" as I do.

Please share your thoughts & personal collections.

3 years from signing up to making the first post. Seems like you were too busy collecting this Rolex gear. Could we maybe see some closer photos of the unique stuff?

Great collection and photo in your first post. Thanks for sharing.

Some really cool stuff. I too am interested in knowing about those Rolex mirrors. Also, what is under the golf balls. Are those picture frames or a watch case?

Welcome to the group. I am up to eight Rolexes, and never received any gifts other than two wallets. Good stuff!

Cool stuff. I like the golf balls pouch. Are these stuff normal free event give-away or they are for purchase?

They are promo items given away on occasion by ADs and the like.

You can spend $30k on a watch and get a ball point pen or note pad.

Whoopee!
