Hi

On a previous thread form Taffi Abernathy Bill hit on Lance Armstrong as a Rolex Ambassador

As a cycling nut does anyone know what model he wears, apart from maybe the complete range!

Many thanks

More often than not it's been a GMT. However, a Daytona has been spotted as well.

Hi

Thanks to all for your replies. I must confess I,m not that up on GMT's.

Bill, you started me off on something thats gonna cost me!!

It looks like you were right and Dan is as prepared as they come.

Thanks to Golfster as well all your help is very much appreciated.

By the way is it the GMT Master pepsi or coke. My apologies for my ignorance.

All I have to do now is find one and a Tudor.

Dan are we brothers or something

Brothers? Cool, cause I have 3 sisters!

The GMT II came with 3 optional bezel inserts, all black [RockRolex special], red/ blue [pepsi], and black/ burgundy [Coke]. Two bracelet options as well: classic oyster or the dressier jubilee.

Thanks Dan. Brothers, has to be!

3 sisters! What was that like growing up. I had one and she had virtually left home by the time I came along.

Thanks for the GMT info. You have summed it up completely. I know now what I am looking for and as for the bracelet,is that an Oyster he is wearing on it?

Thanks again its very much appreciated.

All I have to do know is find one. This has jumped to the top of my wish list.

Si,
I still carry the mental scars from living with 3 sisters who's behavior created a weight that forever crushed my spirit.

Yes, Lance is wearing the classic and tough Rolex oyster bracelet.

It appears so

Crushed until there is nothing left.

As a big brother or little brother weren't you doted upon?

Mind you I worked in a place where there were two men (me and the boss) and the rest were female, all 38 of them, so I can empathize with you!

thanks again for the info. and about the Oyster.

Many thanks

Si.

I was 2nd oldest. Doted on??? Hell no! It was survival of the fittest! But my wife has 3 brothers and she's 2nd oldest too.
In all honesty the former CEO of my company is a women, I'm surrounded by women at home, and have a great relationship all of them and wouldn't have it any other way.

vapalux · 26 January 2009, 03:01 AM

Totally agree with you. Even my boss was 'the boss' at one time and like you I was surrounded and we had a whale of a time.

like you, I wouldn't have it any other way.

We gotta be brothers to much in common!

Lance just finished hjs comeback race after 3 years in retirement. He put in a very solid effort and made the whole race & State come alive.

A better Rolex embassador there could not be. He does so much for the battle against cancer.

Nica64 · 26 January 2009, 04:41 AM

I seen a lot pics of him wearing a GMT and a white Daytona.
