Clapton & Rolex: Clapton Fans, May I Prevail Upon You?
Clapton and Rolex have had a protracted history. To my knowledge, this history extends back to 1983. (If you know differently, please correct me.) He has owned a number of Rolexes over time, and my question to you is: Which is your favorite?
I have an old video tape which captures a live performance ("Worried Life Blues") with Clapton and Buddy Guy at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club in London in late 1986. Clapton is wearing his stainless DJ with silver face - my personal favorite. What's yours? By all means, if you have any pictures to upload, this would be most appreciated.
