Netflix series Startup - watches

[7enderbender]

I’m watching “Startup” at the moment. Quite the assortment of Rolex models there between the various characters. And a lot of other product placement.
Does anyone know if this is just a producer with a thing for watches or if Rolex would actually engage in this kind of advertising?

Ron Perlman is in series two onwards and is a Producer of the show. He's a big Rolex fan and wears them onscreen regularly. I suspect his influence helps, but guessing that Ben Ketai cares for them too.
