Tiger Woods Rolex DeepSea

I think Tiger Woods was wearing a Rolex Deepsea during presser after winning the Arnold Palmer Invitational today.
The watch looks like a small tank on his wrist. Looks good.
Your thoughts?

Take Care All

Tiger has been wearing a DSSD all week at the Arnold Palmer. I honestly haven't seen him in anything other than the DSSD in a few months (other than the Basel video). He also wears a DJII in dressier wear.

Im honestly not sure if Fed and Tiger were actually given the SkyDweller then or just promised it to them later. I'm sure they probably were but don't know this to be fact. I saw Fed the other day after Basel and he was wearing a Daytona. I don't keep up with tennis but follow golf on a daily basis. I haven't seen any of the ambassadors wearing the Sky Dweller other than in the videos.

Oh yes, it's the BEAST all right! He certainly wears it very nicely also.

TY. That was the Chevron World Challenge at Sherwood trophy there. The DSSD getting some good air time. If he gets on a tear Rolex will really get some great advertising with him holding trophys. Its really a perfect watch for him because he is OBSESSED with diving and spearfishing. Im watching the Rerun of the tournament today to see what he wears at the trophy presentation. I missed it earier as I had to run out for dinner.

Edit: Golf Central didn't show the ceremony but this AM he was wearing the DSSD so I'm sure that's what he had on after the round.

Tiger walked into the Rolex marketing video where they presented him with the new SKD - He took of the DSSD he had on his wrist to try it on. He is clearly a fan of the DSSD - and who can blame him. The watch suits him to a tee....perfect. And no - it seems the SKD is not for him.

He does love that watch. IMO it really says something about the watch that he was wearing it before Rolex picked him up. He could have any watch in the world and chose the cheap (for him), simple, iconic look of Rolex. I know the DSSD has a bit more "style" than other Rolexs but still very simple compared to other offerings on the market.

I watched that press conference and that watch looked like a beast on his wrist.

It looks like he's trying for the "Jersey Shore" look with that watch on

Likely planned. Were I the agent, that's how I'd do it.

That's comedy, coming from somebody who has Don Johnson from Miami Vice as his Avatar.

I think the DSSD looks fantastic on Tiger. It is cool that a person who can make one phone call and choose any watch in the Rolex stable seems to like a SS sport model as his daily wearer. The DSSD is a great choice.

TY for sharing. I've seen him in a DJII most recently. He was wearing a SS watch at the Trasitions Championship (which he won) so I guess it was probably the DSSD.
