Rolex? I could buy a six pack of Rolexes with this watch.

Tom Perkins, the 0.00001%-er Silicon valley legend VC, has stood for the wealthy in a recent submission to WSJ and subsequently appeared in the interview on Bloomberg TV to defend himself.

In the interview he claimed that he could "buy a six pack of Rolexes with this watch"

Quite the article to start a debate, I'd love to avoid that but I cannot even comment on the watch as it's too blurry in the picture...

Can anybody identify this reference?

Yeah it's blurry but I'd guess a Richard Mille

I may have not written this properly, I know it's a Richard Mille but am not sure about the specific model.
