Dinner with Rolex 🥂
Not an incoming but still wanted to share !
Myself and my wife where lucky enough to be invited for dinner with our Ad and Rolex a couple of weeks back and just wanted to share what an amazing night it was with you guys, it truly was a fantastic evening. The 3 course Dinner was lovely especially the dessert ( I've got a sweet tooth ) got to try on a couple of the new 2024 releases and must say I really liked the new GMT after trying it on as I was on the fence until seeing it in person. We were sitting on a table with a couple of the guys from the AD Nicki & Derek and had a great laugh with them and to top it all off the guest speaker of the night was Sir Steve Redgrave 5 time Olympic gold medalist! I'm a huge fan of the Olympics, he was a super cool guy he even let us try on one of his gold medals. Can't thank the guys from the AD enough for the invite it really was a magical night. |

Steve looks like he could still do some damage with some oars!
Nice post, thanks for sharing! |

Awesome stuff. Looks like it was a fantastic event, and brilliant to have meet Sir Steve.
The word "legend" is thrown around too often these days, but Steve Redgrave certainly qualifies for it. Winning gold medals at 5 consecutive Olympics (and in an endurance event no less) is an unparalleled feat.
