What's the over/under on Jack Nicklaus's Rolex?

Post by nessism »

Jack's selling his Rolex in support of one of his charities. Does this watch command similar value to Newman's? Jack may not be as "cool" as Cool Hand Luke, but many golf guys got the bank and this watch has been photographed in 12/18 of Jack's major tournament win photos. It's gotta be worth some major coinage!

I actually loled when the golf digest article said a "similar" Rolex of Newman's sold for $17 mil. No way it'll be worth close to Newman's Daytona. It's "just" an 1803 and it's not as much a piece of horological significance.

I think it'll still be worth something relatively huge but I'd put the o/u at like $1 million.
I wish that watch were 38mm?
