Other: Is this the most ironic vintage Rolex? It certainly has to be one of them... Here we have Rolex as one of the world's most prestigious, luxurious, and valuable companies on the planet, featuring a cheap Pizza chain logo on the dial! But how did these watches come about? You can read the juicy details all over the web from publications like Gear Patrol, Bob's Watches, and even GQ (yes, having a Domino's Pizza logo on your Rolex is a serious flex). We recommend also reading this great new article from Cam Wolf at GQ on How the Domino's Pizza Rolex Helped Make Branded Watches Desirable. This particular watch is in top condition and remains totally honest, original, and unpolished. This collector-grade example of the Domino's Rolex 5500 Air-King features a prominent "Big Logo" dial with Tritium lume in perfect condition. The original 78350 Rolex Oyster bracelet is fully linked and has never been sized - a collector's dream... Whenever possible, we recommend purchasing a Domino's Pizza Rolex with its original caseback engraving in tact from "T.S.M." (Domino's Pizza Founder, Thomas Stephen Monaghan). This lends further provenance to the award watch. Speaking of provenance, this watch was acquired from the son-in-law of the original owner. He recalled his father-in-law getting flown down to Florida by the Domino's CEO to be presented with this watch for his achievements with the franchise.
