God doesn't need to know what time it is.


Value of anything is a most fascinating subject to me.

Eric Clapton hasn't owned this  Rolex Daytona for nearly 20 years. It 's probably been in storage since he dumped it and is expected to fetch north of $1.6M?

For that much I'd want his playing ability AND his stereo system.

One of the things i like about Rolex (although i don't own one) and part of what makes them popular among celebs is that Rolex is a 100% non-profit charitable institution--always has been.  Good on them.  Although watch collecting seems silly to many of us i'm sure our obsession with audio is silly to many of them...

@secretguy:  You and I agree on many things but sadly you are way off on Clapton.  Most of the great respected guitarists of all time (Albert Lee, Yngwee Malmsteen, Joe Bonamassa etc) all say Clapton is a fabulous improvisational talent and blues player--Yngwe saying Clapton's guitar on John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers album defines blues playing.  Is he the best of all time--no---is he a great guitar player--yes.  Would love to know what successful trained musician  thinks he's a "hack" ?  Oh and don't mention Ritchie Blackmore--his jealousy of Clapton is well known.  For the record Clapton thinks Albert Lee is the best.
