Must Have: Steve McQueen's Rolex Submariner
Included in Antiquorum's Important Collectors' Wristwatches auction on June 11 in NYC is the King of Cool's 1967 Rolex Submariner. McQueen wore the watch for many years (right) and it can be seen on-screen in his very last movie, 1980's The Hunter.Years ago I switched my Submariner for a GMT Master II, in order to add a dash of color, but I would gladly trade it in for this one. Antiquorum has a ludicrously low estimate of $10,000 - $20,000 on the watch; I wouldn't be surprised if it fetched 10 times that.
Also included in the sale is the 1969 Heuer Monaco chronograph McQueen wore in 1971's Le Mans, a pretty iconic watch in its own right, as well as a vintage 1929 Scott motorcycle customized by Von Dutch.
