Rolex Marlon Brando Wore in ‘Apocalypse Now’ Is Heading to Auction
btkm8unsl0w5r4
The once though lost GMT Master has been found and is for auction. Given what happened to Daytonas after the Paul Newman I wonder will the GMT master get a big bump. Cant see it going anywhere near the Paul Newman but Brando was an interesting character but a bit of a dick by all accounts.

Mad how these things pop up. It looks in very good nick, sans bezel of course. He apparently removed the bezel himself? I'd reckon the story about him being asked to remove it for the film is apocryphal. Never mind that it would be more realistic as Rolex were available in US military PX's and were bought by a fair few soldiers at the time. As was the Seiko Diver Martin Sheen wore in the same flic. That particular watch seems to have disappeared, but who knows? It might show up.
