Richard Gere

Stainless Steel & Gold Rolex Datejust

Richard Gere has had an amazing acting career that has spanned several decades and included movies like American Gigolo (1980), An Officer and Gentleman (1982), Breathless (1983), The Cotton Club (1984), Pretty Woman (1990), Primal Fear (1996), Runaway Bride (1999), Chicago (2002), and Arbitrage (2012). Richard Gere is pictured below sporting his two-tone Rolex Datejust.

Of course, Richard Gere is known for his rugged good looks and he was voted The Sexiest Man Alive by People Magazine in 1999.

American Gigolo1980 Mercedes-Benz 450SL
It could be argued that Richard Gere's Magnum Opus movie was American Gigolo. The famous opening screen can be seen below in the video, where he is driving his 450SL Mercedes-Benz down the Pacific Coast Highway, while Blondie's mega-hit song, "Call Me", plays in the background.

Last year on Jake's Mercedes Benz World I wrote an article about Richard Gere's Mercedes SL he drove, which is fascinating.

Pretty Woman1990 

Richard Gere also starred in the 1990 mega-hit, Pretty Woman, which costarred Julia Roberts. This was not only the ultimate chick-flick, but dudes loved it as well.

Richard Gere wore his two-tone Rolex Datejust in the movie Pretty Woman, as you can see in the screen grabs and press photos seen below.

In the two photos below, we see Richard Gere sporting his two-tone Rolex Datejust which he wore in the blockbuster movie Pretty Woman.

The MovieStar and the Model

Richard Gere was married to supermodel, Cindy Crawford from 1991 to 1995.

In the photo below we see Cindy Crawford with Richard Gere, and they are doing the wardrobe deal where they dress like twins, and if you look closely the are both wearing two-tone Rolex Datejust models :-)

2 Two-Tone Rolex Datejust Models?

Richard Gere has been a supporter of His Holiness, The 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet for many years. The first photo, taken in 1994, shows Richard Gere wearing his two-tone Rolex Datejust and in the second photo we see the Dalai Lama wearing his two-tone Rolex Datejust. Perhaps Richard Gere gave the Dalai Lama his Rolex Datejust?

Separated At Birth?

In the first photo we see Richard Gere sporting his Rolex Datejust on a Jubilee Bracelet and in the image below we have musician and founder of Pink Floyd, Roger Waters sporting his Rolex Datejust on a Jubilee bracelet.

For some reason, Richard Gere and Roger Waters seem to have the same vibe, especially their hairstyle and choice of Rolex Datejust on a Jubilee bracelet.
