  Introduction:Rolexhas always been the king of watches in people's hearts, and many people loveRolex, including this seasoned watch enthusiast—Shawn Yue.

  Shawn Yue is trulyRolexa die-hard fan of, with various vintage Rolex watches on his collection list. If pressed to name a favourite, it would likely be the one he has worn from a few years ago until nowRolexPaul Newman Daytona.

  It can often be seen at film events and important magazine shoots. Originally, this black-and-white dial Daytona was not very striking when it was first released, until the veteran actor Paul Newman wore this model in "Winning", after which it gradually became known to the public and slowly became a "darling" in the eyes of collectors.

  And the second place in Shawn Yue's heart should be the first-generation anti-magnetic Rolex Milgauss with the lightning bolt hand.

  Its appearance rate is no less than that of the Paul Newman Daytona. This vintage model, introduced in 1958, features a pink inverted triangle at the 12 o'clock position and a lightning-bolt-shaped hand, making it look flashy and unique. It is only natural that it was chosen by a trendy guy like Shawn Yue.

  In 2016, when Shawn Yue was asked what his most satisfying purchase at the time was, he replied: a vintage Rolex Oman watch.

  In fact, this was a gift Shawn Yue gave to himself for his 35th birthday. The red khanjar (double dagger) symbol on the dial is the national emblem from the flag of the Sultanate of Oman. This watch was specially commissioned by the then King, Sultan Qaboos, to honour the British Military SAS stationed there for their meritorious service in quelling the rebellion during the Dhofar War, and was presented exclusively to the SAS troops. No wonder Shawn Yue has expressed his love for it on Instagram more than once.

  In addition to showing off his watches, Shawn Yue also knows how to highlight his taste in his overall styling. Although T-shirts and jeans are his go-to trendy gear, when it comes to individual items, Shawn Yue always chooses simple and comfortable basics. Finally, paired with his beloved watch and a cool expression, a trend icon instantly appears.
