Rolex Datejust ref. 116200

Rolex Submariner ref. 116200

Neistat’s Rolex Datejust ref. 116200 is a classic timepiece with a simple white dial, bar hour markers, and a roulette date wheel. The bezel and case are made of stainless steel, in line with the classy look. Powering it is a caliber 3135 automatic movement.
In one of his videos, Neistat explained that he only wears watches that are pretty tough and unbreakable; hence the G-Shock choices. He stated that “I don’t have nice things, because I break everything.” However, he received a Rolex Datejust from his parents-in-law as a wedding present. He only wore it when his wife gifted him a black Everest rubber strap, which is very similar to G-Shock bands. Later on, he also received a white strap. Unfortunately, he still broke his Rolex when he accidentally fell from his Boosted Board while vlogging. The watch stopped working even though the crystal glass looks fine and undamaged.

In another video, Neistat seems comfortable wearing an 18k yellow gold Rolex Submariner ref. 16618 while reviewing the DJI Mavic Mini drone. This Rolex Submariner is a 40mm timepiece with a black dial and bezel (although there are also pieces with blue dial and bezel, still ref. 16618).  The crystal window is made of flat sapphire and comes with a cyclops lens. It has an oyster bracelet with a wetsuit extension. Powered by Rolex caliber 3135 automatic movement, it shows the time with running seconds and the date.
Since he didn’t talk about the watch in the said video, some watch geeks are examining (and questioning) if it’s really an 18k yellow gold Rolex Sub. They have noticed that the aluminum bezel insert has silver markers when it should be gold-toned. This may be due to the reflection on the camera or perhaps Neistat spray painted it as he did with his friend’s Apple Watch.

Apple Watch Series 4

Apple Watch

Neistat seems to have several Apple Watches. On one, he replaced the original band with a Louis Vuitton strap made from an old Louis Vuitton handbag. Then there’s also an Apple Watch he lost last year while surfing after he changed the band to one with Velcro. Regardless, he believes that Apple Watch is compressed with functions that are too much for what he actually needs, yet he is still frequently seen wearing one.

Well, the Apple Watch is indeed packed with features, as you may expect from a smartwatch. It uses the WatchOS5 operating system; has NFC, WiFi, Bluetooth, and GPS/Glonass/Galileo connectivity, and various sensors like accelerometer, barometer, gyro, ECG electrode, optical heart rate, and ambient light.  It is also equipped with an Apple dual-core 64-bit S4 processor, an LTPS OLED Retina display, and 16GB internal storage. Its battery life is advertised to last up to 18 hours. It is dust-resistant and water-resistant. Considering all these, we’ve listed over a dozen Cool Things to Do With Your Apple Watch.
