Cocobean,
If I'm not mistaken, Brad Pitt is not officially a Rolex ambassador. He used to be one for Tag Heur until they signed on Leonardo Dicaprio recently.
But Brad is known to be a Rolex fan and in the past he did model Rolex watches for a Japanese watch retailer called Evance. Legend has it that he was responsible for a sudden surge in Explorer 1 demand in Japan when his ads appeared there. This guy can sell watches!

Yea, that make lots of sense , japs known to be loyal Rolex fans , and having this watch on Brad's wrist surely boost the sales by huge margin . Can't deny the power/influence of public icon e.g. Stallon = Panerai , Anorld = AP , 007 = Omega , Tiger Woods = Rolex and etc...

Hi Scott,
Brad can be seen wearing Rollies in all three, Ocean 11 ~ 13, despite the fact that he was still Tag's ambassador. I doubt Rolex paid any product placement fees in those movies. I think in Ocean 13 he was wearing the new GMT II.
