GQ: Eric Wind Wind’s & The Rolex “Paul Newman” Daytona reference 6263 In Crazy Rich Asians

Cam Wolf recently wrote for GQ ‘Why Great Watches Are More Important in Movies and TV Than Ever’. Within the article, Wolf mentions Eric Wind’s involvement in the Rolex “Paul Newman” Daytona reference 6263 featured in Crazy Rich Asians.

“Watches also make great gifts for one character to give to another. When Crazy Rich Asians author Kevin Kwan needed a way to convey that Gemma Chan’s character was a loving woman of great means and exquisite taste, the famed dealer Eric Wind recommended a scene in which she gives her (cheating) husband a Rolex “Paul Newman” Daytona reference 6263.”
