Franz von Holzhausen Paul Newman Rolex Daytona

Franz von Holzhausen 

Paul Newman Rolex Daytona

For a while now, I have been trying to get a close look at Tesla Lead Designer, Franz Von Holzhausen's vintage Rolex Daytona, as I can't help but wonder or speculate as to wether or not he is wearing Paul Newman's own black dial Daytona? 

Update on December 21, 2024: Bryan wrote in and said, "Just thought I’d give you a heads up.  The watch Franz is wearing is not a Rolex Daytona but a Breitling 765 AVI / Co-Pilot Panda from the 1963 era.  You can even slightly see the large lime 15 sec timer or right sub dial." I am so embarrassed, but I still love the look of Franz's Breitling, which is a really cool looking watch!!!

The photo above appears courtesy of the Wall Street Journal and it shows Franz Von Holzhausen sitting in the back of a prototype Tesla CyberTruck. The image below shows Franz Von Holzhausen in a recent video where we see a close up of his Daytona—which looks super cool!!!!

The screen grabs above that show Franz Von Holzhausen showing off and discussing the Tesla CyberTaxi were taken from the video below, which is fascinating:

President Trump Receives A Rolex President...

President Trump

Receives a Rolex President 

+ A Wrapped Tesla CyberTruck

A few weeks ago, I ran a story on Rolex Spotting @ The 2024 Republican Convention, and today we witness yet another potentially inevitable Rolex Presidential historical puzzle piece being unveiled. 

It's been said reality-is-stranger-than-fiction, and President Trump recently appeared on Adin Ross's, Adin Livecast on YouTube, and the interview was filled with MANY YOUUUGE surprises, including Adin gifting President Trump with a new EverRose 40MM Rolex Day-Date which is commonly referred to as a "Rolex President". 

As we see, Adin gifted President Trump with an 18 kt Rolex Day-Date 40, in EverRose Gold, with an Olive Green Dial, featuring raised rose gold Roman numerals. Adin Asked President Trump if he liked Rolex, and Trump responded:

    "That's a beautiful watch. That's a great watch company. They're (Rolex) a good company. They like Jack Nicklaus, and Gary Player and Arnold Palmer—all the golf guys, and all the other guys. This is beautiful. Thank You! Don't they have nice boxes? WoW!!!"

 

—President, Donald J. Trump

President Trump is no stranger to rocking a Rolex President, as he has been wearing a Rolex Day-Date for decades.

Golf's Big 3

President Trump mentioned in his solilaquie to Adin, which I quoted above, golf legends, Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, and Arnold Palmer, who are commonly referred to as Golf's Big Three. 

Trump specially offered his assessment or opinion on Rolex being The International Mark of Success, as he waxed poetic, by apparent way of an unrehearsed, off-hand-remark, that seemed more like a stream of consciousness flow—kind of like a scat singer, or jazz musician who was simply riffing on Rolex: 

"They (Rolex) like Jack Nicklaus, and Gary Player and Arnold Palmer—all the golf guys, and all the other guys." —U.S. President, Donald J. Trump 

Gary Player, Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus have all been Rolex brand ambassadors, which Rolex refers to as Testimonies.

Golf's Big Three are featured below in a vintage Rolex Magazine ad.

The screen capture below appeared on Rolex a few decades ago, and featured The Big Three.

Golf legend, Arnold Palmer was the first major Rolex brand ambassador in modern history.

Speaking of firsts, President Eisenhower was the first U.S. President to publicly rock a Rolex, as we see in the photo below, Eisenhower is wearing his trademark yellow gold Rolex Datejust on a Jubilee bracelet back in the 1950s while serving as the President of the United States. This may be what Trump was referring to when he quipped, offering his off-hand-remark, when he said "all the golf guys, and all the other guys." 

In other words, it's safe to assume Adin caught President Trump off-guard, and truly surprised him with gifting him a Rolex President, something that Trump is intimately familiar with the symbolism and power of. It was fascinating watching Adin gift Trump the Rolex, as Trump responded like a small child getting his first Big Wheel, or BB gun, or G.I. Joe—with a Kung Fu grip. 

I mean, what could you possibly give a man who is a billionaire and seemingly already owns everything money could buy!?!! Yet, when you examine Trumps response, his eyes lit up like a Christmas Tree, when he received the Rolex "President" as a gift. You see, for Trump, it's not the gift per se, but recognition of the symbolism of the surprise gift that emotionally charged him so much. 

It's also interesting to note, and yes I am going deep in my psychological evaluation of The Teflon Don, that Trump with his rudimentary prose, offered the world his first and only verbal evaluation of Rolex being The International Mark of Success. 

I mean wearing a Rolex President, as a political tool watch is one thing, but actually expressing or articulating in words, is quite a different thing, and I found "The Donald's" verbiage to be fascinating. As a matter of fact, I believe this might be the first time a President of the United States has actually offered up their specific opinion of the Rolex brands symbolism and what it means in its broader context!?!!

President Nixon

The Summer of 74

Speaking of The Rolex President, and Arnold Palmer, we see him pictured below in the Oval Office hanging out with President Nixon and Palmer is rocking his yellow gold Rolex Day-Date. It's interesting to note today marks precisely the 50th Anniversary of Nixon's resignation of the U.S. Presidency. 

Ironically, when I was a young child, I was 7 years old, and I was at summer camp in Northern California, at a magnificently beautiful summer camp named "Forest Farms", which was located north of Marin County, in Northern California—and I will never forget how the camp counselors quickly rounded us up late on the afternoon of August 8, 1974, and brought us to the owners residence on the camp grounds, and sat us down to watch President Nixon resign the presidency. I remember watching Nixon's resignation speech as seen below.

I specifically remember all the Forest Farm Camp counselors were all freaking out, saying "this is the first time in American history an American President has resigned". I added the photo of me, pictured below, at Forest Farms with my camp counselor, Tom, which was taken when I was 7 years old. I was too young, obviously to be wearing a Rolex, but I was rocking my favorite, gold Hang-Ten T-Shirt with the two feet logo, with my Levi's jeans, and Jack Purcell, low-top Converse All-Star sneakers.

As a very confused 7-year old, I had no idea or interest really of what was going on with President Nixon's resignation. For all intents an purposes, at the time, I was far more interested in The Easter Bunny, and the tooth fairy, who might leave some money under my pillow if I devoured enough watermelon, cherry, or grape Jolly Rancher bars.

Presidential CyberTruck

ONE MORE THANG!

Adin also presented President Trump with a Tesla CyberTruck with an over-the top-custom vehicle wrap graphic which is seen below with its American Flag wrap design with a highly symbolic image of Trump fist-pumping the crowd with blood on his face, after he overcame the recent alleged assassination attempt on his life in Pennsylvania.

 

I publish TeslaMagazine.org, so I am quite familiar with the CyberTruck and have written about it extensively on RolexMagazine, as well as on TeslaMagazine. I also published a story about Elon Musk rocking his Rolex Datejust in the past, as well as Tesla's lead designer, Franz von Holzhausen, who wears a Black dial Rolex Paul Neman Daytona [Reference 6263]. 

Since we are on the subject of Paul Newman's Daytona #2, it strikes me there is a good chance that Franz von Holzhausen may very well be wearing Paul Newman's actual "Big Red" Rolex Daytona #2, which he may have purchased at auction back in 2017.

So what exactly is the symbolism of this fascinatingly bizarre and exotic CyberTruck gift from Adin Ross to President Trump? I almost can't believe what I am seeing when I look at the wrap design of this CyberTruck. Also, it's worth drawing an analogy between the two gifts Adin Ross gave President Trump, being a Rolex President and a CyberTruck. 

Both gifts are hardcore masculine symbols of over-the-top, alpha-male status symbols. Yes, the Rolex President watch model has been around since the mid 1950s, and the CyberTruck is much newer, but they are both extreme symbols of cutting edge, avante-garde, modern technology designed for masculine men.

One could argue, the Rolex President it no longer modern, but complexity classic today, and that the CyberTruck is not classic, but completely modern, to which I would respond: everything today that is considered classic, was once considered to be modern. 

If you really think about it, the 40MM version of the Rolex Day-Date that Adin Ross gifted President Trump, represents Rolex's brilliantly and flawlessly executed attempt to modernize their timeless and classic 36MM version of the Rolex Day-Date.

You can watch the entire Adin Ross, President Trump interview below.

 

Every great story deserves to have it's own soundtrack, and in this case, Trump be like:

How the CyberTruck design may have been inspired by a Paul Newman "Big Red" Daytona?

CyberTruck Launch 

How the CyberTruck design may have been inspired by 

Paul Newman's "Big Red" Daytona?

Four years after Tesla founder, Elon Musk and lead designer, Franz von Holzhausen originally showed off the Tesla CyberTruck, they finally delivered the first models to customers at a special event held at Tesla's Texas Gigafactory, where they are being exclusively manufactured.

Beginning Friday before last, which was Black Friday, in anticipation of the official product launch which occurred this past Thursday, production Tesla CyberTrucks models began showing up in key Tesla stores around the United States, many of which are located in malls. The image above shows a Tesla CyberTruck being driven through the mall in order to get it to the Tesla Store and notice it went driving by a Rolex authorized dealership.

Over on TeslaMagazine.org I just completed a super-detailed article all about the launch of the Produciton model of the CyberTruck which is pretty fascinating. 

 Franz von Holzhausen 

Tesla CyberTruck Designer

Rocking a Paul Newman "Big Red"

The lead Tesla designer, Franz von Holzhausen not only designed all the existing Tesla models, including the Model S, 3, X, Y, as well as the CyberTruck is perhaps most famous for having thrown a steel ball, the size of a tennis ball at the CyberTruck at the launch event four years ago, and much to his surprise, cracked the special glass that was supposed to be unbeatable.

A while ago, I could not help but notice Franz von Holzhausen was rocking a Paul Newman 'Big Red' Paul Newman Daytona [Reference 6263] as seen in the photo below on his wrist and I wrote a story about his Daytona as well as Elon Musk's Datejust.

The screenshots of Franz rocking his stainless steel Paul Neman Daytona were taken from the fascinating video interview below:

Franz's 'Big Red' Daytona (pictured above) appears to be identical to Paul Newman's Reference 6263, which begs the question of whether he was the person who bought Paul Newman's second Rolex Daytona that came to auction? 

So what if anything does Franz's Daytona have in common with the CyberTruck he designed? It's hard to say exactly, but as a fellow designer I could not help but wonder if Franz's CyberTruck design was inspired or informed by the design of his stainless steel Rolex Daytona?

After all, Paul Newman's 6263 Daytona and the CyberTruck have a great deal in common, beginning with the fact that are moth made primary from stainless steel. When Rolex originally debuted the Daytona back in the early to mid 1960s, it was considered to be an unusually large and sporty watch. 

Interior of CyberTruck features user definable multicolor RGB LED accent light strip which is pictured above in red, which matches Paul Newman's Rolex Daytona [Reference 6263] which is pictured below.

Paul Newman's 6263 Daytona was accented with a black dial, and matching black bezel insert, along with white subdials—just like the CyberTruck has black accents. So basically, they were both big, bold, sporty designs that were initially highly polarizing, while offering an unusually rugged build quality, with unbreakable glass. Also both are considered icons of modern design. The more I think about it, the more I realize how remarkably similarly uncanny the color and material vibe is between Paul Newman's 'Big Red' Daytona and the Franz's CyberTruck!!!!

Paul Newman's Holy Grail Rolex "Big Red" Daytona picture above. This model of Daytona was nicknamed by collectors "BIG RED" as the "DAYTONA" dial designation is bigger and bolder red than on any other Rolex Daytona models. It was gifted to Paul Newman by his wife Joanne Woodward in 1983 as a gift to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary.

The One More Thang 

If you made it this far, chances are you are probably totally enjoying the launch of the CyberTruck, and I saved the best for last. The review of the CyberTruck below by Hagerty is by far and away the single best review, and the second video is where he discusses the making of the review and shares some shockingly profound insight on the CyberTruck.

Design Concept by Jake Ehrlich

If you are a regular reader of Jake's Rolex World you may know that I am also a designer. Tesla recently had contest for people to submit ideas for them to make a $25,000 vehicle which I entered. I just published a detailed story on TeslaMagazine.org that shows my design reference I submitted to Elon Musk.

The Complete Reinvention of the 

Truck for the 21st Century

Tesla invited me to the launch of the CyberTruck event, and unfortunately I was not able to attend, but that does not mean I still can't share a lot of insight into this amazing historical event. I have a dedicated Tesla blog named Jake's Tesla World, but I usually end up publishing my Tesla stories on Jake's Rolex World.

Tesla is an amazing company that has been growing like crazy. Today Tesla is the most valuable American Car company as far as market cap, and is second in market cap only to Toyota and VW. The Tesla Model 3 is the best selling electric car in the world, and the 5th best selling car in the U.S. today. Tesla is also the number one selling brand in Switzerland today!

BLADE RUNNER

The Tesla CyberTruck Launch Event was held in Los Angeles, which is profound as Elon Musk had mentioned months before the truck was unveiled that it looked like something out of the seminal 1982 science fiction movie, Blade Runner which starred Harrison Ford. The supreme irony is that in the opening of Blade Runner we see the image below which states that Blade Runner is taking place in Los Angeles, in November of 2019:

"All those moments will be lost in time. Like tears in rain."

—Blade Runner

Below, we see a screen grab of a car from the 1982 movie, Blade Runner.

Keep in mind I am not talking about or referring to Blade Runner 2049, which starts Ryan Gosling, but Blade Runner 1982.

Below is a photo of Harrison Ford wearing his Rolex Datejust while he was shooting the original Blade Runner back in the early 1980s.

There is a Fine Line Between 

Love & Hate
I have often said "I have to hate something before I can love it", and despite being a little shocked at first glance when Elon Musk debuted the polygonal shaped CyberTruck, it instantly grew on me! Elon Musk debuted his upcoming all-new Tesla Truck recently in Hawthorne, California and the response has been amazingly polarizing!?!! People either seem to love it or hate it. Personally, I love it, and I am writing this article to share my insight with you into why I believe the Tesla Truck is beyond brilliant! Notice there are ZERO logos or badges on the Tesla CyberTruck...That is because the truck is already so iconic, it does not need logos...

Electric cars and trucks are the future. Most major car manufacturer including Mercedes, BMW, VW, and Porsche have announced they plan to convert their entire future fleets of cars to electric, and for great reasons. My single most favorite feature of owning an electric car is that you plug it in when you get home or to work, and when you drive off, you have a fully fueled car. When I had gas powered cars, I remember it was such a pain to have to go to gas stations all the time, and I would always run low on fuel at the most inopertune times.

I watched the Tesla CyberTruck launch event live, and since I am a designer, thoughts began racing through my mind on how to make the CyberTruck look much better. So I sat down at the computer and started playing with the design. In the image I created below, I extended the geometry of the rear window to complete the pyramid look which could house optional solar panels. Then I painted the bottom of the car a matte black (as seen below) and added a wide red pinstripe, which I think looks super badass!!!! Completing the pyramid windowscape also reminds me of the Nike swoosh logo, which looks like it's in motion when standing still...

In the Tesla video below we see a video Tesla released on the Cybertruck.

The image below overlays the Tesla CyberTruck on top of the Ford F150, and as we see they are practically identical dimensionally.

“The vision recurs; the eastern sun has a second rise; history repeats her tale unconsciously, and goes off into a mystic rhyme; ages are prototypes of other ages, and the winding course of time brings us round to the same spot again.” 

—Mystic Rhyme 1845

Below is a photo of the spacious interior of the Telsa CyberTruck.

In the photo above we see the Tesla CyberTruck with its third front seat in the up position so it can seat 6 people, and in the photo below we see it with the seat down, which results in a huge armrest with 3 drink holders...Also, if you look closely at the center rear seat, it features a fold down armrest with a pass-through for extra-long cargo items. in this photo we also see a large white interior lighting strip for the rear seats, which could be used for reading or just lighting the back seat well.

The Motor Trend photo below shows the Tesla CyberTruck drivers seat, with the enormous armrest, which is a third seat folded down. It also features a landscape LED LCD screen which measure 17 inches diagonally, which is 2 inches more than the screen on the Model 3. Also, if you look closely, you will notice the absence of a shifting stalk, as this function is controlled on the single screen.

Below we see the Tesla CyberTruck with a special camping tent extension, and fold out cooking grill...The Tesla Truck is so powerful that users can plug in 110 and even 220 powered devices to it!?!!

Tesla Solar Vault

In the photo below we see the Tesla CyberTruck with the optional rear bed solar panel which can increase range by up to 15 miles per day!!!! Talk about a game-changer!!! If you keep this truck parked outdoors, it could always be charged up to full just from the sun, especially if you drive less than 15 miles per day!!!

Elon Musk tweeted and said: 

"Will be an option to add solar power that generates 15 miles per day, possible more. Would love this to be self powered. Adding fold out solar wings would generate 30-40 miles per day. Average miles per day in U.S. is 30.

The reason it's called 'The Vault' is that it is so strong, an adult male can walk on it without denting it.

Braking Barriers

Many people criticized Tesla's head designer, Franz von Halzhausen after he threw a solid steel ball bearing the size of a baseball at the Tesla Truck and broke its specially developed metal glass. This destructive criticism is beyond absurd!?!! The bottom line is these men on the Tesla Team are pushing the envelope far beyond what anybody else has tried to do, and they deserve credit for that in my opinion. Elon Must published the following tweet seen below that shows Franz throwing the metal ball at the window earlier and it bouncing off. Apparently they tried this dozens of times prior to the event and it didn't break. That is VERY IMPRESSIVE!!!!!

Franz throws steel ball at Cybertruck window right before launch. Guess we have some improvements to make before production haha. pic.twitter.com/eB0o4tlPoz

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) November 23, 2019

Update: Elon Musk tweeted the reason the windows cracked when hit by the 1KG steel ball Franz threw at them was because of micro-fractures that were made when Franz first hit the side of the CyberTruck with the sledgehammer:

King of the Road

Below we see a photo of the Tesla Truck Design team standing in front of the Tesla Truck which offers a superb idea of the scale of the Truck. The CyberTruck measures 231.7 inches long by 79.8 inches wide, and 75 inches high. CyberTruck come standard with six seats and a 6.5-foot rear bed, and rides on 35-inch knobby off-road tires coupled with the Tesla softly sprung air-suspension. I believe this photo was taken in the Tesla design studio, and if you look closely, it appears there is another Tesla CyberTruck poking out on the left side of the photo, but this one seems to be black with some kind of gold skin on the top!?!!

Elon Musk tweeted on Sunday evening about how the CyberTruck body material is formed from 3MM 301 30x cold-rolled steel that he has been developing for his SpaceX Starship Rocket which will become the first rocket to transport humans to Mars:

"We were going to use titanium skins for Cybertruck, but cold-rolled 30X stainless is much stronger...We're creating this alloy at Tesla. Not a problem to create a lot of it, but we'll need to come up with new body manufacturing methods, as it can't be made using standard methods...We're going to be using the same alloy in the Starship rocket...Reason CyberTruck is so planar is that you can't stamp ultra-hard 30X steel, because it breaks the stamping press...Even bending it requires a deep score on the inside of the bend, which is how the prototype was made."


Tesla originally contemplated using carbon fiber to make the CyberTruck, but it cost $130K per ton v. only $2,500 per ton for steel.

EXOSKELETON

Below we see a photo of the Tesla CyberTruck exoskeleton which according to Tesla: 

"Cybertruck is built with an exterior shell made for ultimate durability and passenger protection. Starting with a nearly impenetrable exoskeleton, every component is designed for superior strength and endurance, from Ultra-Hard 30X Cold-Rolled stainless-steel structural skin to Tesla armor glass."

Elon Musk mentioned during the Tesla CyberTruck Keynote: "This is different to how most trucks are designed, with a body and bed on frame essentially." Just to be clear, regular cars and trucks consist of a chassis, and then the body/coach is attached to the chassis frame. The Tesla CyberTruck is basically, unibody construction where the entire body and chassis are a one-piece frame, which results in an infinitely stronger and safer truck.

Elon also discussed how Tesla had tested ballistic impact test using a 9-millimeter full metal jacket bullet that weighed 115 grain from 10 meters. Elon pointed out this literally makes the Tesla truck bulletproof:

"You want a truck that's tough? You want a truck that's really tough—not fake tough?" 

—Elon Musk

There are many fascinating design details on the Tesla CyberTruck. In the photo below we see the 6.5 inch bed which offers a huge bed that offers 100 cubic feet of lockable storage.

In the image below we see the subtrunk located in the bed of the Tesla CyberTruck, which is not only pretty invisible, but lockable. Also, if you look closely, there are L-Track Rails and T-Slots which will allow users to anchor items in the CyberTruck's huge 6.5- foot bed. In other words, this will easily allow you to stop things from moving around in the bed while driving even if they are not tied down.

The photo below shows the Tesla CyberTruck with it's tailgate down, which features a slide out ramp, that makes loading and unloading the vehicle much easier. Also, when doing so the kneeling suspension raises in the front and lowers in the back to accommodate this process. The suspension is capable of raising and lowering four inches in each direction, and can extend the clearance all the way up to 16 inches, which is insane!

In the image below from the Tesla CyberTruck unveiling we see in the image on the far left side what appears to be large Frunk (Front Trunk), as well as a hidden storage compartments in the rear sail pillars (picture on far right), which could probably hold tools or other smaller items.

The videos below offer further insight and opinion on the design of the Tesla CyberTruck.

Back in Black

Just for the heck of it, I did a few more renderings that show my idea of how to make the Tesla CyberTruck look much better as we see in the three images below. I added a rectangular window extension to the back of the car that could consist of solar panels on both sides. I realize doing so would probably only ad a mile a day of range, but that is better than nothing. Also, I painted the bottom black, and added a thick red pinstripe.

It's fascinating to me because I have NEVER EVER wanted to own a truck in my life, but I LOVE the Tesla CyberTruck. In many ways, due to the brilliant design, it's more of an SUV hybrid Truck than a standard old-fashioned truck. Speaking of which, I can't help but wonder what net effect the Tesla CyberTruck in going to have on the Range Rover brand?

In the image below, it is the same as above, but I changed the pinstripe to green.

I created the set of images below that shows my enhancements to the CyberTruck with a red, blue and green pinstripes. This reminds me of a Batmobile! 

I can see how the Tesla CyberTruck will replace the Range Rover as the new urban lifestyle SUV de rigueur for the landed gentry to navigate their way around the new world—from soccer moms to serious off-road enthusiasts...

After all, it is a fact the majority of people who drive pickup trucks don't use them for their intended functionality. According to Edwards:

"75 percent of truck owners use their truck for towing one time a year or less (meaning, never). Nearly 70 percent of truck owners go off-road one time a year or less, and a full 35 percent of truck owners use their truck for hauling—putting something in the bed, its ostensible raison d'être—once a year or less."

It turns out I am not the only person who thought the Tesla CyberTruck would look better in black, as @SuperSaf made an all black Tesla and showed it to @ElonMusk, who said Tesla will offer an all black version as well as seen below. I like the all-black, but like my two-tone version seen above better.

It turns out there are many more people who have the same idea to skin the Tesla CyberTruck including DBrand, who just put up a Tesla Cybertruck Skins and Wraps Customizer page. Their idea of how wrap the Cyber truck is different than mine, and lacks the addition of the rear window that complete the pyramid look, but I put this image together:

Looks Like A...

People keep coming up with things that remind them of the Tesla CyberTruck, so I thought I would share some interesting images. First we see the F117 Nighthawk Stealth Fighter.

Below we see the 1970 Ferrari 512S Modulo Concept car, which also shares the swooping roofline.

Below we see a 1978 Lancia Sibilo from Classic Driver which looks very Blade Runner, and I think it may have been used in the movie Total Recall. 

Funny Images

My friend Christian was making fun of the shape of the Tesla CyberTruck and texted me the the image below of the original Apple Mouse, as well as the images below of the high-jacked Tesla Pickup.
