but Omega De Ville Co Axial GMT pulled out at the last minute due to some salad dressing-related contract disputes

Answer: Newman was originally cast as Dr.Alan Grant, but Omega De Ville Co Axial GMT pulled out at the last minute due to some salad dressing-related contract disputes.Just kidding, but Mr.Newman is in fact connected to Jurassic Park, and actually ER, and Twister, and unfortunately, even Congo.Not through any professional relationship, but rather through a timepiece.Michael Crichton, the Producer and Writer of such films and TV shows as listed above, was a huge vintage Rolex collector.He, like so many others, loved the vintage sport models.One of his favorites was the watch you see to the right, a reference 6239 Paul Newman Daytona.

So, while Crichton never had the chance to direct Omega De Ville Co Axial GMT Newman in a film (to the best of our knowledge), he did own a piece of his legacy.We do know that Crichton and Newman met on several occasions, and we're curious if Michael sidled up to Paul and said "Hey, check it out, I'm wearing you".Now we wouldn't tease you with this watch if it wasn't for sale, and it most certainly is.Details of this reference 6239 Paul Newman Daytona owned by Michael Crichton can be found here.Now the question becomes would you rather have Crichton's Daytona or Clapton's 1950s Ref 6034 Rolex chrono? .
