Aziz Ansari is at the top of his game.

Aziz Ansari on the Cover of GQ<\/h2>\n

He appears on the cover of the new GQ Style, cementing his celebrity status and revealing that he knows a thing or two about being well dressed. Ansari tells the magazine the story of the watch that has become a symbol of his well-earned success: a c.1980 18k yellow gold Rolex Day-Date<\/a> \u201cPresident\u201d Ref. 18038 with an onyx dial, which he wears on a black alligator strap in the GQ Style<\/em> cover shoot.<\/p>\n

Aziz Ansari has a Rolex President, and so do his friends.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A Vintage Boutique in LA<\/h2>\n

He bought the watch a vintage boutique in Los Angeles to wear the first time he performed at Madison Square Garden in 2015, essentially the point at which he truly became famous. \u201cI\u2019m attracted to watches that are a little different and have something a little unique about them,\u201d Ansari says. Performing at the Garden for the first time was \u201can incredible moment in my life [and] I wanted something kind of cool to wear there and to commemorate the whole moment.\u201d The striking black dial, he says, \u201cjust jumped out at me.\u201d black dial yellow gold Presidents are indeed rare and elegant. He loved the watch so much that he subsequently bought each of his parents vintage black-dial Day-Dates as well. And that soon became his ultimate expression of affection and gratitude.<\/p>\n

\"Aziz
Aziz Ansari’s success was hard earned, and now he displays his success on his wrist.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Matching\u00a0with\u00a0Aziz Ansari<\/h2>\n

After season one of his hit show Master of None <\/em><\/a>later in 2015 he bought the show\u2019s co-creator Alan Yang a matching onyx dial Day-Date; in season two he got Master of None <\/em>co-star Eric Wareheim one as well; then gave his brother another onyx dial 18038, making a total of five identical vintage black dial Rolex Presidents not including his own. \u201cMy whole family, we all have one now,\u201d Ansari says. \u201cIt\u2019s kind of cool.\u201d We\u2019d say so. Want some of Ansari\u2019s magic? This 18k yellow gold onyx dial Ref. 18038 made c.1980, nearly identical to the star\u2019s own, comes with the original gold President bracelet and is available here at Bob\u2019s Watches. But you\u2019d better move fast before Ansari finds someone else he really likes\u2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
