Women went bonkers over him, men hated his guts.
But this is the dude that made it ok for men to wear a wristwatch!


On his right wrist he’s wearing a “slave” bracelet given to him by his wife Natacha.
On his left, you can barely see bits of his Cartier wristwatch.
Often ridiculed for his dress, wearing colorful shirts and ties,
he didn’t give a hoot, he wore what he felt like and it was $$$$$ material.

Way to go Rudy! :D

This man has seen life for what it is. You can see it in his eyes. And in his beard. And in his pipe, which you can see is battered and burnt. Like his wrinkly badass face. Is it the rocky coast of Normandy that has made him this way? Or the rocky coast of Galway? Or the rocky coast of Cornwall?

Doesn't matter. All that matters is the weather-beaten pipe-smoking badassery that will never die...the fisherman's version of the most interesting man in the world.
