Stuff one can find on the internet is amazing! I was wondering what model Rolex Robert Culp wore on Colombo,.....

He’s wearing a yellow-gold Rolex GMT-Master 1675/8 Root Beer on a jubilee bracelet – likely Culp’s personal timekeeper since he sports the same gem in the two other Columbo episodes in which he plays a baddie.

Just for fun I posed the question to Microsoft Copilot, and it got it right.

I really like this user's Columbo reviews. I've watched all that she's made so far (midway through season 3) and have thoroughly enjoyed them. Very detailed & interesting.
