Last weekend, Scottie Scheffler tapped in the final putt to seal his historic Open Championship victory at Royal Portrush. The world saw a champion at the zenith of his powers; but as he emotionally raised the Claret Jug, eagle-eyed fans noticed another piece of hardware getting its moment in the spotlight: the Rolex on his wrist.

For the world’s number one, a Rolex isn’t just a watch; it’s a silent partner, a talisman of victory, and a symbol of his place among golf’s elite. We’re diving deep into the stunning—and valuable—Rolex collection of American golfing legend Scottie Scheffler.

The Ultimate Symbol of Victory: The Submariner “Starbucks”

This is the one you’ve seen the most. The watch that was on his wrist for his 2022 Masters victory and again for his Open Championship triumph is the legendary Rolex Submariner Date, reference 126610LV. It has become his signature “winner’s watch.”

Watch fans have nicknamed this icon the “Starbucks” for its distinctive green and black color scheme. Born as a rugged professional diver’s watch, its features perfectly match Scheffler’s game: tough, reliable, and cool under pressure.

Why it’s a Legend: The green ceramic (Rolex calls it Cerachrom) bezel on a black dial is a modern classic.

Built to Last: Its 41mm case is forged from Oystersteel, an incredibly robust and corrosion-resistant alloy.

The Champion’s Choice: This watch was right there when he slipped on the Green Jacket and when he hoisted the Claret Jug. It’s intrinsically linked to his legacy.

The Masters Champion’s Toast: The GMT-Master II “Root Beer”

While the Submariner is for the final putt, another stunning Rolex marks his exclusive status as a Masters champion: the Rolex GMT-Master II, reference 126711CHNR.

Scheffler wore this incredible piece at official Masters events, including the prestigious Champions Dinner in 2023. It’s a true “insider’s” watch, showcasing a blend of luxury and functionality that commands respect. Known as the “Root Beer” for its warm, two-tone aesthetic, this watch is pure class.

A Stunning Mix: This model is crafted in Everose Rolesor—a combination of Oystersteel and Rolex’s proprietary 18 ct rose gold.

Iconic Bezel: It features a brown and black ceramic bezel, allowing the wearer to track a second time zone (a hallmark of the GMT line).

The Statement Piece: Wearing this watch to the Champions Dinner was a power move, a nod to his place in golf history among fellow legends.

Going All Green: The Discontinued Rolex “Hulk”

While the “Starbucks” is his frequent companion for victories, Scheffler’s collection holds an even more coveted green Submariner: the legendary reference 116610LV, famously known as the “Hulk.”

This watch is a true fan favorite and a modern cult classic. Unlike its successor’s black dial, the “Hulk” goes all-in with a stunning green sunburst dial that perfectly matches its vibrant green Cerachrom bezel. This all-green configuration gives it a bold, unmistakable presence on the wrist.

The Sunburst Dial: The dial is the star of the show, shimmering and shifting from bright emerald to a deep forest green depending on the light.

A Collector’s Trophy: What makes the “Hulk” a true collector’s piece is that Rolex discontinued it in 2020. Its limited production run and unique look have made it one of the most sought-after modern timepieces on the secondary market.

The Enthusiast’s Pick: Owning a “Hulk” signals a deeper appreciation for the Rolex catalog. It shows that Scheffler is not just a brand ambassador, but a genuine watch enthusiast with an eye for iconic, collectible models.

Timeless Elegance: The Classic Rolex Datejust 41

While his collection is packed with legendary sports models, every great collector needs a piece that represents pure, timeless elegance. For Scottie Scheffler, this is his classic Rolex Datejust 41, reference 126334.

This specific reference is considered by many to be the quintessential modern Rolex. It perfectly balances formal style with everyday wearability, showcasing the design DNA that has made the Datejust an icon for decades.

The Iconic Silhouette: The key feature of the reference 126334 is its stunning fluted bezel, which is crafted from precious 18 karat white gold. This bezel catches the light beautifully and is arguably the most recognizable signature of the Rolex brand.

A Classic Dial: Scheffler’s choice of a clean and sophisticated silver dial enhances the watch’s versatility, allowing it to be paired with virtually any attire.

The Perfect Pairing: Often seen on the intricate and supremely comfortable Jubilee bracelet, this watch is the epitome of dress-casual style. It’s the perfect timepiece for award ceremonies, championship dinners, and any occasion that calls for a touch of class, reflecting a deep respect for tradition and horological history.
