Rolex 12

Rolex 12

Als Rolex 12[1] wurde auf den Philippinen eine Gruppe von Ferdinand Marcos engsten Vertrauten in seiner Regierung bezeichnet. Zu dem Namen kam es, da Marcos jedem dieser Vertrauten persönlich eine Rolex übergeben haben soll. Dies wurde zwar immer wieder dementiert, jedoch verwendet man immer wieder diesen Namen, wenn man sich auf die Vertrauten Marcos bezieht.
