Introduction to Kenneth Choi
Kenneth Choi is an American actor best known for his work across prestige television and major Hollywood productions. He broke through to wider audiences with his role as Phillip Estes in Fox's legal drama The Resident and has since built a varied résumé that spans network procedurals, streaming originals, and big-screen releases. Film audiences will recognize him from Marvel's Spider-Man: Homecoming, where he played Principal Morita, and from Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. His television credits include recurring roles in Sons of Anarchy and American Crime Story, placing him consistently within high-profile, awards-caliber productions.
The Kenneth Choi watch collection, as captured on screen, leans into the kind of watches that do communicative work without needing explanation. The most notable sighting on our radar comes directly from Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street, where Choi's character Chester Ming wore a solid yellow gold Rolex Submariner — a piece the costuming department deployed deliberately as a shorthand for excess and new money. The specific reference tied to that look is the Rolex Submariner 126618LN, the current-generation all-yellow-gold Submariner introduced during Rolex's 2020 overhaul of the line. The 'LN' suffix identifies it by its black ceramic bezel insert, pairing the warm 18-carat yellow gold case and bracelet with a matte black dial and matching Cerachrom bezel ring.
Whether Choi's off-screen taste runs toward Rolex in his personal life remains largely undocumented — our database currently holds one confirmed sighting. That single entry, however, is a strong one. The yellow gold Submariner sits at the more assertive end of Rolex's sport watch catalog, and its appearance on Chester Ming's wrist was no accident. When a costuming team reaches for a specific reference rather than a generic prop watch, it tells you something about the gravity that particular piece carries.
Kenneth Choi Spotted Wearing 18k Yellow Gold Rolex Submariner Ref. 126618LN
Inserted 30/12/2022
The all-gold Rolex Submariner is one of the most theatrically loaded watches in the brand's catalogue — a piece that reads as unapologetic excess, which makes it a perfect prop for a Jordan Belfort associate. In The Wolf of Wall Street, actor Kenneth Choi wears the yellow gold Rolex Submariner reference 126618LN as Chester Ming, one of Belfort's inner circle. Powered by the in-house Calibre 3235, this 41mm diver is built entirely in 18k yellow gold and retails in the vicinity of $40,000.
