The funny thing about the Monaco is that Steve McQueen got given six or seven of them when the watch wasn't selling, Elordi says (the playing cards now resting on link a side table). "People were like 'Please wear link this in the film you're link doing.' He wore them, and the story goes that they sold out. I don't think I have that kind of appeal but I assume that's the mentality behind ambassadorship – the ability to speak to a generation or an audience."
