Does any other coach wear a 18k Presidential Rolex during games other than Jimbo Fisher?

Those coaches are all millionaires, so I would say many of them do.

Ditka wore a Tridor Day Date.

Plenty of coaches have had Rolex Day Dates was huge in the 70’s and 80’s. Off the top of my head these Coaches wore them:

Bear Bryant
Barry Switzer
Fred Akers
Darrell Royal
Jimmy Johnson
Tom Landry
Johnny Majors
Pat Dye
Vince Dooley
Frank Boyles
Bobby Collins
Ron Meyer
Tommy Tuberville
Frank Beamer

Probably a lot more than that. I think Royal or Bryant were the first and the others took notice and went out and got one as well.

With NIL, you'll be seeing plenty of players wearing them during the press conferences.

His watch probably doesn't have diamonds and it isn't gold faced. FWIW.

A Rolex Presidential is never new money try hard trashy. Classic and iconic, sure, but never trashy.

For whatever reason, college football coaches seem to be less enamored with watches than basketball coaches but I am curious how long it will be before one is seen sporting a Richard Mille.

Just being pedantic that is not a Rolex Presidential, it is a Day Date and appears to be an older 36mm version. Presidential is the model of the bracelet on the watch, not the watch itself. It is a common and somewhat accepted misnomer.

OTTOMH the college coach who has worn the most expensive watches in the past is Butch Jones who at one time had a pair of Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Chronographs.

Kids these days would opt for a Patek Phillipe.
