Celebrity watches...
Now that I have a Rolex, I seem to notice them more when I see someone out or in pictures...especially celebrities. Since I have an Explorer II, I was wondering if anyone knew of celebrities (silver screen, television, sports, or political) that sport the same watch...
P.S. I don't have celebrity envy...I am just curious.

No worries, KC..most of us here are the same!!
What I've noticed in most movies, is that they usually wear either a DD, a DJ or a Sub. You rarely see GMTs or Exps. TAGs are often shown on the silver screen, usually being worn by the "hoods", and in "The 51st State" Samuel L. Jackson was wearing a Breitling. JJ

Oh, and Brad Pitt. He has worn the Ex II in Rolex ads in Japan.

The gorgeous girl is Elle [The Body] McPherson, supermodel, millionairess and true blue Aussie Beach girl, all 185cm of her. I've also seen her wearing a solid gold Daytona as well. The guy driving is Eric [Slowhand] Clapton. In the back is a very well known blues guy and it annoys me that I can't think of his name Anyone else know? Steve |

Angelina Jolie, Tissot Touch in the 2 Tomb Raiders & Mr & Mrs Smith.
I know it's a Tissot, but still Swiss & Angelina. In Mr & Mrs Smith, the watch shot was way too obvious.i'm sure 1/4 of the screen was just the face of her watch.

I know her name. I was just seeing if anybody was paying attention. She is my dream girl.
I have met B.B King. I believes he wears a Gold President. In fact, the first GMT I ever saw was on Dizzie Gillespie's wrist. Eric Clapton, of course, is famous for owning lots of Rolex watches, and now doing ads for Rolex.

At this point, yes. I have been studying the rest of that photo for almost two years now.
