Seems like the new phenomenon are female celebs wearing Daytonas. This is very interest as this could unofficially be seen as the only Unisex Rolex model.

I kind of miss the old thread with all the Celebs wearing Rolex thread except lets limit this thread to:

1) Famous Female
2) Wearing Daytona

I'll start:

Its no accident its called product placement. Rolex is no dummy the rich Lesbian market is wide open.

Lol-x · 24 October 2008, 01:25 PM

Looks good to me

golfball123 · 24 October 2008, 01:29 PM

somehow i did not notice any daytona from the pics...

john_dt · 24 October 2008, 01:42 PM

I don't want to wear dyke watches. I'm not interested in the Daytonas' anymore.

I want to puke.

Good research there! But seriously - why the hell not? If a girl (celeb or not) wants to sport a Daytona and has the cash, go for it. Chances are the only people who will really notice are Rolex owners anyway. I think it looks ok and at least it is a bit more tasteful than a diamond encrusted Breitling. Just as much right as me to wear it anyway. There are much easier ways for them to make a fashion statement. I couldn't care less what Nicky, Tara, Twinky, Inky-winky, or whoever is wearing, as long as they are not actually wearing my own watch! Although that being said it poses an interesting scenario, whereby I have either been mugged by a celeb or I have scored out of my normal league, to which my good wife would certainly have something to say!

argee1977 · 24 October 2008, 06:39 PM

The scary thing is the watch doesn't look oversized or silly, is the daytona now officially a womans watch

swatty · 24 October 2008, 06:55 PM

Great pics , thanks

john_dt · 24 October 2008, 06:28 PM

These hollywood airheads really dig the exclusivity, traditions and history of the Daytona. Yea right, they'd flip it for a lump of turd if that became fashionable as a wrist watch.

Jim, not every guy can be the sensitive type women adore. Revel in it, man, revel in it!

I'm waiting for one of these ladies to have the "balls" to wear a Milligauss.

Watchlady Lisa already does. Where have you been!??

Actually, where has SHE been?

john_dt · 24 October 2008, 07:10 PM

I would actually be quite happy if celebrities stuck to wearing tasteless and ridiculously expensive jewel encrusted watches.

My problem is that they degrade watches with real value and meaning by carelessly wearing them as fashion accessories.

Maybe not, because I don't see too many of them wearing VC, PP etc.

I'm slowly arriving that conclusion that Rolex is a mass produced watch designed for the upwardly mobile and tasteless nouveau riche.

I hasten to add that I'm thrilled to fall into that category.

That is great, well done. Rolex need to put this in their owners manual

"WARNING - real value will be degraded if watch worn as a fashion accessory"

That gave me a good laugh.
News for you buddy - a Rolex is a fashion accessory, like it or not. Now I have no time for these people either, but I dont have much against them either, in fact I have unfortunately never met any such female celebs. One thing for sure though, is that there are far worse people out there also wearing Rolexes.

I'm wondering what the fuss is all about. If a woman wants to wear a Daytona or Sub or any supposedly male model, then so be it. After all I don't see women complaining about men wearing diamond-studded Presidents, Daytonas, GMT-Masters or Subs.

OK lets have a bit of honesty here. Most of the shots of celebs and women are gratuitous highlighting the woman and not the watch.

These are both women, one is gratuitous, the other WIS; spot the difference if you can. QED.

You're right Martin ! I wish they would not take photos of rolexes with women's hands; what kind of perversion will they permit next?

Well, I guess we could have taken the pic with it around my ankle!

Really, I can see some validity with a thread about female celebs wearing Daytonas. It just seems that when such a subject is presented, pictures and comments almost always start to turn lascivous. Why can't we get these darned women to refuse to have their picture taken unless they have all their clothes on?
