Watch Spotting: Ellen DeGeneres Wearing A Vintage Rolex Daytona 6265 While Interviewing President Obama
Everyone knows Ellen DeGeneres – the mononymously famous Ellen (yes, that is a real word, we didn't make it up) is one of the best known and best liked people not just on TV, but in show business in general, and like many of you, we remember her turn as an Academy Awards host with a lot of pleasure. Not that that's setting the bar very high for success, but, you know, still. 1 OF 1 Anyway, she recently interviewed President Barack Obama for a segment of the Ellen DeGeneres Show, and wouldn't you know it, on her wrist was a pretty great watch: a Rolex Daytona, reference 6265, in gold, looking to be from the 1970s. The above shot was taken during a commercial break and both parties look like they're enjoying themselves quite a bit. Ellen is rumored to have a pretty major interest in watches in general and collectible vintage Rolexes in particular. It's an interest she's kept out of the spotlight by and large, but you can only be so under the ra

Thoughts on this AP...
I came across this AP Royal Oak 41mm. I have never seen a AP box with the logo all over it. The watch looks fake to me but your thoughts? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

opinions on Chronomat requested
I'm thinking of adding one in the future, but I was curious what TRF thinks of the model as well as the B01 movement.I prefer watches with an interesting history, and I believe the Chronomat was the first chronograph with an auto winding mechanism. Please correct me if I'm wrong.Rolex is my favorite brand because of the history of their tool watches, but I would like a few non Rolex models in my collection.I already own a SO 42 and a 14060m.

Considering first Panerai... Need some help
I'm considering my first Panerai and need some input from knowledgable owners. I'm very scared of the larger case sizes. I have a smaller frame at 5'7 and a 7 wrist. I've tried the 44mm and it swallows my wrist. I like the 42mm models but they seem to be harder to find. My attire M-F is business suit and want something that blends well with my work attire. Any suggestions on a 40mm or 42mm model? Any pics of Panerai with business suits?Thanks,

Is it me? Basel 2018 one month away but not much hype
Just wondering something I was checking the website today and Basel is one month away. Now, I could be wrong (Usually am ) but there doesn't seem to be much Hype this year. I am thinking last year, we had threads and threads of discussion on predictions, desires, fails etc. But it seems to this WIS that this year is somewhat subdued(?). Does anybody else sense that we are not as excited about this Basel as years past? No Paul... only you... you're the only one.
