I’d watch that. Something tells me she knows her watches.

johnnyjazz · 1 November 2019, 09:20 AM

She has some amazing watches, good on her. I don,t know anything about her or charity etc, the only thing i did not agree with was her brown nosing jussie smollett after his stunt.

Wow! Amazing watch!

...as far as Ellen being a Rolex Ambassador, i’d Prefer to see someone like Kate Upton sporting a Rolex. Now that would be some ambassador

I met Ellen in the past and she is a hell of a watch collector! She would fit right in here.

SeikoBake · 1 November 2019, 01:41 PM

I wonder what she reported to US Customs when she entered the country after that shopping spree ?

Fake news! Amiright?

You could very well be

But I was talking more generally than just this thread - I’ve seen it multiple times before here

ILuvSubs · 1 November 2019, 02:18 PM

Would love to see John Mayer and Ellen go head to head with their respective watch collections.

Its just plain dumb. I really dont give a crap where her money goes. It is HER money.

I would spend it on something sensible like beer and dancing girls, but to each his own...

In deed she does. Sho donated 1 million dollars to rebuild a high school gym after Hurricane Harvey.
Here is a list where she did donate:

Did they tell you to look outside of TRF for a bit?

Glad she can afford what she likes.

Now I'm waiting for the lawsuit for non original parts.

Beautiful watch...and lady.

VegasMilgauss · 1 November 2019, 10:52 PM

Love to be one of her Nephews - imagine the inheritance!

offrdmania · 1 November 2019, 11:54 PM

Please please please Hodinkee, do a talking watches episode with Ellen!

ArtNouveau · 2 November 2019, 12:35 AM

20+ years ago when she was just starting to build her collection she commented on TV how hard it was to get a stainless steel Daytona. The late Irv Marks, owner of the IW Marks Rolex dealer here in Houston, publicly announced he would get her one.
I don't know how long that relationship lasted but it was great publicity for the store.

jlovda · 2 November 2019, 12:38 AM

This article confirms to me that Rolex watches ARE investments and a place for the wealthy to park money.

mountainjogger · 2 November 2019, 01:08 AM

I am glad to see the overwhelming response to Ellen on this watch enthusiast forum is extremely positive. As it should be...

She earned her money by working hard.

She donates a ton to charity.

She has taste.

And she wears her watches well.

What’s not to like?
