Wow! That seems to be a serious premium for that watch, but given how the market has gone crazy why not!

Good for her! Always fun to get a glimpse of her wrist and try to identify what watch she’s wearing. I get just as excited for the acquisitions of a high income WIS as I do for a more moderate income WIS. All good!

I love that she is such a watch aficionado - especially since there are so few women in our “sport.” I don’t really watch her show, but if I happen to come upon it I am always checking out her wrist. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I wouldn't have paid a penny more than $725,000.00.

I also say good for her, a real credit to watch enthusiasts. An unofficial ambassador of Rolex.

If Rolex was smart (which they certainly are) they would capitalize on this, I’m surprised they haven’t already. She has a HUGE Rolex collection, one the firs to wear the 126710 BLRO if I recall.

She’d get my respect if she spent those figures on philanthropy instead of personal effects.

She has always seemed pretty cool. Would love to check out her collection in person.

With a net worth of 450 million.... I am pretty sure she makes some sizable donations to charity... instead of sending more tax dollars to be wasted by the swamp dwellers in congress

Ellen
It was part of a bundle. She really just wanted a new no-date sub.

Ellen is pretty cool. In addition to being a Rolex head, she also flips houses! Granted, its multi-million dollar ones, but still.
