    I don't think she's actually a Rolex Ambassador, but if she was, it would turn me off the brand in a split second. She is however, wearing a Rolex, in this picture.

    Andy Murray is a Rado ambassador, doesn't influence me one way or another.
    Bulova sponsoring Man Utd makes me never want to own one again...

    Call me an anti-capitalist (I'm definitely not!), but I never understood celebrity endorsements at all, unless they were functional. They show Murray hitting a speed bag (very lightly!) with the watch on, but they don't show him playing tennis in a match with it on. If they did, and said the watch was tough enough for that, maybe it would influence me if I were looking for a watch to play tennis with. Otherwise, who cares what a celebrity thinks is a good watch?

    I wonder why they didn't use a more recent realistic picture.
    Even his grandma is quoted as saying he hasn't been cute looking since Titanic.
