Elle McPherson - New Watch

Once a famous "Supermodel" decades ago, and on many occasions depicted with an 18K Rolex Daytona, now wearing a Roman dial Rolex Sky-Dweller.

I guess when you get a bit older the tendency may be for one to graduate to a more complex Sky-Dweller, but she should know that stainless steel is the new precious metal.

I can't blame her for going with the Sky-Dweller, its technically a very sophisticated piece of kit.

She definitely has great taste in watches.. I’m sure she can pick up a SS anytime of the day. She isn’t worried

It may be Eddie but she's not wearing one

I stood next to her in an R M Williams shoe store in Sydney about 20 years ago.
I'm 6'.0'' and felt like a dwarf! She was wearing high heeled boots. Very tall beautiful lady.

I guess since it’s Elle McPherson, the “its too big” crowd has magically handed out a “free pass” from scorn.

Exactly what I was thinking.
Suddenly not too big.

I think she wears it well. It doesn't look out of place on her wrist, to me. It probably wears bigger on my own wrist...

She has good taste
With regard to sizing, some people like flik flaks on their wrists, and some like people like hockey pucks. Whatever floats your boat, just don’t go telling someone else their size preference is wrong.

Discontinued model.

Good choice. Must be heavy. I feel the 326938 is heavy when it's brought out for a longer period of time.
