Oprah Winfrey and Rolex Ladies Datejust ; Rising From The Ashes

MortonsRising from abject poverty to become one of the world’s richest people is the perfect ingredient to the quintessential rags to riches story. There is however, a twist in the tale, because the person concerned here is not only a woman but also of African-American descent. She is none other than Oprah Winfrey, and she has surpassed class, race and creed prejudices like no other to rise like a phoenix against intolerance. Rolex always salutes such people who through their hard work and dedication reach the top without loosing their humbleness one bit.

Born to unmarried parents and a miserably poor family Oprah was voted the Most Popular Girl and also won the Miss Black Tennesse beauty pageant. She went on to become the youngest and the first black female anchor at Nashville’s WLAC-TV. In 1983, Winfrey shifted to Chicago to host a TV show that had been at the bottom rung of TV ratings. Within months of Oprah’s joining, the show escalated to the topmost position beating Donahue. The show began to be called The Oprah Winfrey Show, and Oprah’s wit, humor, her simple curiosity and most importantly her natural empathy with her audience made her a host all people wanted to talk to. As the show rose in popularity Oprah realized the kind of impact she had on fellow Americans and what a crucial role she could play in generating mass avowal. Oprah has been equally generous with the money her show generates; in a particular episode each member of the audience was given a G6 sedan and the episode was the most viewed on TV. Oprah also hosted the Nobel Peace Prize Concert in 2004 and Oprah co-founded an exclusively women’s cable television network aptly termed Oxygen. Oprah is also the owner of Harpo Productions.

Rolex Ladies DatejustOprah is also an excellent actress lending her credits to the Steven Spielberg directed The Color Purple for which she won an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting actress. Winfrey also served as producer for the stage production of the novel. In 1998 Winfrey acted in and also co-produced Beloved, her co-star Thandie Newton said that Oprah practiced a strong technique when it came to her acting and had a sharp mind. In 2008 Harpo Films has signed an elite production pact with HBO.

Oprah has also dabbled in publishing with two magazines, O, The Oprah Magazine and O at Home to her credit. She also owns the Oprah & Friends channel on radio where she does a 30 minute weekly slot with Gayle King.

Rising from the most humble beginnings, Oprah became a millionaire at age 32, and by the time she was 41, Oprah had already replaced Bill Cosby as the only African American on the Forbes 400 list. She has a course called “History 298: Oprah Winfrey, The Tycoon” dedicated to her at the University of Illinois. She is also the world’s only black woman billionaire and also the richest self made woman in America. She has also ranked as the one of the Most Influential People in the world edging over even Elvis Presley and Superman. Oprah is not only talented but her integrity and quiet authority brings to the tabloid talk show format a revolutionary turn. Oprah has always been on confessional mode with her audience endearing herself to them even further.

The Rolex Ladies Datejust is complete with a stainless steel finish, the bracelet is heavier than the earlier edition and the watch has polished center links. This model has customized diamonds added to a custom 1ct diamond bezel. The dial has a pearl finish on the surface and the movement is self-winding automatic.
