Heralding A New Dawn: Rolex Partners Tennis Canada

RolexThere are times when circumstances and underlying factors have been responsible for the disappearance of several events that have been pivotal in ushering world class talent and have heralded the becoming of numerous champions. In spite of their incredible track record over the years the tremendous shift in the market and the economic dynamics has resulted in a dearth of sponsors that drive the tournament. Known around the world for more than its range of incredibly crafted watches, Rolex has always sought to aid those events that show a promise for the future and an unrelenting ambition to survive all odds.

Apart from its remarkable legacy that spans all over the length and breadth of this globe, Rolex has played an instrumental role in resurrecting several competitive events like the Grand-Am racing tournament in United States through its unwavering partnership. What most people don’t realize is that Rolex is not merely a watch brand but is an idea, an ambition and an inspiration that forms the wind that assists several world class events sail over churning waters. In Canada Rolex has always played a fantastically different role in all spheres from supporting cultural events to manufacturing a wholly Canadian Rolex watch till the early 60s. Forming an indelible part of Canadian development and elemental part of the progress in all aspects that involve the pursuit of excellence, Rolex comes to the aid of a number of events all around the lands of Canada.

Tennis Canada the composite authoritative body that organizes all tennis events and ensures that they grow in both size and scope has been continually creating world class tennis competitions for quite a few years. In August this year 25 top ranked women tennis players like the current world champion Serena Williams and Dinara Safina one of the most respected players in the circuit came to Toronto to participate in the tennis events put forward by Tennis Canada. However, the structural changes in the economic setup of the world automatically affected the sponsorship status of the event that earlier had no paucity of big brands supporting the tennis competitions. A lot of companies that had been collaborating with Tennis Canada had to pull out of sponsoring the events due to the retrenchments and the cut in advertising along with changes in the policy of the company. The impending shift in the corporate structure was just a matter a time and companies would have pulled out. Several principal partners did not renew the contract after 4 years or partnering Tennis Canada in the face of the turbulent economic storm.

Tennis CanadaWhen the competition seemed to facing quite a few problems and it looked like the revenue generated from the ticket sales would not have been enough to cover the costs of the event, Rolex known for coming to the rescue forged a partnership with Tennis Canada to bring forward the event and give it a new lease of life in the face of the storm that seems to be consuming most companies around. Rolex was never brought to life as a brand but as a momentum that would push the world to attain the impossible. This is merely the beginning of the partnership and considering the Rolex heritage this collaboration would stay for decades to come.

According to the performances so far the Chip Ganassi Racing team with a total of 248 points is leading the rankings while close on the heels is the GAINSCO/Bob Stallings Racing team with 244 points. In the third place is the SunTrust team with 234 points; however the increasing competition can lead to a turn of events any time. The Montreal 200 for 2009 is heating up with the close competition and the ever increasing levels of performance of the participating drivers, makes this an immensely riveting event. Over the two days that the Rolex Montreal 200 is held the first day features four practice sessions that is followed by a qualifying race that determines the drivers that will be taking part in the final racing challenge. The practice racing sessions are quite important as they not only prepare the racers for the coming event but are imperative in forming the pack that actually participates in the final racing challenge that is held on the second day of the competition.

Circuit De Gilles VilleneuveOn the 28th of August the practice sessions that concluded led to the qualifying event that saw racers left no holes barred to prove their mettle and their skills. Pulling ahead of the other racers by almost a hair’s breadth were racers from the GAINSCO Bob Stallings team who came in at the top finishing the race at 1:32.235 and notching up a top speed of 105.734 miles per hour, while Chip Ganassi Racing Team crossed the finish line at 1:32.235 with a top speed of 105.734 miles per hour in the second place.

With only two more races left in the entire Rolex Racing Championships, the teams are pulling all stops to move ahead of the pack. Though 29th is going to decide the final champion, the qualifying leg of the race is equally crucial in charting the map to the finish.

Avril Lavigne And Cellini Orchid; Rocking Around

Avril Lavigne
It is easy to claim that one is different from the rest but equally tough to justify it. Those who harbor aspirations of being different are available in heaps but the irony is that very few complete this feat and vindicate the claim they made earlier. The examples of those doing this are rare and a couple of those rarities are the Rolex Cellini Orchid and Avril Lavigne. Rolex is a brand that has already commemorated itself in the archives of legendary watch makers. The dream started a hundred years ago and has shaped into a wonderful watch making colossus which took the path unexplored and which walked the territory uncharted. The challenges were numerous and the efforts were countless. All that Rolex had to do was go towards victory which it did and did in style. Throughout this journey, there have been a lot of moments which have made Rolex wearers proud for being part of such an illustrious family whose name itself has become completely synonymous with triumph and success. The Rolex Cellini Orchid is one of those souvenirs that have made every Rolex admirer sit up and applaud. Meant categorically for women, the Cellini Orchid is a defining moment which makes women gasp for air with its breathtaking designing and sustaining sparkle. The magnitude of technology is appealing and the performance is commendable.

The heights scaled by Rolex are something that has also happened in the domain of entertainment. If Rolex has been defiant in some ways, then that defiance has also been apparently visible in artists like Avril Lavigne. Born as Avril Ramona Lavigne on 27th September 1984, Avril has made her niche in singing, songwriting, fashion designing and acting. She started off as an artist with Let Go, her debut album and followed it with successes like Under My Skin and The Best Damn Thing. These albums went onto become number one on the global charts and established her as one of the best pop stars of this generation. Her other work includes singles such as “Complicated”, “Girlfriend”, “I’m With You”, “Sk8er Boi” and “My Happy Ending”. Till 2009, it has been reported that Avril Lavigne has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide and has been rated as one of the highest selling artists of her generation. Avril Lavigne has also earned the moniker of “pop punk princess” through various sources in the media.

If Avril Lavigne is rocking, then the Rolex Cellini Orchid is also nothing short of glamour and attitude. The watch is meant for women and has all the ingredients which women love in artifacts. The precision with which it has been designed is unbelievable and is there for everyone to adore. The watch is home to a gem set case which has diamond markers embedded in it. The Cellini Orchid comes embellished in 18 carat yellow gold and the bezel of the watch is a visual extravagance. The quartz movement of the watch is extremely dependable and justifies its role of being the main operating feature of the watch. The performance is amazing, the looks are dazzling and the very presence of the watch makes the wearer a Rockstar. The Rolex Cellini Orchid is a true dazzler, similar to the ways in which Avril Lavigne dazzles while performing.

Estella Warren And Rolex Datejust; In Synchrony

Estella WarrenThe ravishing beauty Estella has shown her talent in not only modeling and acting but also in the pool. Estella is a synchronized swimmer and like the Rolex brand of watches her movements are fine tuned to every tick of the watch hands.

The Rolex is a premium timepiece and has a universal appeal. The Rolex can adapt so easily to its wearer’s personality that it can be equally rugged, macho, dainty, gorgeous, sporty, serious, elegant, vibrant and striking all at the same time. The Rolex watches have undergone changes over the years but most of the variations have been in terms of the details of the watch. The Rolex name itself has international appeal and the short term fits easily into the dial of the watch.

Born on December 23rd, 1978, the 5.9 ft the tall beauty was raised in Ontario. The youngest of three daughters Warren moved to Toronto when she was 12 years old in order to train with the national synchronized swimming team.

Her captivating looks didn’t go unnoticed. Estella was spotted by an agent from one of the top modeling agencies in Canada and the rest as they say is history. Warren was featured on the covers of Vogue, Sports Illustrated and Vanity Fair magazines. She also modeled for two Chanel No.5 perfume advertisements. In 2000 the stunner was named Maxim Magazine’s Hottest Woman. Estella was also ranked at no.61 in FHM’s 100 Sexiest Women in the World five years after the Maxim poll.

Rolex DatejustEstella has also modeled in campaigns for Nine West, Cartier, Volvo, De Beers, Cacharel to name a few. Warren has also posed for Victoria’s Secret and served as a host for the televised special of the 2000 edition of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.

She has also done special appearances on Ghost Whisperer, Law & Order, That 70’s Show and also featured in the INXS video for Afterglow. Her next film Beauty and the Beast is slated to be released early next year.

The Rolex watch’s chronometer certification is an honor that very few watch brands can claim to own. Synchrony is the second name of Rolex and every Rolex watch is enabled with a special casing called the Rolex Oyster that true to its name keeps the watch protected from dust and moisture. The Rolex Datejust has been redesigned to incorporate smoother lines and the watch is available in both steel or steel and 18ct white gold ranges. This particular Datejust is embedded in diamonds and comes with a white gold finish. The watch also features a date calendar with a Cyclops magnifier to enable time viewing.

Celine Dion And Rolex Lady Datejust; Well Tuned

Celine DionTuning to perfection is a crucial part of any performer’s art, whether it is her voice or the instruments she uses. A well tuned instrument and a well tuned voice are the most important factors that spell success for a show or a performance. And who knows this better than one of the most popular touring artists of all times, Canadian singer Celine Dion? Dion’s fame as one of Canada’s most popular singers and celebrities has come her way because she has never compromised on the quality of her tour performances. Rolex also bears the legendary tradition of being a fine tuned watch whose accurateness in displaying time is the stuff fables are made of. Rolex has an eponymous tradition when it comes to watches because it was one of the earliest of watch brands to realize that watches could become a statement of class and personal choice. Rolex watches were harmonized to accuracy to serve to generations of watch users with the same luxury as had been developed over a century of Rolex becoming a brand name. Rolex watches are well tailored and well tined like Dion whose success story rides on the pitch of her voice and of her instruments.

Celine Dion who is synonymous with the song My Heart Will Go On from the motion picture Titanic has had the quintessential rags to riches story behind her success. Coming from an impoverished background the singer, songwriter, actress and entrepreneur had to struggle to get where she is today, but her soulful voice and her future husband Rene Angelil’s conviction in the talent of the young woman was most instrumental behind Celine’s success.

In the 80’s Celine won for herself special recognition at the 1982 Yamaha World Popular Song Festival and also the 1988 Eurovision Song Contest. She signed with CBS Records Canada and later joined Epic records and with the help of Angelil and mainly due to her own talent Celine won international fame. Unison released in 1990 and with this Anglophone album Celine reached the kind of success internationally that she had never imagined for herself. After a brief hiatus Dion returned to the stage in 2002, and signed a three year deal to perform in a five star theatrical show at Caesar’s Palace, the contract was later extended to five years. Dion has achieved a reputation for delivering technically skilled and powerful vocals. She is also the best selling Canadian artist of all time. Dion has also been presented with a Chopard Diamond Award at the World Music Awards for being the best selling female artist of all times. Celine who has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame is currently busy with her Taking Chances Tour.

Rolex Lady DatejustThe Rolex Lady Datejust is an extremely stylish, sleek and sophisticated watch both in terms of its look and its performance. The Lady Datejust is the redesigned version of the Oyster Lady Perpetual and this version features smoother lines and enhanced dials that lend more personality to the regality of the watch. The certified Rolex chronometer and beauty is available in both steel and steel and white gold combinations. Rolex uses only 18ct white gold for the Lady Datejust. A Cyclops magnifier in the watch allows it to display time in any weather and the date calendar reminds of the day of the week you are looking at the watch. A 26 mm white mother-of-pearl dial is set off with diamonds and beautifies this steel and yellow gold design. The Lady Datejust is self winding and also has a bracelet with a jubilee featuring Crownclasp. This classic watch is waterproof to 100 meters and crystallized in sapphire. Like Celine Dion the Rolex Lady Datejust is especially well tuned to deliver spells of success.
