Rolex Magazine Issue #3

Got a call from my AD to come and pick up the latest issue.

Seems like they've arrived in Canada.

Next time you're near an AD, just ask for them. Or contact Rolex USA and ask them to send you a copy or all three.

People pay for things that advertise someones product.
If they want me to advertise their product they have to GIVE me the merchandise.

Does anyone actually pay that amount of money for a free magazine?

Sure, or at least they will when there's no more left. There are people who would buy a paper cup if it had the Rolex crown printed on it. Ebay is full of Rolex merchandise that was originally free.

that's just madness!
I had several and gave them all away to friends who also collect them!
Everything is always about money these days

I gave mine first two away. I was not impressed. Too many sports articles, not enough about the movements, and not enough photos of the watches. Just my opinion.

My AD sent me the first two without me asking.

Hopefully they'll do the same with this one?!

Likewise - and also calendars, etc.
I tend to flick through the mags and then pass them on...

there's a separate much smaller "magazine" for that. Almost like a pamphlet or handout that's maybe 8 pages.

Seems like it's much harder to score one in N.Y.! Been to a few AD's here, and they all say the same thing, there not in yet! Took me forever to get the first two!
