Just seen this ad on ebay...

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ROLEX-06-N...EAAOSw5cNYH4Un

Has to be a joke surely? Current bid £56.00 ?

Even Issue 1 - Daytona doesn't get that much

You can walk into any AD and get this for free...

Am i missing something?

arcadelt · 13 November 2016, 08:56 AM

Not everyone has access to an AD. If you'd like to pick one up for me I'll pay for the postage for you to send it here!

I hope that one of the forum members can help you out with your request.

GolfPunk · 13 November 2016, 09:00 AM

He had 2. Before the bids started I offered £15 including delivery, he agreed and sold me one for £15, I received it yesterday.he emailed last night telling me how lucky I was to get it so cheap.

EddyG · 13 November 2016, 09:05 AM

Looks like il be taking a trip to a few ad's near me then and putting them on ebay haha

stylinleems · 13 November 2016, 09:44 AM

Wow that's a lot! I have extra copies with me here in Canada, maybe I should put them up as well

locutus49 · 13 November 2016, 09:54 AM

Some people are afraid to walk into ADs, they are afraid they will be looked down on. Really.

very true but kind of ironic that the people who can afford to pay this much for a free book are probably some of the most welcome at an AD!

Finally started to read #6 issue.

The first article "A watch like me" by James Cameron is a great read for Submariner model fans. He's been wearing his (all the time) for 26 years filming, scuba diving, diving on the Titanic, black tie, and red carpet events. Truly loves the watch and what it stands for..

A long time one watch guy who can afford anything he wants I suppose.

A testament to how well built they are!

Hairdude1 · 13 November 2016, 10:48 AM

That is crazy!

tifosi · 13 November 2016, 11:10 AM

Finally just got my copy tonight! (While putting my name on the list for a black Daytona)

yippie123 · 13 November 2016, 06:42 PM

OMG, i actually has 3 here... donno it worth any penny. Was at RSC the other day and the lady at the counter just asked me to take whatever i want on the desk. LOL.

Rwatcher · 13 November 2016, 07:09 PM

That is madness, I txt my AD and he posted to me next day.

If people in the UK are struggling I may be able to get another.

travisb · 13 November 2016, 10:23 PM

Got mine the other day. Looking forward to sitting down and reading it today.
I would never pay for an issue though.

kelv_w · 13 November 2016, 10:49 PM

my AD in Birmingham did not have any at all

Yep, I've tried in Brum & Solihull with the same outcome

chriscole943 · 14 November 2016, 05:52 AM

I tried to get my copy from St. James RSC last week and was told they had given out all they had. They suggested I try some AD's but no luck.
I have 2-5 and was looking for no.1 for some time and I finally found and bought from a TRF member here.
Looks like I'm going to struggle to find 6

strafer_kid · 14 November 2016, 07:55 AM

Got the same response in St James last week myself - seems very popular which is no surprise. Then managed to pick one up privately. It is possibly their best yet? Have only been able to glance through it at this point, and they seem to have steered clear of the Seadweller, so maybe a separate version due out on that at some point in the future? Hopefully they will also do the Explorer and GMT?

Limestonedan · 16 November 2016, 06:10 AM

Just picked up mine today. Came in FedEx ground to my AD. Can't wait to enjoy the time reading it!

kelv_w · 16 November 2016, 07:11 AM

Went to all other ADs around Regent & Oxford street and non had any. However I managed to get one last copy yesterday at Selfidges London. I have to say it has very nice pictures and writeups about all things submariner. I can see why it's so popular :)

Kevin of Larchmont · 16 November 2016, 04:28 PM

My AD emailed me this morning that they just got it in and I had a copy in my hands this afternoon.

Allanmodel · 16 November 2016, 05:16 PM

I can walk in to my local RSC and take as many as i want. but, I'm not interested at all lol!

Agreed!

Why all the hoopla over Rolex Marketing dreck?

Now if you're talking about one of those plastic $1.99 ball point pens with a crown logo or a Trucker hat that says Rolex...hoo boy! Gimme, gimme!

henry333 · 16 November 2016, 06:13 PM

Wow... My AD mails it to me. I should sell it. Lol jk
I would think the issues that people can't get will cost not the one that is at the AD right now

tma888 · 16 November 2016, 06:55 PM

With all the hype of the Submariner being above and beyond all of the other Rolex's, I watch in wonder why many wouldnt want this issue...

R G · 21 November 2016, 05:39 AM

I've got the whole set so far (pending issue 6). I wonder how much the whole lot are worth then to some people?!
