Incredible

Has anybody heard that during WW2 Rolex sales reps where selling Rolex watches to POW British officers in german captivity? Since they where in POW camps, and had no money to pay for the watch, they were allowed to take the watch and pay at war end. I guess the British Officer word was all that Rolex needed.
