Rolex Magazine Issue 6

I’m looking to acquire Rolex Magazine Issue 6.

What’s the best path? Is eBay the only option?

Thx

Good luck. I gave up on trying to find that one. The only ones for sale now are well over $100 for what was a free magazine. I have a bunch of the other issues and I was hoping to find #6 for when I eventually get my 124060 sub.

I had found a seller over on another watch forum but he had already sold it and never updated his sales listing.

Rolex Magazine Issue 6

I managed to complete my collection of Rolex magazines including number six and the special portfolio over the course of about six months last year on eBay.

My advice is to set up an alert there and check it often because eventually each issue comes up at a reasonable price but is only up for a short time.

Cheers!

#10 was released as well, should start showing up at ADs at some point this summer. (pic from a fellow member)

The Air-King one looks really cool! For some reason I've not really collected these, but I do get a catalog every year. I think I have the last 8 years.

Some AD’s still have copies. I just got #6 for free when I bought my DJ41 recently at an AD. Might be a longshot, but you can always inquire at a few AD’s.

That's a great idea. My AD didn't even have issue #9 when I was there in November and they said they never even received it. I'll have to ask about 9 and 10 next time I'm in.
