Reference books - Rolex GMT

Hi guys, while clicking on a banner here on TRF I was brought to the website of a publisher specialising in reference books about specific models. Their prices are pretty high and I was wondering if any of you out there own any of their books?

I was interested in this one here (not sure if link is allowed):
http://www.collectingwatches.com/en/...mt-master.html

and the one about nautilus and modern Patek Philippe watches.

If anybody can give any opinions or reviews of these works either here or by pm I would appreciate it!
Greetings,
Dimitry

I own The Submariner Story.

HUGE book. The most detailed / crisp photos you can possibly imagine. The book is also very thorough. Close ups of dials and fonts as well as other distinguishing features of watches in excellent condition. Text is in English and Italian.

Would love to get the GMT book. It looks very complete.

Those books are the best IMHO, I have a few ones. Great pics and a lot of information.

Here is some pics when I get my Rolex Submariner Story

Just tell the seller to cut off the price tag.
