Hello everyone,

I went to NYC the other day, actually I go often since I'm close by.

I went to six different Rolex Dealers. No one had The Rolex Magazine Issue #5.

Two of the dealers didn't know what I was talking about. One stated that they are given as gifts after a watch sale. Even though I was wearing my President.

Has anyone found the new issue yet? Can I call Rolex and request one?

I need the new Issue 5 and Issue 3.

Thanks for your help.

Fred

Having a tough time securing issue #5 as well.

japenney · 19 February 2016, 12:42 AM

Ebay is the best spot i think. My AD gave me all 5 and says that #6 is coming out within the next month or two

They're mainly marketing dreck...photos / interviews with "ambassadors" and what not but sure, give Rolex a call. Or try dialing up more ADs. I'm sure someone has a pile of them.

someone on ebay had all five... i think it ended yesterday.

I was at my AD the other day and he told me the Rolex rep told him that the YM #5 issue is on it's way to the U.S.

EddyG · 19 February 2016, 10:14 AM

I have 1,3,4,5 (trouble finding #2)

Try a Rolex Service Centre for the newest one

I think #6 will come out summer/autumn time

Funny, issue #5 is plentiful here in Canada.

I have #5, I got it with my Rolex in Hong Kong.
Any idea if there's an issue with DSSD or DSSD D-blue already ?

Thanks!

Racerdj · 19 February 2016, 11:01 PM

Still looking for 5 as well, hopefully some dealers in florida have it.

ref1655 · 13 March 2016, 06:38 AM

considering the price of modern-day Rolexes, the company should simply send owners a copy of this magazine...at least for the duration of their warranty period.

last time I checked, Rolex was a non-profit corporation as spelled out by the Wilsdorf Foundation following the passing of his wife.

mailing new Rolex owners something as basic as a periodic magazine would be an easy tax write-off & promote additional sales...plus folks wouldn't have to go scrounging around for them. being old school...didn't even know that a Rolex magazine existed although it would probably make for some interesting reading.

Jack T · 13 March 2016, 06:55 AM

Picked one up at Martin Jewelers in Cranford. Lots of coverage of the Yachtmasters, nautical themes, and where to buy in Italy. First issue I've read, not bad.

Globule · 13 March 2016, 07:12 AM

My local AD emailed me when #5 was available to pick up.

FremStar · 13 March 2016, 11:07 AM

I'll be back in Europe this week for Basel, there is an abundance of issue 5 there, if anyone needs it let me know and I'll bring them back home and ship to you...
