someone here mentioned that all WT subscribers would get the edition....did you? (I have not so far, just checking....)

LMP · 18 April 2007, 08:59 AM

My AD gave me a copy. I am not a subscriber--yet. The AD received several copies. I searched the watchtime web site for that issue and its articles and didn't find it.

I would be pissed If I dont get one

Dan Pierce · 18 April 2007, 10:23 PM

Recieved mine yesterday, just as I was picking up my wife from the airport with the pepsi bezel she purchased in Germany!

Pics coming soon.
BTW, the Rolex issue is GREAT!

Well, if anyone is will to part with theirs once they are finished or go to Kinko's and make quality copies for a price, let me know. Borrowing is okay too. I will return.
Is it available in stores on the shelves?

is this worth $25 dollars shipping included or not??

I dont want to spend $25 bucks on it for nothing

thank u very much

Puc,
Welcome to the board. Lot's to learn here from many Rolex enthusiasts.
The WatchTime Rolex special edition contains articles from the magazine from 2000 to 2006. This edition was compiled by WatchTime and sponsored by Rolex. It does contain info on some but not all models. Lots of pics & info.
Is it worth it? I'm glad to have it but the answer is up to you.
Hope this helps,
dP

puccahead · 20 April 2007, 05:19 AM

It does concerning the Pres, Daytona, new GMT II, Sea-Dweller, Prince, and general Rolex history. As far as a specific DateJust, don't remember that other than general info.

Just noticed this yesterday.
In WatchTime magazine there's a watchmakers opinion section added to watches reviewed. Many times the master watchmaker is Siegfried Matheis, director of the workshop at Andreas Huber Jewelers in Munich, Germany.
That jeweler sounded very familiar.

Then it hit me.

My wife purchased the GMT II pepsi bezel from Andreas Huber Jewelers.

In fact, she remembers seeing Siegfried Matheis there.

Kinda cool.
