Would you buy/Subscribe to a monthly magazine dedicated to Rolex watches only?
Well the reason I ask is because I was reading a review on the SS daytona about a month ago and in it said that the daytona and especially the SS models have a unexplainable Cult like following and that no other country has such a fascination with the daytona like japan . It is also said that in japan they have a monthly magazine that is dedicated to pictures and articles of the daytona only.
So my question is, would you be interested in such a thing if it existed in you state/country? |

If an existing English-language magazine were to be imported, I'd check out an issue or two. But there's no possibility of a new print magazine debuting and staying viable in the US.

If it came in PDF format and it came downloadable free from the Rolex website to existing owners. Not much chance of that happening though eh? LOL

Rolex doesn't come up with too many new models frequently and don't really have frequent updates to the line up. Its history to each model can be found on the net easily, what is there to read or print about on a monthly basis? It will be 3/4 ads probably LOL but I'm sure some wouldn't mind if its full of different girlies in skimpy outfits modeling the watches in each issue but then it will be about the models not the watch

Jake already does, only for free, and tbh, the quality of his writing and his contributors is greater than the blandness of most paper rags.
