The Rolex Story Book just arrived.

I'm not sure if anyone else posted a review yet, but here are a few low quality shots of the book. It's a coffee table book, copyright 2014, and my first impression is quite positive. For 35 bucks, you get a ton of great pictures and plenty of vintage pics. I've barely cracked it open yet, so here are a few random pics.

I reviewed in on this forum. I was disappointed because it says 2014 yet the fine print in the book says it is a reprint of a 2009 book with a different name. None of the watches are newer than 2008 and most around 2000 or older. Some photos are decent, though and some good histories of the models. We need a NEW book with the newer models.
