Excellent reference book. I went into this book not knowing the first thing about Rolex beyond the Submariner, and now I feel like I have a working knowledge of just about everything I basically need. The book is exhaustive and informative, it has a lot of information not only about Rolex but timekeeping and watches in general. The book is about 12 years out of date, so naturally there are things that have been changed or released since this came out. It's still apparently the best thing out there on the subject. As someone working in the watch/jewelry industry this subject is something I needed to beef up my knowledge on, and this worked perfectly despite being slightly out of date. I hope the 5th edition comes out soon, with color photos!
