Not what I expected. I thought there would be more information/content on how Rolex built its luxury brand through not only its engineering of a great time piece, but also its communication strategy, sales techniques, retail strategy, use of famous spokespersons..... Instead, I got detailed information on advances of the watch itself, patents and watch workings. Interesting for the real watch enthusiast, but not really a business book.
