Rolex Exploration Magazine
Went to my AD today looking for the second edition Rolex Magazine featuring the DateJust. They didn't have them yet but assured me they would send one via post as soon as they came in.
The watch department manager/ buyer, who is a really great guy, did give me this though. Seems like a really cool Rolex Magazine, same book like quality of the 1st edition Daytona Magazine! I haven't had time to read it yet but I thought I'd share it here with my TRF family as I haven't seen any posts about it yet. The magazine appears to focus on Rolex (duh!!) and their participation in various exploration projects. Absolutely stunning photographs! Seems to mainly focus on diving watches and exploration watches but I'll glean more after I actually read it cover to cover! Anyway, since it was new, at least to me, I figured I'd pass the info along in case any of you were interested in getting a copy ! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I got my copy of this circa 2011 when I got my Explorer. So this pre-dates the Rolex Magazine editions (I and II). Not sure if any other such publication was available from AD's prior to Rolex Magazine coming out.
