Rolex Magazine being discontinued

My AD told me last week that Rolex Magazine is being discontinued. The sub issue is the last one is what he said. With that news I would like to complete my collection, does anyone have extra copies of issue #1 (Daytona) or #3 (SkyDweller)?

I would be surprised if that is the case. They could at least put out one more issue for the GMT Master.

I've got all 6 plus 2 copies of the Rolex Way. But I thought they'd have covered the GMT???

Since my AD is going out of business, I was worried about where I was going to be getting my Rolex magazines.

Now, I don't have to worry about that.

Oh no, I still hope they complete all 10 issues. I don't see any reason discontinuing them as these magazines are quite popular.

Ask you AD to order them with Rolex for you. I did so just two months ago and got them in a week.

How reliable is this information? I stopped into my AD to get a copy of Issue #6 (Submariner) and he is still under the impression that they are doing 10 issues total.

And he is one of the Top 15 AD's in the USA.

I'll be disappointed if they don't do a GMT issue since that was my first Rolex.

I was also hoping Issue #10 would be a compilation of various models they didn't cover in the other issues.

I only need a Daytona one (#1) have an extra Submariner (#6) to swap.

It has been a while since the #6 Sub issue has been out, I would figure they if they are still publishing these there would have been a #7 by now.
