I agree, there isn't a reason why Rolex can not offer the same.
Enjoy that book, Mark!

That's a nice book! We have something like that in the jewelry store I work at. I've been looking at the different watches, and drooling.

Very generous of them, Mark.
I've heard if you buy the Bentley Breitling from them, you get one FREE Bentley!!

JJ, I can tell you from personal experience, you get no Bentley with the watch, but the Bentley does come with a Breitling clock mounted in the rich wooden dashboard.

Mark your right, the watch is the prize and the gifts are the bonus. The only problem having a book like that, with all the beautiful pictures etc, is the temptation to buy another Breitling. Of course you now must read the book with your hat on. Cheers |

Doc Mark... that is nice! Just don't get too used to it.
I've read that sometimes Breitling purchasers don't get gifts off a second purchase but then again on a third - or vice versa. When you gonna get the JACKET!? That's the big question!
