Not sure if it matters but the version on Amazon night not be the Silk bound edition offered on the Wallpaper site as they say:
'The silk-bound first edition is exclusively available to preorder on the WallpaperSTORE' Though all the details look the same on Amazon so maybe it is! |

Should have nice photos but given the author, I would expect the text to be full of mistakes.
For instance he wrote a profile in the WSJ about a tailor shop whose whole style is based around extremely structured clothing where he described their clothing as the opposite. |

what does the silk-bound volume entail? is it just a different material front and back?

To be honest, these are really good reads. Before I got my sub, my rep gave me 3 hardcover magazines (that I still own) ....I like the brand but to read the vintage and historical stuff and endeavours was really a eye-opener.
When a watch is more just a watch!

Forgive the question, but silk wrap is... silk lining on the hardback, or simply a sheet of silk wrapping the hardback book?

This could be why the catalogues have been very hard to get lately

Thanks for the heads up! As a definitive guide for the Submariner reference I would enjoy reading about the watch and it's history without any erroneous typos and misinformation. While it appears I probably have seen a lot of this on the internet already, it is sometimes hard to determine what is factual. I'll drop a hint to the wife, I have enough socks and ties.

I'm waiting for Rolex to publish a similar book on the history of the GMT-Master.

Hopefully there will be an “out the back door” chapter.
