Rolex Talking Points 1985



I stumbled across this 1985 Talking Points brochure. Rolex Talking Points were printed periodically for dealers to use to become familiar with the sales points of Rolex watches. The Talking Points brochures are an expanded version of the Rolex Dealer Cards that provides detailed technical information about Rolex. Although this particular Talking Points brochure was printed in 1985, much of the details revealed are still relevant today. This particular Talking Points lists the OysterQuartz, nipple dialed Submariners, and the 16760 GMT, all watches that are now discontinued and very collectible.


I have the booklet scanned in various low and high res images and two .pdf files. Go ahead and take a gander at http://www.minus4plus6.com/talkingpoints1985.htm


Best,


Sheldon

They are very interesting booklets, with the new models you get also a poster with all the rolex models on there. Here 2 German versions 1992 & 2004.
