Rolex price list........... from 1942

I found this gem this morning, promo material sent to Canadian Rolex dealers in 1942. There have been some recent price adjustments.

Kind of defines the current credit crunch = margin of profit? I'm not implying that a rolex costs 100$. Inflation aside, don't you think the current market's margin are HUGE! I mean come one, a cup of coffee for 5$!
