5.0 out of 5 stars Five Stars
excellent product
3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting but not as useful as I thought it could be
If you have a general interest in watches - particularly Rolex - you may like this book. If you are looking for a technical handbook for authenticating a watch then do not waste your money. The book has lots of pictures covering the majority of Rolex models but I do not think all. There is no mention of vintage Cellini models for example. There is very little else. There is some info re Rolex as a company but nothing you cannot get on the WWW.Nice to have on your coffee table but but once you have looked at it, that is it.

interesting read which should help if I start to collect.
5.0 out of 5 stars Compared to expensive Mondani guides this is excellent value for money
Excellent guide for Rolex models and authentic pictures

I have an earlier edition. Basically with watch books no single book can ever be perfect. They either have lots of text and few photos or cover just a few models. If you want a book which covers thousands of models and minimal text then this is for you. Coupled with other books I found it extremely useful and have looked up many models when in doubt. Recommended.
3.0 out of 5 stars Too many mistakes
As always, it depends what you are looking for from a watch book - this is literally 3,261 small thumbnail photographs (I assume the title is correct - I haven't counted them!!!) of a number (but by no means all) Rolex models from the first pre oysters to more or less the present day. There is virtually no explanatory text or information and as noted in the other reviews far, far too many mistakes, typos and inconsistency in description. Too many photos do not give the date and are not always in chronological order so tracking changes over the years is difficult. Also, many give irrelevant information (eg. ''movement replaced'' etc). Having said that, I personally like the book - but try and have a look before buying as it has a very specific audience.
4.0 out of 5 stars Very good picture reference book
This book is surely the most comprehensive collection of Rolex watch photos ever. It has thousands of pictures on Rolex models both pre oyster and up to date modern models. Do not buy it for a textual reference or history of Rolex as it has very little. There is however text with each picture explaining the model. A must have for the Rolex enthusisast. Good coffee table book. What is really needed is a cheaper, more affordable Rolex reference book with correct facts and interesting points as well as a section from someone who really knows their fakes.
3.0 out of 5 stars So so book, some errors
I bought this after a quick flick through. I should have read it properly! There are lots of errors in the text (I don't know if this is down to translation, as the author is Japanese?) such as "[The Sea-Dweller] is filled with helium gas" ??? I'm by no means a Rolex expert, but I was able to spot a lot of similar errors very quickly. A lot of the watches have comments about their condition, which is quite irrelevant in a book aiming to show small variations of models.On the plus side there are literally thousands of thumbnail photos of watch faces (unfortunately no real detail shots-the best is on the cover), it is a large format, well made book.Could do better, as teacher always used to say. Shame.
Makes a great coffee table book.
Some of the contents are not entirely accurate but it does make an impressive coffee table book. The paper quality and the pictures are great. The book itself is quite heavy and makes it look more expensive than the price suggested. I knew what I was purchasing so I'm not disappointed at all.
Misleading It is not a watch it is a book
It is misleading Photo as I write on search .I need Rolex watch and it is showing but in fact it is a book .
Nice big book
A very nice large book with hundreds of pictures of Rolex watches but not much reading.
Todo genial!
