What makes
a Rolex
agent?
There's much more in being a
Rolex authorized agent than
having a watoh to sefl. A Rolex
agent is selected with much
thought and care.
i
He is-selected because he's a
top man in his -trade; his quali
fications and experience are be
yond reproach; he is the sort of
man who can handle the finst
watcbes in the world.
His stock of watches is well re
plenished, his range of spare
parts is comprehensive enough
for any emergency. He is fully
informed about Rolex improve
ments, about their research, of
the discoveries they have made.
And when your Rolex needs
cleaning, or servicing, you can
leave it in bis hands with com
plete confidence. He is equipped
and qualified to give it the best
service of all perfect service.
