100 years of Rolex for iPhone
« on: November 25, 2009, 09:45:14 PM »
here's something cool

a quick reference .. the next time u see any vintage pieces on the internet or store front, you can dial in the model and read about it's history and estimated price.

check it out:

I have checked out the utube demo ;) Very keen but one question, will it push for update if any new model added?

This 100 years maybe not really up to date i guess... maybe up to last year or 2...

you got it already?

i'm enjoying my 100 yrs of rolex i installed last night !

fantastic ! i can search every model.... spec ! recommended pre owned price! photo.... video.... up to 2008 model!
even deepsea is included!

i notice rolex lack of creativeness n not so inventive compare with those day!
i heard the new ceo actually start changing rolex direction now...
those day in basel.... rolex is always quiet, only entertain distributor.... so secret bout their skill and technology...
now with new ceo... this yr all exhibition, rolex actually open their Pandora box... showing their history, the way of them making watches... latest technology they researching....

scott... another reason for you to jailbreak your iphone!
