There are some real gems in here, if you read closely. Beyond the sort of funny, mid-century tone of the entire statement, we get confirmed prices for the two watches (which would be equivalent $2,256 for steel and $5,640 for gold today, accounting for inflation), some insight into the Atomic Energy Commission’s recall, and, all importantly, the total number of GMT-Masters that made their way to the United States with Bakelite bezels. Rolex never confirms production numbers or historical details like this publicly, so to find a period document like this that can give us concrete information is pretty special indeed.
