Keeping in time with oceanography

[Prof. Rolex]

Dear Rolex-Fans,
following please find some scans out of my Rolex-archive from a leaflet released by Rolex 1975 for the Expo in Japan. The leaflet shows the evolution of the Submariner until 1972 and is one of the extremely rare cases, in which Rolex has officially released some information about the model history.
