Rolex Ambassador Sir Jackie Stewart On Watches, Cars, Good Taste
I was rather impressed to learn that Sir Jackie Stewart was one of Rolex's original serious brand ambassadors and has been part of the brand family since1968, when he was 29 years old. That means the Scottish motorsports legend has been a part of the Rolex image for over 45 years, and whats more important isn't just what Rolex has done for Jackie, but what Sir Jackie has done for Rolex.Today, the concept of a brand ambassador (no matter the industry) is rather straight forward and typically a business transaction whereby one company wants to leverage the popularity of a particular well-known individual. It wasn't (and to a small degree still isn't) always that way, and people like Jackie Stewart represent an older, more involved approach, where an ambassador is really an integral part of the company in the way a consultant is. Rolex doesn't even refer to their ambassadors by that name, but rather as "Testimonee," as though the term were a proper noun.That means the "Testimonee" people

Need Service Advice
I want to send my Nautilus to Patek (Henri Stern, NY, NY, USA) for routine (I hope!) service. I have never mailed a $25k watch before.I am about an hour away from an AD in San Francisco, CA, USA. My question is, should I drop it off at the AD and let them take care of it, or just send it myself registered mail? No hurry beyond my usual anxiety to have a watch on my wrist rather than in the shop. I'll be fine wearing my Royal Oak until the work is done (insert lucky bastard here!)Any tips/advice? Will AD charge me a premium for using them as a liaison?
