    Following are results of a Poll I ran in a highly-trafficked Forum focused broadly on the Rolex brand. I Posted this survey on November 23, 2008, and ran it for 7 days. The Thread was viewed over 915 times and garnered 93 Votes as distributed below in response to the following question.

Note: This feedback was obtained before the original (literary) James Bond watch was truly identified in the February 2009 issue of WatchTime magazine.

    12%   "... devestated!"    
    12%   "... moderately disappointed."    
    16%   "... somewhat down: I thought it a neat bit of trivia."    
    46%   "... indifferent."    
    None said:   "... somewhat relieved: I thought it a bit of a distraction."    
    2%   "... elated!"    
    12%   No opinion / refuse to answer    
             
    Numbers may not add up to 100% due to rounding.
