Rolex Prince: Visiting his son Frank's newly redecorated house, Monty Luckett drops his arm to let his jacket sleeve hide his watch, flustered that Frank, who admires the trappings of wealth, has noticed it: the oblong Rolex Prince was a Christmas present from Rita, the mistress his family knows nothing about. The model is named; no reference or metal is given.

Source text: Monty dropped his arm to make the sleeve of his jacket hide his watch. He felt flustered; he should have known Frank would notice. He admired the trappings of wealth. The oblong Rolex Prince had been a Christmas present from Rita. (Anne Baker, With a Little Luck, scan cataloged as Charnwood large print, 2001, p. 190; Internet Archive scan OCR)
