Hi guys,

Bought a couple of these green pouches and now think its not genuine.

Could I trouble someone to check the branding of the buttons that are on the inside of the pouch?

Mine says "Sheng Tong" - just seems unusual for a Swiss made watch to have Chinese made pouches haha

thanks in advance.

That's fine, I have pouches direct from RSC with the same Chinese name. I'm not sure those press-studs are made anywhere else these days.

You're welcome. Actually I would be susprised if the whole pouch wasn't made in China.

I believe there are several versions of the green pouches, one of mine says Hato Habi on the button. It´s definitely a genuine one as I get them from my AD directly.

Books, boxes, pouches, bits of plastic etc, are not made by Rolex themselves but made by various manufactures world wide.

Rolex booklets that come with the watch are printed in Switzerland. The ones that I have are at least.

Mine is Sheng Tong from RSC.
Very high quality pouch with great stitching, love the velvety suede.

I have never looked at the button closely.

I will have to do that when I get home!

RSC in Beverly Hills just gave me one today and it doesn't have that "Sheng Tong" on the snap button. Guess it's the newer version.
