Just purchased a brand new Explorer II from an AD and got it last night. The AD that I purchased it from forgot to put my name on the warantee card.

Is this required for the warantee to be honored by Rolex?

Is there any advantage in not having my name on the card or should I high tail it back and have them fill it out?

I'd get it filled out, better to be safe than sorry

Joey_V · 3 July 2010, 09:22 AM

As long as the AD has their name on the card.... why does it matter if our name isn't on it?

Isn't it technically better to have an "open" card anyway??

JennyFurLynn · 3 July 2010, 09:26 AM

I would expect you would want your name proudly placed on that warranty! And congrats to you on your purchase!

Speed · 3 July 2010, 09:59 AM

You can simply write your name on it with a pen...is the date of purchase filled out? If not, leave it open. Whats the rush?

gregmoeck · 3 July 2010, 10:04 AM

yeah, you can write your name but you might do better leaving it blank if you ever want to sell it.

I'd leave it blank, just in case you ever needed to sell it.

X3. My AD left my name off the card for my LV...I wouldnt worry and if it bothers you, they should be more than willing to put it on there for you.

Whether your name is on their or not the warranty is transferable and follows the watch.

Keep it blank. maybe a higher resell value for someone that would want the warranty in their name?

When I bought my Explorer from an AD, they had me write in my name myself, but in the store, in front of the salesperson.

Jim232118 · 3 July 2010, 01:01 PM

Leave it blank, if you need warranty, fill it out just before you send the watch to Rolex.

What about the date?

How would Rolex know when the watch was purchased?

Carlos98326194 · 3 July 2010, 04:24 PM

Both my Rolex does not have my name on the warranty card but have the date chop. Guess the AD leave it intentionally for customers to be more flexible.

learningtofly · 3 July 2010, 06:14 PM

Am I right in saying the warranty is only honoured if the card has your name on it (in other words, it's not transferable)?

PS Yes, I know it's mind-boggling that I'm asking the question, but as the owner of 4 Rolex's in total and two at present, I actually only just realised that this might be the case

Yes that's the question....is the warranty transferable or not?

They certainly know what date they supplied it to the AD, and in my experience will tell you if you ask.

DOUBLE 0 SE7EN · 4 July 2010, 12:10 AM

When you go to the RSC; do they see the name of the owner of the watch when they check it on the computer? and if there is no name on the card but the warrant still continues; is it valid for the new owner of the watch?
