Green Rolex watch pouches

Hello

I've just seen some of these advertised for sale, how would someone tell if they are genuine Rolex items? Is there a market for fakes and how much do genuine one usually cost?

Thanks

Rolex in the UK tell me these pouches are not available to buy and are not used when a watch is serviced.

They usually send you one in the service box...
They are not for sale... If you ask they might give you a free one... Not for sale..

They gave me one for free at Dallas RSC and not with a service. I just stopped by to ask a question and they gave me a pouch on the way out.

they're on eBay if you're interested.

not sure about the authenticity, but there are a few sellers.

here's one:

Right now on TRF in For Sale you can get the older style pouch with "Rolex" in gold lettering for $50. or the newer with "Rolex" only stamped in the material with a Rolex cloth for $30. Check them both out and make a choice.

Avoid eBay ! TRF is where you can deal without strong worries of counterfeit !

There is a market for fake everything Rolex..

Chances are that most of them you see are not "authentic" since there isn't really a vendor to buy them from..

Well this is the problem, some people selling them appear to have a lot of them and I'm wondering where they got them if I can't get one!

I would like a few but I was thinking about paying what some want for one, for about ten!

if you buy 50 to a 100, your discount will not be too much...
just buy what you need at the best price you can find on the net..
