Need info on this Rolex Box

Hi, I know nothing about Rolex's apart from that they're expensive! I volunteer in a charity shop and on my pillaging ventures I found an empty rolex box with all the bits inside (minus the watch ofc). It's a nice lil case, wood inside, comes with a red lil tag , papers, certificate and a metal anchor?

We were gonna keep it but some lady said that they sell on eBay for a fair bit, know I know everything these days have a backstory, history and most likely a forum full of people that know much more about it so here I am.

I took some pics to save me typing:

















would this be worth much ?

Is it 'special' rare or whatever?

Gimmie some info, im really interested, it's definately fancy lookin!

Welcome to the forum!
No, what you have is not rare...the papers are useless unless you have the Sea Dweller it belongs to! You may be able to get a couple hundred for the box, booklets and anchor. Now is a bad time to be selling that stuff, 6 months ago you could have proabably gotten $400+ for it. Good luck.

I think that the entire package with the correct instructions booklet (manual)
and the plastic paper holder/wallet it could fetch $400.-
Turn the inner pad upwards (that's where the watch is displayed).
By the way, I think I have one, I will know Monday and it will be a pleasure
to send it to you, free of charge and free shipping.
