Just bought a pre-owned K serial GMT ref 16713 originating from USA papers dated 2003. I have a couple of questions for US members regarding the warranty certificate.

1/ The warranty cert does not have the serial number punched into the top right corner. Is that normal?

2/ The warranty cert came housed in a green paper envelope along with the service booklet but there is no leather wallet, calendar card and translation booklet. Again is that usual?

I'm not doubting the authenticity of the watch as I bought it from an AD but every other 5 digit Rolex that I have originated from Europe or Asia they have the punched warranty certificates and the leather holders and calendar cards, etc.

This is correct.

Rolex USA had a printed serial and reference number. They do not provide the leather wallet.

It’s just as Larry said.

Coincidentally, I have a K s/n certificate in front of me showing my neighbor what to look for in his rummage drawer.

He’s trying to sell it and only saved the cash register receipt in the box and put the cert somewhere else. He needed to see what one looked like.

OK thanks guys.

How about the GMT Master booklet and Your Rolex booklet, were they part of the package? The set I bought didn't have them.
