Rolex 118238 Box Sourcing

Good morning all,

long time lurker. First time Poster here. My wedding is coming up in a few months time and i sourced for myself a Daydate 118238 from 2005.

I got a cracking deal on it but unfortunately came with no box or papers which is why it was a great price. Yes it was authenticated so i have no issues whether its a fake or not. What i am trying to find though is a box for the watch but not entirely sure on which box reference it is. For its era i have seen them put into the box 70.00.08 but also seen them in the updated green wave box also. If someone could point me into the right direction that would be appreciated.

I am located in australia and keen to buy

I would suggest looking in sale ads on this forum. Some have the dates the watch sold to help you in case the boxes changed over time, which they often do. Here is one I sold.
