This makes it seem even more dodgy,,,
Pass on this one OP,,,

Thank you again, and also seller claimed that “there is always sticker backside of the card and can be removed (pulled off) easily so no matter what it indicates at that blank area.”
Is that true? I dont get it because I had old card never know that there was a sticker can be easily pulled out from card.

This forum always teached me that buy the seller first and now I understood that I couldn’t buy the seller and also the seller couldn’t buy my trust. Thank you again. I will skip this one and look for a good, clear and trustful deal as you guys always prefer. Have a great week to all.

I know Godechot & Pauliet in Paris for having bought few watches there.
Very well and reliable AD.

They always put a name & a date on all warranty cards !!!!

+ this one has a misspell

= RUN !!!

Really good catch!!! Well done.

Here’s a link to a thread a I created a while ago on tips how to check warranty card authenticity.

https://www.rolexforums.com/showthre...=716674&page=6

You will need a decent loupe or magnifying glass & a UV light

Good luck

Nice. Many thanks.

It would be great if anyone can point out how to check the new warranty card.
