Is anyone familiar with this?
Hey all,
I have this vintage box that I cannot find any info on. Nor can I find a box that matches mine online. The ref number on the bottom are 68.00.2 but not one box online with that reference looks like mine. Any ideas?

I think I’ve seen something similar with an 18ct midsize Datejust.

box is full fake!
The outer area of the leather box is close looking to a 68.00.08 but this is a completely fake box and outer box. |

Box pictured is fake, but as Haywood rightly points out, there was a similar box for some mid-size gold models.

Fake across board - outer bufkor style box printing is way out - that stitching on box lid is very common fake style btw
