How many times you look in your box and papers after buying?
Once in a while (normaly 1 time in 2 month) i tear off my safe to look into the Rolexbox watching the papers, tags, booklets etc.
My question is am i the only one with this habit? Kind regards, Gerardus

Oh, wow, I threw away mine.
Yeah, right! They are still there, I take them out every now and then. They're so nice! And bring back nice memories. |

I just look initially to make sure everything is there, leave it out for a few days to drool, then pack it away. After that, it's just the watch.

Not really into the accessories, but understand that I am only a steward of these fine pieces. Someday, their future owners (my kids, if I decide to have some) might want to have all the goodies. |

Gekke jongens die hollanders ;)
Never happens, just open the box to take out the watch, close it again before the watch is sold. |
