Swiss papers

Hello everyone,

Does having foreign papers/documents have an effect on the resale value of a preowned watch?

I have the chance to buy a GMT2C at a good price with Swiss papers (watch is presently in London). Living in London will this make it more difficult to sell or affect the price should I decide to flip it in the future? (lets assume I am still in the UK at that point)

Thanks in advance.

Well all Rolex watches now are foreign they are made in Switzerland then shipped to the various countries world wide And all exactly the same except for a few fonts printed on card or paper,but after the warranty period.The papers/card are just that a bit of paper or card dont make a blind bit of difference what the country code is.
