What does a new Rolex come with?

[airkingII]

I reckon the Box, papers (what does this entail?)

Is there a certificate of authencity - does it come with your name on it?

Where is the hologram located?

Instruction booklet?

What about a warranty certificate?

Tags?

Care products - polishing rag?

Anything else I am missing? Thanks!

New Rolex watches, like from mid Z-series and onwards would have:

1. Outer cardboard sleeve
2. Outer box (beige cardboard)
3. Inner box (green with plastic wavy lines on the lid)
4. The Rolex watch
5. Suede cloth cover for the watch
6. Hangtag, green with serial number on it
7. COSC tag
8. CCC (Credit Card Certificate), with the serial number, date, model number, AD name and mostly with YOUR name and address on it, too (some AD's give you the choice of NOT having your name put on the CCC)
9. Leather cover for the CCC
10. Booklet, depending on the model, but always "Your Rolex Oyster" booklet. Some countries: Also a holder for the booklet, but not in Denmark for instance
11. Some countries: Rolex polishing cloth (not in Denmark)
12. SD: Also a tool set.

The new Rolex watches do not have any "hologram" anymore on the caseback, but an easy pull-off CLEAR caseback sticker with the model number on it.

Not shown cardboard sleeve and box.

Mike's photo depicts a gold "service" booklet with an image of a balance wheel & spring. Mine came with that as well as the small warranty certification and "translation" booklet. Apparently there are two sizes of the box and sleeve, does anyone have photos of them in comparison? For instance, I have the smaller box for which the outer box's front panel does not fold down.

Good point! For whatever reason my SD came with that box, but my Daytona(or anything else did not). Again I wonder if it's simply the fact boxes and watches come separately and the AD "assembles"

Is the watch supposed to come with a certificate?

Mine didn't but has every thing in the above picture. The AD also gave me an official appraisal and a detailed receipt for adding it to my jewelry policy...

I also didn't get a green hang tag from my AD. Got the red certification one, but not the green one. Am I in the minority?

Thanks,

Adam

If you mean the chronometer certificate no. At one time Rolex did this but not anymore. I'm not sure when the practice stopped, but I want to say during the 80s.

I bought a lady oyster perpetual for my wife last week and I did not get the green tag either
