LVc, YM and BLNR

I have purchased 3 new watches from my AD. I have never received a leather pouch that I've seen included with these watches. Most of the pics are from the trusted sellers on here.

I think its a warrenty card, instruction manual holder. Mine are cardboard!!

Does rolex provide these with new purchases??

Thanks, I've always wondered

If you're referring to the green service pouches, then no. They're not included in a new purchase from an AD.
Some sellers might include it as a perk, but they are typically included when Rolex sends your watch back to you after a service..

I'm not really sure! I haven't ever sent a watch to the service center. Can you include a picture?

I see a couple of GMT's for sale here and in the pics is a leather looking (stitched) pouch the warranty card is stored.

RacerDJ- do have a pic? Thanks very much.

I'll ping my AD if confirmed.

Thanks again for the input

Think he's talking about the binder thingy that holds all the manuals and cards....
I think mine are cardboard. Highly doubt that any are leather, everything in the box is artificial.

US watches come with the cardboard holder, which is correct if you bought from a US AD. The leather wallet card holder is from an imported (into the US) watch.
