Thanks for the comments. Yes I did expect these little things but now that it is confirmed I will not worry about the warranty and service books. The AD has the holder and the bezel protector and I will get them on Saturday. They did give me two soft pouches to put my Sub and my GMT in. Thought that was a nice gesture. Though no diet cokes, just room temp water bottles, some candy and was offered chocolate, maybe I need to find a new AD, lol!

You can buy the items and a plastic cofin on eBay, save the trouble of going back

What a crappy solution to their cheap as boxes. Not that I care of course but damn they are crap. Even Tudor has nicer boxes.

The value may be affected but not a lot. My best advice would be to look into getting a warranty and factory booklet from the internet. Not going to lie I would be a bit skeptical if I were buying a Rolex from you and your missing a few of the box pieces. |

I bought a Air King last week from AD in UK, didn't get an spare / extra link, should I have done? Got all the other stuff, haven't contacted them yet, I thought I would ask my learned friends here first. Photos to follow, got to get a new phone, hopefully tomorrow depending on how busy I am.

I got 1 coffin box out of the many Rolexes I have bought over the years. AD says Rolex instructed the AD to not give those out. AD says they all go into the bin, as they have no use for them. Stickers? Most of the watches I have bought were in the display case with no stickers unless they missed one on the clasp. I don't care as long as the watch is pristine and they are very careful about that.

You got the watch and it was perfect, right? That's all I would care about.

Actually, when I bought my last Rolex from an AD I asked for a coffin and the bezel protector which I never have gotten before. They really aren't important but kinda cool to have. Your Hulk looks great. Wear and enjoy!!

Most regular people just wear the watch and don't care about all the bits and pieces. But then most regular people aren't flipping their Rolexes.

Congrats on your purchase.
Some unscrupulous ADs will try to withhold some elements in order to reduce the value of your watch if you were to flip it. When I picked up my SD43, the AD refused to give me the bezel protector and the price tag. He also tried to keep the green tag but gave it back a few days later. Offered to remove the stichers (no, thanks) a few times and size the bracelet a few times (with its share of scratches and damage to screws.., I'd rather do it myself) I absolutely abhor this kind of behaviour, it's truly pathetic. It tainted my experience of buying from the AD a little bit, not much though. Overall still very happy. |

I bought my Rolex at an AD as well and mine did not come with the factory service booklet? I was told that it was not necessary and it would not devalue my watch. Not too sure how I feel about it - but not much I can do.
Where did you buy your watch at? Mine was in Miami. |

You don't HAVE to have the booklets, they are an added bonus but cant lie that they would be nice to have.
If you really want one I would see if ebay or amazon or even someone on here has one! Never hurts to ask. |

Yep, received everything with my Daytona Ceramic, it was in it's coffin when I first saw it and I was told it had not been removed prior to my arrival.
I also received a free carrier bag, shops in the UK charge for such accessories, £0.10. I received a receipt, a few Peroni whilst the card was authorised, it didn't take me long enough to decide to buy it to drink the first, my wife had three glasses of fizz. Other than that .... nothing. |

I bought my 116508 Daytona in Cozumel and everything was in Spanish. I just called RSC Dallas and asked if the would send me the manual in English. I gave them the serial number and a few days later and English manual was in my mailbox.
