I don’t recall ever seeing another box like this. It came with the Sky D I bought from ArizonaPaul for my Dad.

It still might be below “luxury” standards (compared to PP, AP, even panerai and omega) but compared to the dozens of Rolex boxes that have pass d through my hands, I’m very impressed with it.

Anyone else get one of these?

Chadridv · 3 May 2018, 09:25 AM

Oh and of course the watch...

c41006 · 3 May 2018, 09:29 AM

I’ve never seen one of those before

I’m by no means a boxpert, but I’ve never seen this either

Good to know! I wasn’t really concerned or anything. I just think the box is really nice

It was the correct box for original SkyDwellers when they were first released. I received 2 of them one with my RG SkyD and one with my YG SkyD.

Yes of course as only original SkyDwellers were in PM. They moved away from this box a year or so later after original release.

Ahhhh I just looked at dial on my iPhone right now and correct that is strange unless they brought that box back. I looked at watch second and assumed it was original white gold model.

kicksncrowns · 3 May 2018, 09:53 AM

I like that box. Thanks for sharing! Maybe the LV needs to come in the all green box.....

Urosfan · 3 May 2018, 09:56 AM

Never seen that box but I love the watch

Curious if he used old PM box or if they are going back to this box now as it went away a while ago. Maybe ask him?

Congrats on new SkyDweller my friend!

Could have been a mixup at the AD. Boxes are kept separate from the watches and someone could have grabbed the kit meant for a PM Sky-Dweller. Easy mistake to make.

If Rolex drops this box and goes back to the cream interior, that will be disappointing. The green trimmed boxes are (or were) a nice change.

Very nice box!

Very nice box , why would they discontinue it !

ttomczak · 3 May 2018, 11:05 AM

Mine is new and came in the beige interior box like the one above.

Discontinued because it's way easier making a bunch of similar boxes with the same interior except in different sizes. This one would require changes in the manufacturing process of these things and that warrants spending extra money for little value which is why Rolex dumped it.

Nice! Congrats Chad.
