My Rolex came with 2 hang tags... maybe only one in the world.

Jopsons advertise their watches on Chrono24.

Here is a link to the actual watch that they are enquiring about.

Don’t underestimate man’s inherent tendency towards greed and stupidity. The made the same amount of 16710s and look how much fools are spending on those. What’s “punched” paperwork?

We are a business, correct, and have had the Rolex agency for many years until the new legislations came about in 2012 where unfortunately we were unable to re invest to the lever they were asking.

Over the years we have seen many watches pass through our hands. In this time I have NEVER seen a watch with two papers. When sold from new they were exchange only and if you had lost the papers, well it was just tough.

The message was simply to all collectors who’d like to have a watch with something different; (Dial, bezel, hands, etc.) It’s hard enough finding quality watches with all box and papers these days, to find one with 2 authentic Rolex papers is extremely rare and I know why it has two.
Like a misprinted bank note I thought it could add serious value.
If it doesn’t that’s no problem, it is still a quality submariner from the year of the anniversary with full box and papers with something that no one else has. (2 papers)
If you would like to view it please call in store or follow the link as you have added.

Shouldn't this be in the sale section, not the gen. discussion?

Thought I'd seen this before. it was up for auction at Anderson and Garland in Newcastle UK in early December
Here's a picture of the two papers from the auction site.
Rare papers perhaps, but not the watch!
Anniversary year has nothing to do with it.

I’d have said if it was a Flat 4 , then we are talking rare & rather unique to have

Troll is in the eye of the beholder. So, I will take for granted the OP is not one. But this post should really have started in the sale section!!!

Hard to argue that logic.

You are still upset about a thread I started in April that you are commenting on it again today?

And FWIW, hard to compare that thread content to a troll when it garnered 15 pages of civil debate. The only out of line comment came from you. Literally 15 pages and yours was the one.

And here you are, bringing it back up again. Why not just let it go?

Is it because since then there have been upwards of 50 threads with the same theme?

Are you that upset?

Why not just move on? It was April....that is a long time ago.

Interestingly enough, you won't even see this because you publicly announced that you have "ignored" me and you don't see my posts. Instead of simply ignoring me and moving on. Common theme you with you, no? I tend to see you saying that relatively often about various posters. Have you ever wondered why you do that?

A grown man throwing out sucker punches by announcing your distaste and disdain and then announcing that you can't see their reply because they are on your ignore list. Might as well just fight it out if you feel that strongly about it. Or better yet, ignore them altogether.

Well, if by chance you do see this...lets just move on man. Let it go. You appear to have a beautiful life with a wonderful family. No need to feel all this anger and angst. No need to throw sucker punches at someone you clearly don't like, someone you have put on your ignore list, from an Internet forum.

Lets just move on. Have a happy New Years and a safe and prosperous 2018.

Lets see the papers , I am sure that will satisfy all parties , A while ago on VRF they was talking of someone who was manufacturing said papers , some differences between the remanufactured papers and originals , Maybe the amount of holes and variations between EU and US papers

Stick them up im sure it will be resolved

Pics would be nice, but this still should be on the sales forum.

I don't feel this needs to be on the sales forum as I am not asking anyone on this forum to purchase or make offers on the watch, I was simply wanting some opinions on how rare people feel it is to have 2 original factory stamped papers from Rolex and if anyone had ever seen this on any Rolex watch before. If you visit our website in the pre-owned section there are pictures of the paper work hopefully this clears things up and we can get some genuine feedback.

I am unable to post the link due to not having a certain number of posts...

I would say not very rare at all, unless perhaps it accommodates a very rare watch, then just maybe it’d add some value...

Just my thoughts.

Here, I'll show you an uncommon Sub ND that belongs to my seller friend, Sky, a fellow Malaysian WIS. Nothing to scream about but it's appreciated for what's it worth -->US5500
It's a Y serial Sub 14060M 2 liner Flat 4

I told Sky in jest he should offer double polishing cloths and print the Rolex and Crown logos on either side of the polishing cloths, perhaps the watch would be worth even more. He said " Why are you so weird Megan?"
