Take a look into this warranty card
Look at this post on classifieds, go to last photo and take a look on the warranty card, very interesting, similar to something i have seen before.

That could be their own "authenticity" card as listed on the ad? If so, pretty clever IMHO.
Never done any biz with the seller but when you're selling anything in NY you have to get as creative as you can. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

Yes, for sure it is their own "authenticity" card, but should it look like an Rolex card? I find this toooo clever.

Only thing I would change here is the wording in the description. I would simply say, "watch comes with our in house warranty and card (original rolex card not included)." |

The sellers card has the word "brand" on it to indicate information, which could obviously be followed by and watch company and clearly implies their not trying to make it look like a rolex card. I don't blame the seller for not reinventing the warranty card. I do think it's funny that the reference and watch "detail" are blurred out, and again, the seller probably should have simply said the watch does not come with the original card, but does come with the in house card. |

Agree with above posts. They should clearly state that the warranty card is from the seller, not Rolex.

The card is fine, but the text is misleading. They say warranty card is included which implies it's Rolex's warranty card, they should specifically state it's an independent warranty.

$6300 for a $4,000 watch should give it away.
5 digit YM? A dog. 6300? I'm dead. |

That's very mis-leading and would fool people into thinking that's "papers" or official. A novice buyer would likely be fooled by that.

I personally think the 5 digit full size YM Plat/SS is a stunning watch and certainly not a "dog" I also think $6300 is reasonable...possibly a bit of negotiation to do...no idea where you'd find one for $4k. |

This watch would have paper certificate with that box. The card could be deceiving imo .

No papers? You lose $1,000. Just like they would say if I tried to sell it to them. Hard negotiation and cash is king. Someone wants the $ and not the dog. Don't take it personal. People said my explorer 2 is the Dog of the line up. Maybe it is? Probably not lol. |

And the seller is effectively a retailer so I don't think the price is miles off and may be up for negotiation. For me however, no original papers and I won't touch it, but that's just my preference. Appreciate your point of view |

Don't see the big deal... it's a authenticity card which looks like a Rolex warranty card. It has their logo right on it

Please explain the reasoning behind to state its fake anything,it's just a plastic card with the watches details on and clearly marked with the sellers branding..

It certainly seams intentionally deceptive, and their description is also intentionally vague. It is easy to see how someone could assume they were getting an authentic original card, if that's important to them. It's definitely important to a lot of people. Personally I'd rather have a new card from a factory service within the last 12-24 months than some old expired warranty card.
