Yes I guess you are correct on that.

Free advertising for Rolex.

Never seen such large boxes around in the wild.

It's good advertisement for the company to have a large company Logo behind the watch

Whats the difference??? We are not celebrities...
How many people here have been given a Rolex from someone other than a family member?
Well, I was given a brand new Submariner... but that was because I stayed in a dead end job for 5 years. I was gone three months after being given the watch.
Unfortunately, Rolex was not there to take pics so I got the regular box also.
