Is this a fake card?

Asked a potential internet buyer for a picture of his warranty card. Never seen black text. What do you think?

i replied to your other post, you can't tell based on that as scans of cards which can create an over contrasted picture... If you're worried and this is the best they will provide walk away... that is a new format warranty card.

The crown on left side should look glittering. Need more photos to verify

My Rolex was purchased from an AD in California in May 2021. The words “MODEL,” “SERIAL,” and “DATE OF PURCHASE” are in gold, as are the words on the card in the above photo. On my card, the numbers of both the model and serial number are also in gold, unlike the above photo. The crown on the left side of my card does not look “glittering” in photos.

The issue is this is a scan. You can’t tell if its glittery or not.

To add : my 2022 card has its model number in gold. Not black. Unsure of 2020 cards though

I’ve just checked my cards actually all the way back to Jan 2021… none of them have that colour for the model number… walk away.

Does it have any 'ROLEX' text that repeats over and over, and shows up under an ultraviolet light?
Other Rolex cards have that; at least mine do.
