What’s wrong with this warranty card?

Has anyone ever seen anything like this? Particularly talking about the bottom right quadrant that isn’t green, and the bottom left.

My warranty card which I just got 2 weeks ago from AP House does have the same color all throughout the card not like that. Maybe that was scratched off or something like that.

Just a heads up: my AD told me never to post the QR of the warranty card. May want to blur that.

Did a quick check of my collection - none are like that. All solid colour; no black box.

Might want to get it verified by AP directly.

Thank you how can I remove the picture now?

For what it’s worth, I was able to register the watch and it has been authenticated. But I am curious about the card

Just checked my cards and they are the same color throughout.

Also tried the QR code and it goes to the AP url, but to a landing page that states what I'm looking for is not available.

Interesting, I’ve only seen the dark green cards.

Thank you!

For what it’s worth, it looks like others have had the card degrade (pic from a YouTube unboxing. Watch was purchased and stored in a deposit box for a couple
Months). It looks like the culprit might be some sort of adhesive on the inside of the sleeve. In the video, the person had to pull a bit to get the card out.

Does anybody know anything about why the QR code goes to a AP webpage but states page is not available or something along those lines? What is the QR code supposed to bring up? Same thing with my card.

When creating account and manually adding the watch to collection via the warranty no. and the serial seems to work fine though. Just the QR code scan doesn't bring up a valid page.

Yes, that’s the color on the front.
Back side is darker though.

Update! My concerns have been alleviated. I think for whatever reason it was an issue with the photo. I just had the card in hand and it seems fine. Pictures below

Does scanning your QR code bring up anything? For me it goes to ap website but said page not available etc.

I actually thought it was a reflection of a phone, but thought you had it in hand already!

That’s what is happening to everyone is my understanding.

Just did! Yeah, I couldn’t tell it was a reflection in the picture itself
