Does anyone know where I can source the newer Rolex boxes with the ridge tops. I need 4 of them.

Agreed on eBay but LOL people are PROUD of them based on the prices. Be sitting down. LOL
And we are all probably wondering how you lost your four boxes you are replacing? Guessing you own 4 watches? https://www.google.com/search?q=2021...nt=products-cc |

A word of warning - there appears to be the inevitable Chinese infiltration into the Rolex box scene, especially on ebay and etsy. They’re pretty easy to spot though since they have X amount available or they have like 10 ads showing the exact same photo. It’s probably better to buy a used one with some scuffs etc, since it’s probably genuine, since the counterfeiters don’t sell used fakes

No eBay authenticity guarantee on those boxes...

To seemingly have a better chance at selling my collection. Folk seem fixated as to whether you have boxes or not... which I should have realised when buying.

I'm having a hard time believing that anyone would buy not one, not two, not three, but four Rolex without a box. Very suspicious.

I'd be more worried about having the authentic papers with the watches to make sure they are legit .....

I'd kinda assumed that no box usually means no papers too

Although, to me, RSC service papers and box are almost just as good.

If you are trying to get boxes for your watches, assuming you still have your paperwork, the white label tags will have the box size specified like S for small or M for medium, etc. |

Sell without boxes. An honest add saying they were tossed years ago would go further.
"EDIT: NVRMND just saw you bought them without. |

I've bought more than that without a box over the years.

A Rolex without box and papers does not exist.

Lots of fake boxes out there. You will pay alot for the genuine ones that are for sale. If you have the papers… great. As a buyer , more important to have papers or some sort of authentication than a box which does not give me any piece of mind with my purchase.

OP, do you have original papers? That's more important than box.

If someone is sourcing boxes that may or may not be the right year and what was given with the watch...I would question their watches. Many times "the package" is put together to take attention away from the timepieces.
Additionally you need to see how much a "box" adds to your sale price because they are hundreds of dollars plus to buy. |

Why you ask. Because of all the smash and grabs throughout California that’s why. When you steal something you don’t get the accessories like boxes and papers so it’s suspicious.
Not saying that’s what your doing so please don’t take it that way, but 7 posts looking for 4 boxes shortly after a major smash and grab spree sure raises eyebrows. Maybe I am more up front than most. |
