At least fraudsters now can step up their game and make perfect fake cards.
I appreciate the effort, good info and all, but it's a real pity that you made this post for the same reason we don't discuss fakes.

strongly disagree with your posts. you should go spend some time on those replica forums...they know EVERYTHING that is off on their fakes, and i guarantee this all very well known.

Definitely a post for the archives. I can't resist examining my warranty card now. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks. Great info.

It's nice to know Rolex puts almost as much detail into their cards as they do their watches.

I don’t believe so unfortunately.

However if you have the serial number of a watch your thinking of buying, Im sure your AD would run it through the system to check it’s legit & the AD name on the card matches the one on the Rolex data base.

I was total oblivious to all the points you mentioned, apart from the first one.

What magnification did you use to bring up the wording on the lines and the black letters/numbers?

I believe that scammers, unless maybe, on a large scale, will not have the technology to copy it.

Unfortunately, many buyers will still get duped!

But at least members on here, who treat their purchases seriously, will now know what to look for

Cheers, it’s a 30x Loupe

Good info, thank you very much.

Plus, no, I don't think it will help the fakers, they will have seen genuine cards, it is the tech to make them they lack.

ZOOK · 1 January 2020, 03:35 AM

Great info. Thanks for sharing, Max.

Rado63 · 1 January 2020, 03:38 AM

That's good info but what about the card from an earlier year, or a different market. Maybe we can start a library of these cards and the identifiers through the years.

My cousin has a GMT Batman from 2015 that has the previous style dark green plastic warranty card.

That has the hologram all along the top half on the front of the card when viewed under UV light.

Unfortunately I don’t have a pic of it but hopefully I will see him again sometime in the New Year, I’ll try to update the thread with more pics then

The counterfeiters already know all about this and everything else. It's a matter of whether they want to spend the money to implement it in the fakes.
