Rolex Pouches

[Black Bay Dan]

Hi All - with expertise on this Forum, please could I ask if this eBay listing is for a genuine Rolex item or not.

Many thanks.

Dan,
Looks legit to me. I have one myself. The leather pouches do not come w/ the oval inserts for some reason.

Thanks Dan - are the oval inserts just to wrap the bracelet around? The reason I want to buy these pouches is that both my watches are with Rolex at the moment being cleaned and serviced, and I want to make more of an effort to protect them when not being worn (rather than just left on my dresser). Many thanks.

In theory, they should each come back in a service pouch.

You'll have a couple then.

I think in England, you only get the Rolex Pouches if you have it serviced directly with Rolex in London (that is what they told me when I called them). My two watches went via my local dealer, however in 30 years of having my Air King serviced numerous time, (mostly directly with Rolex in London), I have never been given a pouch of any description (usually just a plastic bag). Is this just because I have an Air King and therefore viewed as low rent?

Dan,
Yes, the insert is to protect the caseback from the bracelet during storage. I'm sure you can find something around the house that will do the same. I love the leather pouches.

Well, I have now bought two of these leather pouches for, $25 each. By the time they get to England my watches might be ready
