Real or Fake Box?
I bought a watch without a box and I'm trying to complete my set with a box. Here's a link to a box I'm bidding on. I believe it's real from doing research, but i'd like to hear other opinions!

The outer box looks good.
I would question the "folding felt" in the inner box. The color/tone of the felt and pillow do not look the same. Also, the stamped crown on the felt does not look right. Would need to see more pictures. |

I think you pillow has been replaced. What does the felt feel like is it thick and soft

Who cares? It's a BOX, fercryinoutloud.
What, is a fake box gonna do a worse job of keeping dust off your watch than a real one? This is not something you need to worry about.
