Is it misleading...

I have noticed grey/resellers offering older (Rolex) watches with 'box and hangtag', when it appears (to me) the box is not the 'correct' box for the era of watch. So, I have to wonder where the 'newer' box comes from, are they legitimate extras they have laying around or are they 'aftermarket' Rolex boxes included to make you feel good you got a 'box and hangtag'. Not throwing shade, because the integrity of the watch is the most important thing. If the watch is legit, which I don't doubt that it is, who cares about the box? But stating it 'includes box and hangtag', to me, traditionally means the original owner kept up with the box and hangtag/case candy from the date of purchase from an AD, which infers a provenance. Or should it be stated, non-original box included. Or is this much ado about nothing? Curious to hear opinions, if you have one. Thank you
