Hello. I have a GMT II and a Sub that are both 2021 models. I bought them both grey, from two different jewelers - both very reputable, trusted sellers. Today I noticed that the Rolex green wallet that holds the warranty card is slightly different between the two models. I have a pic but can’t figure out how to post it here. Says my image needs to be resized. The card holder for the BLNR has a slot with a little window that exposed the date, and the card holder for the sub has the opening for each side of the card. Is this any reason to be concerned, or does Rolex have different designs of the wallet in the same year for two different models? Thanks for any insight.

Yes there are two different kinds of wallets. The most recent ones do not have the small window.

Depending if the warranty card is the new style or the old style, it may be that you have a mismatched wallet. Not a huge deal imo.

Sounds like one is the old style wallet, so, the jeweler just used the wrong one. The change came about in 2020. It’s likely the jeweler could have just grabbed the previous one for a 2021 watch. Relax sends boxes of watches in coffin cases, which presumably include the white hang tag and warranty card only. All of the rest of the paraphernalia, including wallet, instruction booklet, green plastic chronometer tag, and card wallet, are all added by the AD. Very likely just an oversight, and no big deal.
