Is this the correct box?

Looking into buying a box for my 16570 Explorer II. Serial is an M which puts it in the 2007-2008 range and wondering if this box is generally correct for this model. (64.00.01)



I think it may be possible that a newer box was used by that time but I can’t seem to find any resources that would confirm.

This is from my Z serial (approx 2006-2007) 16570, so yours should look like this.

I have an F7xx,xxx 16610LV, delivered directly by Rolex (no AD involved in the process). She came with this first iteration of the « modern box »

Keep in mind that the wave box above is the most faked Rolex box. I would say that only 1 in 10 on eBay are real

I really don't think this is correct for a 2007. It should had been refreshed by that time.

I've been tracking boxes for a while and below is what I have noted with watches from c.2004 to present day. Formatting is poor as copied and pasted from an MSWord docx.

"Wave" boxes with the pale green interior and outer boxes first appeared c.2004. This is what the OP's steel GMT with M-case number should have been supplied in.

Later wave boxes with creamy interior and outer boxes first appeared c.2014.

This is a great post. I've been trying to find the correct box for a 5513 from 1967.
