rolex submariner 16610lv
Hi all i am a newbie here
i was just wondering with the rolex submariner 16610lv f serial number is it supposed to come in the new style box or the older style box as the 1 i am about to buy is coming in the older style box i have always bought rolex's with the engraved inner bezels so they have always come in the new box but this 1 is coming up for a good price and i juist wanted to make sure it is coming in the right box |

What is the first letter of the serial number you are buying?

If the condition is excellent, the price is fair.

My late series F came in the new style box. I think in the F serial we started to see a crossover from the old style boxto the new style. I did buy mine new in 2006 too which is probably why it came wth the new box.
