Nice. I like the design of the new box, but the interior colour of the old box.

The YM comes in the medium sized box and the Milgauss comes in the small box, so the new style box is not bigger than the old one.

Its just a box nothing more, the most important is the watch inside, and in the box world, the Rolex box is way down the list in quality of most other high end watch brands.

I love these boxes, very nicely designed.

Compared to AP and Patek boxes, Rolexes may as well come in 70's styrofoam containers...even the Brietling and Cartier boxes are a bit nicer IMHO.

Would agree but the most important bit is the watch,myself would care not if the Rolex was in styrofoam box, I buy the watch and not the packaging.

Bigger box = less closet space.
