anyone seen these new service boxes?

maybe they are not so new and it just shows how long it has been since I have sent a watch to rolex!!...lol
I use local rolex trained watchmakers mostly..they are so hungry that the work costs pennies on the dollar compared to the mother ship..

Same I got that last year. It really provides good cushion to shocks which I'm sure occurs several times during shipping.

Where you been Steve, those have been all over ebay for months! LOL But I agree with on using local watchmakers....much cheaper!

Looks good Steve, I've never seen those before Quite an inexpensive but good idea by Rolex to provide a protective package.
