Correct box/papers
New guy here....just purchased a 1996 T Series GMT II "Pepsi" T-25. Love everything about this iconic piece. Unfortunately original papers/box were not included. I'm wanting to get as close to period correct on them as possible. Any help with numbers for each of these? And/or pics of what I should be looking for?
TIA |

Why?
Honestly, it seems silly. The paperwork (or warranty card) are what might add to the price and that is not replaceable. Save your money and enjoy the watch. If you are going to spend the extra to buy these items now, you should have just paid extra to buy a watch that had the accessories

Very good point and I might should have, but given price point, condition and situation I pulled the trigger.
Being my first Rolex, however, having as much accessories available would simply make me feel better. I appreciate the reply! Quote:

Congrats on the new watch Daniel. I can't help with the period current stuff but when someone does, these folks have a lot of older boxes and books. http://qualitytyme.net/pages/accesso...cessories.html
Hope this helps.

For boxes / tags etc. try http://www.qualitytyme.net/pages/acc...cessories.html
You could inquire and see if they have anything in stock / arriving which would fit. |

Fair enough, your choice. Just speaking from experience that you are chasing something that you will never accomplish. It will never be a complete set, and that’s OK, just enjoy the watch. By the way great choice for a first.

Closest thing you'll get to papers is a warranty card from service. You can find the rest of the stuff on ebay, just be careful on there.
Proper box is the granite box. |
