If people like the look, and want to pay $15k for a service insert, that's totally fine. And obviously I don't blame dealers for selling desirable watches. But with all that is known about this reference, it's simply not credible to continue to insist that watches were originally produced this way. And IMO unsupported stories about Arab military-issued watches are just that ... stories. I would say that people should produce some evidence or stop telling the stories.

This exactly. If this were a Rolex service part, it’s likely a letter like this would not exist. Has there been an example of any other service part receiving this sort of letter?
As mentioned, the burden falls on proving them original.
