A bit more information is needed to help us provide good input.

Did the warranty card have any notations that included a date? That would mean an authorized dealer sold the watch on that date. Even if it is dated 2021, it doesn’t mean the watch was produced in 2021.

An old style card could mean a couple of things: the watch is old stock or the card isn’t genuine.

It is possible that the channel distribution center for Middle East had an abundant supply of the old cards. And because of the Rolex 2020 shutdown’s disruption of the supply chain, those old cards were used for current shipments.
