Hello from a New 116610lv owner

Hi all, been lurking in the background for some time now but eventually managed to get my hands on a brand new 116610lv from an AD in London. After calling and visiting many stores to hear all types of bs (2 year waiting list blah blah blah) My brother introduced me to an ex colleague of his who now works at the AD as an assistant manager I believe. After requesting for the hulk he managed to ring me 6 days later with the good news!
Its my first watch and I absolutely love it! Hoping for a warm welcome on this forum

Anyway I got one question, my box came seperate because it didnt arrive yet. It was in a sturdy clear plastic box. Upon receiving the box a few days later I realised I do not have a cloth to clean the watch. I got the little sub date leaflet, card, wallet and warranty. Is the cloth not included in the 2017 model or have they just forgotten about it?

Thanks!

Congrats.

My last several Rolex models haven't included a cloth. I think they stopped the cloths a good few years ago.

That's the correct box. I read the flap is for larger watches

Congratulations and welcome, great choice. No cloth is included in the box in the UK and hasn't been for quite a while. :)

Does not come with cleaning box. You got an Oyster S box which is the correct one for your watch.

No outrage from fellow UK residents that he only had to wait 6 days?

Haven't gotten a cloth for my last 8 Rolex purchases.

Congrats on the fine grab! Enjoy in good health.

Beautiful piece. Didn't get a cleaning cloth with my SubC. ... probably a longshot, but any chance your AD contact could get me onto the Daytona waiting list?? London here also. PM me if he can. Cheers!
