Green sticker
Easy question...does Rolex still have a green sticker on the back of the watch when buying new? Or has that vanished from the factory.

Green hologram? No... Now clear sticker with a green tab end to grab and peel, at least on any I've bought in past few years.
Look forward to the incoming |

I've not seen a recent model with a green holgram sticker on the back. Not sure what year they were phased out but it was a while ago. Anything bought recently is either NOS or someones added the sticker. My recollection is they were abandoned mid way through the last decade. That sounds deceptive. |

My GMT nor my Subc had a green sticker... The sub was a 2015, the GMT was a 2018 model.

Green hologram case stickers were phased out in 2005 or 2006 if memory serves. It's been a long time.
Since then, new watches come with clear stickers on the back. |

If the new watch I'm getting had the same kind of sticker...I would be adding another sticker ( with new watch attached of course). Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |
