Help Authentication - Factory stickers

Hi guys,

I just purchased an unworn new AP Royal Oak 41mm Black Dial. The watch was sold to me as factory stickers and has some yellow semi transparent stickers on the inside of the bracelet as well as blue on the bracelet clasp.

What colours should the stickers be? I trust the person I bought from as have sourced for me in the past however yellow stickers I’ve not seen before?

Thanks for help in advance!

Those are factory stickers. There could also be blue stickers on the outside of the bracelet

I’ve only seen them in blue before so I was a bit worried the yellow may have been something different. Have you seen the yellow before then? When Do they change the colours?

It’s just a sourcing decision, what they can get their hands on that works without leaving residue etc. It’s not something highly unique to the brand.

Looks like mine were blue and green. If you trust your source don’t sweat it. You should be able to identify a fake easily regardless!
