When did Rolex change the box?

I know, I know, they didn't. Must be a turd-box, so the watch is questionable as well...

http://cgi.ebay.com/Rolex-Milgauss-4...item27af067ad3

seller 'maykay28', zero-feedback, crappy pics, RED Rolex box , not too comfortable with that one!

I think they began to match the hour markers to the box with this particular model...

I'd really need to see more pics to really be more comfortable. Way too many ?????? to send that guy some hard earned money. My 2 cents.

I would NEVER be comfortable with a seller who has been a Member since: Jan-30-10 and who has 0 feedback no matter how good the watch looked.

I googled " Rolex Red Box " and saw several for sale. Probably authentic. The watch??? However with 0 sales and feedback, I'd be very cautious. For $1000 I'd fly to Tn, meet at an AD and be a buyer. The card indicates it is a V serial.
