Sorry if this has been discussed already but could not find the thread. Regarding a Z-series Sub, does this come with the green hologram sticker at the case back or will it be the transparent one? Does this have the paper type rolex certificate or the credit card type? Also, this have the CRB or not? Hope someone would be able to share their knowledge :)

Could go either way. I got a Z series TT Blue Sub last September. I had the green hologram, and a paper warranty, and no CRB. Any combination is possible, but I think (operative word is THINK) there were very few Z series Subs with CRB.

Sorry about the noob question but what is a CRB?

I got a Z series last fall. No logo on the rehaut, clear sticker on the caseback and a plastic warranty card. My wife's z series LDJ came with the logo on the rehaut, the green hologram sticker and the paper warranty. They use whatever parts are fabricated and available at the time of manufacture.

Bought my Z in February. Logo on rehaut, clear sticker, credit card warranty.

My Z-series Sub came with a green hologram sticker, paper warranty and no Chapter Ring branding (CRB).

The early Z-series would have the old-style paperwork, green sticker and no Rolex Brandet Rehaut (RBR).

"RBR" is a better abbreviation than "CRB" since the chapter ring is not the same thing as the rehaut. The chapter ring is the printed track on the dial with fine minute markers and/or PRINTED Roman numerals. The rehaut is the angled, satinised edge running along the dial (the crystal rests on the rehaut). I made the mistake of introducing the "CRB" abbreviation a while back which still seems to live on. Sorry about the mistake. My bad!

Mid to late Z-series would have the CCC (Credit Card Certificate), clear caseback sticker and the (late) Z-series would show the RBR.

M-series (current series) have the RBR (and CCC, of course) and clear caseback sticker. On the very latest M-series, the model reference number has been omitted on the clear caseback sticker.

Oh now I know, that's why my Sub ND have number 14060M in clear caseback sticker, but my LV only clear caseback sticker without the number. Thanks Bo!!! Really nice info, Pal!!!
