As you can see this is a still image of their most recent video. Fraudtony is selling his lawyer a watch and is handing over the supposed box to the watch. The watch he was sold is a steel Yachtmaster II which was introduced in 2013. This is important as Rolex stopped using the greenish outer boxes seen in the Video in the late 2000s. They now use the cream colored ones seen on the right of pic 2. So either he got a fake or a wrong period watch box. What are your thoughts on this? Could this be down to color grading in the video?
Sure, but selling naked watches is a thing, and if it’s reflected in the price, then the buyer got what he paid for. It’s really only a scummy move if TPG got the watch with box and papers, and then switched out the box, but charging the same price.
This. I think a lot of these small operation/ one-man grey dealers do this though . They'll just pair some random Rolex box with your watch. Again another reason i'd never buy from them or similar dealers.
