Marcel posted a warning a few days ago about blank (fake) Rolex papers being sold. I may have run across some of these while looking around on eBay today.

I wonder if these are some the the mystery papers that have surfaced on eBay? I can't imagine "real" blank papers ever making it out of Geneva.

no links to fakes or blanks

Obviously there is always an incentive for people to cheat when papers add as much as 50% to the cost of a watch. Please be careful out there! I'd hate to see someone pay a premium for a set with "added" papers.

It's an age old proverbial risk when unaware buyers pay premium on a full set - Lunette Verde on Jun 10, 2012, 8:47 PM
