Tips on presenting a gen Rolex as gift without box....

My wife could. Are less for any watch that she has to so more than put on and replace a battery in every couple years. The box is of NO importance at all. Get a decent gen off eBay and roll with that. I'm sure she will be more than pleased with your attention than to the minute details of the box.

I agree with the out of the "box" suggestions. Women love surprises and a little bit of creativity. Forget the official paraphernalia and go down a different route.

- engage her with a little treasure hunt which uncovers the Rolex at the end of the rainbow

- start with flowers and a clue note sent to your home or her office during work hours?

- maybe you can involve your newborn in this surprise too?

All the best with the incoming bundle

Of joy! :)

Strap it around the [censored], drop the pants infront of her and DA DAAAA!

Hahahah just joking mate (your [censored] is the last thing she is wanting to see, belive me), many good ideas here! I liked cc33 and nanuq ones :)

Reminds me of that song about a [censored] in a box. Could wrap up a box stick your [censored] inside with the watch around it. This vid even has instructions

Have the bracelet resized by the ad or service center. i know we can all do this blidfolded but its different when you get the watch personally from rolex. Surprise her when you pick it up together. Maybe Get ppers nd have the watch in her name if you can. The experience is worth more than a box rep or gen. Then go and take her to dinner..

Like that idea a lot. Watch is still in customs in my own country since the 28th ... Getting a little bit of worried :(

I wouldn't worry, it's a genuine Rolex, so no probs with that. If they send you a letter, all you have to do is take the paperwork, copies of email correspondence with the seller, etc. and present that to customs. they may charge you duty, but that's part of the deal with them!!

 

About the box, lots of nice ideas, but a genuine or good rep Rolex box is what I would use here are a few more
