I think "making" a fake warranty card for a gen watch is just silly. There's just something not right about that.

Thats ridiculous OP,
i know plenty people with gens above $100k. You think they are going to carry the warranty card with them? Heck they have watch boxes with a dozen of those gens. If we have to worry about proving our jewelry being gen every time we step in a plane or aboard a ship, we might as well go rep because there's a good chance they might confiscate it.
Sounds crazy to me.
i recently went on two Europe trips: one to UK/Holland and the other to Paris. I took three watches each time. One gen and two reps. I know the more than frown upon it but if you are an honest guy and there's no warrant out for you, I think you're more than ok.

With all the guys who wear rep jeans, belts, shoes, coats and shirts, there could be some real undressed folks at border crossings, unless of course they have their fake warranty cards from Barney's.

Well, you have to take into account the number of watches sold on ebay, the number sold in private sales, the number given as gifts. And since most of those come from GZ...I'd say a couple million a year.

Umm a typewriter would work.
So would a printer if you set it up right.

Weird post.
Never heard if anyone needing forged paperwork for their gen before.
Esp not for the reasons OP is stating.

Bottom line is OP: no help here on warranty cards, at least do your homework and read along....

And please search for "another fake on ebay" as well, you might be surprised

Op- Sounds like someone is trying to rip someone off




Those warranty cards dont mean crap once the initial 2 yrs are over

Go to your local RSC and get it serviced then you will get PROPER papers

If it even is a "gen"
