Finding the correct 'period' Rolex box
I would be extremely grateful if anybody could help me understand which box is the appropriate 'period' box to go with a 1971 Explorer II. I have recently acquired a lovely watch, which I won't always wear, I would like to store it in the right box. There are many for sale on ebay but I want to buy the correct one.
Any help gratefully appreciated.
