Which system? Does the AD report to a central database when a watch is first sold at retail? I bought a brand new Omega from a Carribean AD in Dec. 2018 that had been in dealer stock since Oct. 2016, and I'm sure the AD did not report the sale anywhere. They dated the warranty card, gave me the watch, box and paperwork and sent me on my way. I better have the dated/stamped warranty card, or at least the itemized receipt, for the five year warranty period starting in Dec. 2018. I think Rolex requires a valid warranty card to enable warranty service, at least that is what they say in their warranty terms. In any case having the original warranty card is a valuable item to have when you sell the watch down the road, along with the box and other accessories.
