A German outlet is dumping the stock. The box is with the chrome old fond emblems for a rock bottom price. The emblems alone are worth more. The book too.

Thank you very much! I ordered one yesterday. I live in Italy. I bought a R18 last year second hand so maybe the former owner kept the box with him or he didn't have one. I really want it. Thanks
 
I get one original box with my First Edition 2021 ( plus $1300 of credit for different Motorrad items ) & a second box ( same items deferent colors ) with my R18 Bagger.
 
It is a nice set. I have been trying to decide on wearing the belt and hat, of leave it in the box. The book is cool. I tried to order a 2nd set from the link I listed earlier but the link is no longer good since they are sold out.

No one has mentioned the white gloves that comes with the set. LOL!!!
 
Thanks I am a life member so thanks for the tip I will submit it
 
I don’t think these are genuine. My understanding is that the welcome box was built exclusively for the first edition model, i.e, 125 bikes vs 125 boxes as an example and everyone that bought the first edition back then, was given the box as a welcome gift. As a rare item, some people sold them to make some money. I bought one purely because the copper batches and the book, the rest is not for me. Looking at the baseball cap, they are all black with the logo and letters in white. The one on the site has red and gold? The emblem on the belt buckle looks different and cheap compared to the one I have in the box. What I am trying to say is that there are people out there selling fake items and even fake websites. I got bitten no so long ago by a fake Costco website, bought a boat rotary polisher with pad and carrier bag that never came. Tried calling the number and it was in Asia and never a response. Contacted Costco and they told me it was a fake site. Looking at the website again I can see the minute differences now.
They also came with a 100 yr edition box. How do I know you ask is I have one of each.

I think the differences are as follows.
First Edition R18 will say so on the box, the roundels are copper plated, the buckle on the belt also has R18 First Edition embedded and the baseball cap is black with the letters in white and also says First Edition.
The 100 yrs anniversary says so in the box, the roundels are chrome plated and the cap has some red and gold stripes.
Is this what you were after?
