AlBaron Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Gents, attached is a picture of 2 different Monte #2. One box came from our host, the other - from another reputable source... As you can see - the labels are quite different. Could both of them be real? Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfain Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 So... Logically, if it's a reputable source, why would it be fake? That being said, I've only seen the gold trims version label on petite Monte 2s. Maybe the 2015 boxes use these. Only seen labels of the one on the left (and an older non embossed label on older sticks) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habana Mike Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 New band is starting to show on recent production so yes, both could be real.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soup Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Seen them both. Not sure of the significance Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santela Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Yes they should both be real. Just one with the new band the other with the old. No red flag as far as I can tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upgrayedd Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Hmm this is troubling. My laboratory would be glad to provide you with the results of empirical testing should you ship these two samples to us. Never can be too safe these days... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say that you'd need 3 of each band type to take care of any variables Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
