    • Good info mr taxico.

      I agree that $75 can't get the whole movement certified genuine.
      But that's pretty much what a layman can get. Paying for some confidence.
      Like audit. Still scam but no one better for some trust.

      For parts if material quality same and finishing/tolerance same.
      No one can tell too. Rolex finishing is no PP.

      Wanted to add PP but bo lui

      • My view is that there is no real need to pay the 75. I only go when buyers want it. Either you rely on your own knowledge or send in for a full 790 service.

        They do not tell you about period correctness other than the obvious (bracelet). For vintage, they may even refuse to authenticate the watch if the serial number cannot be seen clearly....but that is not to say the watch is not real and original.

        • thanks for the clarification. so this would mean that RSC $75 is not a true authentication process. for that, i think i wont pay them for any authentication fee in future.

          also maybe you can shed some light why is it that they ask me to service couple of the 6694 that i brought in? can they say that it is in need of a service by just opening the case and not looking at the movement by not removing the rotor? because they do tell me that this part, that part(exclude the parts based on visual inspection) needs to be replaced because they are worn

            that is MY opinion. i'm entitled to it, whether or not it's true. for example, i -just- met a seller who was shocked that i would be willing to buy it without paying the $75 fee at RSC. he said that he would not be able to buy a rolex without authenticating it first...

            i guess what i should have said was: at RSC or at mcdonald's... you pays yer money and you takes yer chances...

              • I have always bought watches without paying the 75. Just do homework and buy the seller. A trusted seller that is knowledgeable is worth the 5 to 10% premium.
