just curious,do u guys after svc with them goes back to RSC to make sure no original parts removed? sorry for asking this because i have no experience in this area. always hear horror stories from relatives that after svc,the original parts gone
The lubricating oils in the movement, may dry up, the gaskets might harden over time...it is advisable to service vintages every 8-10 years...
Vintages (25 years or older) have slower Beat Per Minute movements, and should not require the 5 year service requirement. But it still depends on usage.
Rolex is considering to change their 5 year service advice to 8 years...look out for it.
Cheers!
I was quoted $380 from him for the servicing with gaskets and glass changed with all the waterproof test and polishing etc etc...
He also told me this servicing can last for 3 years before the next servicing due.
I would suggest to bring to Top Hour instead of that guy...personal thing..dun like people who talk way too much..start to lose trust in someone when someone talks too much bull

Can share how much does Top Hour charge to service a rollie?
Think the owner looks pretty humble and honest.
He told me if i wan to service my explorer II it will cost $350 or less including original parts... But he say my watch still can works nicely for another 2yrs be4 it need any servicing...
There is watch klinik at golden landmark #02-37. was told by them they spent few hundred thousand on the equipment and owner is also former Rolex tech.
they even have some sort of scanner to scan your watch and determine if the watch require service.
RSC wanted to charge $1K+++ to service my day date. this place charges only $280!
How much is the servicing charges for a 6694 in RSC?

Sorry to ask again, if a watch is function nicely, it is necessary to do servicing?
What can we achieved by sending it for servicing? Appearance-wise, performance?? Hope the seniors here don't mind all these newbie's questions.
