Yes. I think RSC strips the entire watch to check all the parts

well to my understanding...they do check all the parts.... i overheard...one fella's exp II after verified at the RSC, he was told that the crystal he had was an aftermarket one.... hmnn luckily it doesn't cost much to replace an original crystal...

Hello, me again.

I was surfing some auction sites and was alarmed to see many rolex parts for sale eg bezel, crown, inserts, hands, dail.....

Some mentioned is original while some claim aftermarket!

So, if u buy a pre-owned rolex. How sure there are not aftermarket parts in them? Even if you sent to rolex for auth, do they check every parts? I believe one have to strip every parts to asertain it.

Maybe your rolex has a aftermarket bezel? or aftermarket hands? Or maybe if no one knows than it wouldnt matters ?

What do you thinks guys?

that is one of the reasons why i stay away from pre-owned watches

Yes, but how thorough RSC when auth. ur Rolex. Up to every parts and components? Labour cost will be too high to do that. Not only that, some parts are machine assembled during mass production and not advisable to dismantle.

Maybe any watch tech here can tell us what they do in their servicing.

[fishcake2005]

RSC will give a verbal verification if parts are original.

If i'm not wrong... if your watch contains aftermarket components... RSC will not service your watch ?..

Dunno.. any1 can clarify ?
