My friend told me the RSC here may replace my original watch with a fake
I deposited it for authentication and servicing and he claims they may steal the original and replace it with a fake and claim I deposited the fake.

What do u think of my friend's opinion? I thought he was being ridiculous but considering I live in a poor country, now I'm a bit worried..

Is his own Rolex a fake replacement from the RSC?

Is Bulova a more honest company that don't replace it with a fake?

Rubbish your friend must be living on cloud cuckoo land to even think this of a authorised RSC.

He said the watch is an entire lifetime's salary of a typical employee there and they may not be able to resist it. I'm not making this up.

I dont care if its two lifetimes salary if its the RSC in Makati some of the best Rolex service I have ever had world wide. Same could be said for all of the Asia RSC your friend is not a friend to make you so paranoid about a watch.
