Has anyone took any before and after service pictures of their beloved Rolex?

Thinking of putting my sub in and just wanted to see if it actually "comes back as new"

It will come back looking brand new. No worries..

Yeah, they do a good job. My 30 year old Sub came back looking great and regulated to + 1 second a day. It's not cheap but it's worth it in my opinion.

Just had a full "seven year service" from Rik Dietel at Time Care Inc.

First two pics are before, last two after.

There were a number of "normal" scratches on the case and bracelet which you don't really see in the before pics but he did a nice job on those and it looks great! Also replaced the bezel insert because I had smacked it on a door frame and cracked the lume pearl. He regulated it to a remarkable +.25 sec. per day and turned it around in 4 weeks as promised.

100% recommend his work!

My big block came back absolutely like new. Don't worry!

My 116519 should be back in a couple of days. Full restoration with new bezel, the crown and full polish. It's been with Rolex for two months already. Will post pics
