New crystal, bazel and insert…

I posted a picture of my SD 16600 a few days ago. I had my AD replace the crystal, bezel, insert and clasp. They also gave it a very light polish. I must say that I’m really happy with the result. It shines and it’s like being back in 2008 then it was purchased. God to go for the next 14 years.

How much did that cost? The old bracelets are so cheap in design maybe they are cheap to replace?
Was the sapphire damaged? They are tough to damage by scratching , usually a chip makes Rolex replace it.

Better than new because of its history.

That awesome. People worry about the scratches and dings but your pics clearly show that one can keep these in pristine shape should they want that Rolex can make them as good as new no matter what we put them through.

Great job overcoming the 'don't polish' screeching mob. It looks fantastic.
