Rolex GV Replacement Cost

No worries, I haven't broken my GV sapphire crystal. But the thought occurred to me that the GV would cost a lot more to replace than the standard. Rolex didn't even patent the process because "it's so difficult, no one else will try." I found one thread on TRF from 2012 with estimates around 400-500 USD minus the cost of a full service to check for fragments in the movement.

Has anyone else lived through this tragic and expensive experience, specifically with the GV? What did it cost you and did you try to use insurance (home or property)? I would never consider an aftermarket replacement part in this case.

I'm not superstitious but I can't help but be nervous even writing this post. "I haven't been sick in over a year." Sneezing and coughing a week later...
