SubMariner Service Question

[Parksie]

Hi all,

This is my first post.

I have my 2003 Submariner booked in for service in Sydney and have the option of replacing the bezel insert.

However the service centre told me today that I would not be receiving the old bezel insert back when I pick up the watch.

I am interested to know if replacing the bezel insert has any affect on long term value way down the track?

I have attached a photo which shows that there are a few small scratches on the insert after 15 years if daily use.

Thanks.
