First, the only way Rolex can 'fix this' is to replace the dial and hands, but be advised, Rolex lume on the majority of its non sport models is at best tolerable and at worst, not an attribute you'd want to brag about.

It's likely you've got the older Tritium lume which according to those far better versed in physics than I, has a half life of about 12 years...meaning that after 12 years, the lume is only half as good as it was when new, and the degradation goes down from there.

I love night lume as I wear my watches when I sleep and don't have a luminated clock in my bedroom, but I've long learned to give up wearing a Rolex on the overnight, instead opting for a different brand that though far less expensive than a Rolex, maintains lume for the full 8 hours.

Rolex USA will only 'fix this' with a full service and an additional charge for a new dial and hand set and that will add most likely about $400 to the total bill not counting the service cost.

It is possible to see out the very small number of skilled people who can and will, for a price, relume a dial and hand set, but my guess is they'd likely charge just about the same as Rolex replacement for that service.

Good night, and good luck.
