Old is New Again incoming

[majidessa]

It looks great! I have a TT Daytona that is almost 20 years old that I'm considering to service, how much did the service cost ? do you know if they have upgraded / replaced any movement parts, and did they polish the bezel ?

[MrMercedes]

Great!!

[RyanO]

Looks great Gary thanks for sharing!

How do the edges/lines look close up? As good as when it was new or a little softer?

Yes, I wanted their expert polishing. I'm quite pleased!!

No issues and I apparently caused a one month delay having missed their confirmation email with the estimate...

I don't think it was more than a routine service. The bezel and watch were polished but I did get a call and they told me the watch was in fantastic shape for its age.

I think its great, no softness that I can detect, which is another reason for posting, life is short, dont be afraid of having experts polish the watch as its definitely like getting a brand new one all over again!!!

Congrats!!! Thanks for sharing pics, nice treat as I'm impatiently waiting to hear from RSC about mine. Mind if I ask what the service set you back? I like the service packaging, looks classy!

Pretty amazing the quality of work found at BH RSC from my experience. I particularly like it that it is now walk in only. The entire experience is much more personable.

I agree. I really enjoyed the experience. When we went there in Dec, my wife and I and the lady who took my watch in were the only people there. Next time one of my watches needs to be serviced I’ll just time it again with visiting my sons in LA lol…

LOL, I don't live in LA anymore, but it is worth a trip to go to BH RSC imho.

Edit: I was in a rush though, but next time I'll ask for a tour. Not sure what will happen with that, but I've been doing business with them since 2004...maybe that will count for something.

Old becomes new again. A heartening story as I’m currently waiting for a YG one to return from service with a polishing as we speak.

Nice.

1) That is a super sharp looking dial on a gold watch
2) It’s nice to see a watch get a Rolex professional polish for the first time in 22years without anyone going berserk on the thread
3) I think $1000 for the service is about what I’ve heard, so I’m glad it hasn’t gone up or incurred a PM premium
4) when I dropped mine off at Beverly Hills RSC for a warranty issue, they shipped it to PA where they do a lot of Daytona servicing, so I’m surprised it got shipped from BH.

That is interesting but yeah, I got some updates from BH and talked to a very nice French lady there a few times. She was the person I handed the watch to in December. My wife and I had a nice chat with her that day and she asked if we wanted some chocolate. I was really excited when I thought it might be branded as Rolex but sadly it was not. Tasted good though lol…

Congrats and the watch looks fantastic!

The BH RSC team is fantastic. Sounds like you spoke to Matilda, who is extremely nice, knowledgeable, and helpful.

Wear and enjoy that watch - it’s a beautiful Daytona indeed!

I think that is who we spoke with. Extremely nice lady. We were there while LA was still strict with Covid protocols which even though we were first in to Rolex that morning, they were only dealing with one customer at a time. I will definitely deal with them in the future!!

[JohnGingerwood]

It’s like getting a new watch. I get a sick satisfaction waiting for a watch to come back from service.
