Twenty weeks!? That's almost as long as it takes to make one!

Five months to get a watch serviced is just insanity.

Yeah.... it takes much less than a year to make a Rolex... What kind of service was the Daytona in for?

Ahhh that would make sense. Hope you enjoy it, I've always thought that RSC did an amazing job making a watch look new again.

I am happy that I have a fine jewelry store nearby, formerly a Rolex AD, where I can have my watches expertly serviced in two or three days. Their watchmaker has been working on Rolexes for 40 years.
