If I send my Pepsi to Rolex for repairs, what will they do with the older TritiumDial

My Pepsi just up and died this week. Went from working ok (not perfect) but ok, to pretty much not working at all.

So Im gonna send it in to Rolex but am worried what they will do to my Tritium dial with great patina.

Will they switch out the dial, relume the markers....?

Any body have any experience with that?


Thanks

Send it to Bob Ridley if you are concerned about Rolex butchering your watch.

Pretty sure you can just ask Rolex not to mess with the dial.

I had my Exp II w/tritium dial "overhauled" and it came back with the same dial. So I wouldn't anticipate any problem but it won't/can't be "relumed"; when tritium dies, it dies.

They do nothing that you don't pay for. So if the dial is OK then nothing to be done.

Give clear instructions to leave the dial alone to RSC.

The RSC quote will itemise (with cost) the work the watch needs, you can then opt for what you require to take place
