Tiny scratch mark on Sapphire Date Cyclops

Never noticed this before but there is a small scratch mark on the Date Cyclops of my GMT Master IIC.

Probably picked it up somewhere.

Was wondering if I could do anything about this eventually:

Do the Rolex service centers replace it? If so at what cost?


If they dont, what can be done about it?

You can have it replaced at service. I wouldn't worry much about it.

Thanks for the input, what sort of prices are we looking at, is it an additional or is it included as the overall charge?

sapphire crystals are like $100 or $150 extra at servicing

The cyclops is just stuck on the crystal and they can be removed and replaced. But the RSC would want to replace the complete crystal so its best left to service time.
