Don't ask me why, I was as surprised as you are.

Sorry to hear. Have a Exp II myself. I wonder what could have happened that causes this.

Let me see........I am going to pay an extra $1,000-$2,000 just so I can have a 2 year warranty for the rare possiblility that my watch fails in the that time period. No thanks, pre-loved and send it in to Rikki if there happens to be a problem. I trust him over RSC anyways.

The personal care of an individual watchmaker is so far superior over.........who really knows who services your watch at RSC?? I mean......they won't even tell you what was wrong with your watch?!! That is BS. I think it is reasonable to know what happened and why it failed. I mean, it is your watch. Rolex sometimes treats the consumer like we are leasing their watches and they really still own them.
