Hey there,

Yes, they had 3 pepsi and 1 coke of varying years/condition. They vary in price from £4500 up to £7000 depending on the year (the latter being a 2007 piece)
HOWEVER, I would go more by the condition and if it has box (with EVERYTHING) and papers as mine has every tiny winy bit even the plastic bezel protector..this tells me this guy loved and cared for it. Mine is a 2004 F serial which I prefer as the older ones have the pins in the lugs/bracelet which I dont think is as solid. After it comes back from RSC with new seals, gaskets etc and a Rolex standard polish I am hoping it will look as close to 2004 factory as possible :)

So incredibly, it seems there was some miscommunication at RSC and they have emailed me saying they are sending me a SECOND Rolex - The Final Frontier book!!

Email them to let them know that you received a book upon your visit to the RSC, it's the right thing to do. You will feel good knowing that you did the right thing. Rolex will thank you, who knows that may elevate you to a preferred customer (if there is such a thing) and be invited to attend VIP events. Even if none of that happens doing the right thing is always great, and always a win.
