Seems to be a couple of good pronounced scratches already in this pic. They don't look like whipe marks either.

Maybe take it back and have them finish the job?

The MACRO mode shot has made it look more pronounced. Honestly, you can't see anything with the naked eye!!

I thought Goldfinger just melted gold down and stuck it into the doors of his Rolls Royce.

Thanks, buddy.....yes, this Rolex guy is very, very good. I even had him regulate it as it was gaining +2 seconds/day (way beyond my standards).

Checked this morning - he's now tuned it down to ZERO deviation!!

oneillba · 31 January 2009, 04:48 AM

Looks amazing JJ. You need to get out your camera and take many more creative pictures before it gets any scratches form normal wear and tear. It is a beauty!

Those scratches were put on by the previous owner.

You'd be surprised how careful I can be with these babies!!

I am exactly the same mate

Never mind you have to take care of these babies! Some TLC is necessary on these timepieces!

WOW JJ, it looks new again. Isn't it amazing how these watches can be brought back to life again. Your AD did a very nice job, it's great having a AD that can do this work and not have to deal with a RSC.

Actually, my AD is an AD-cum-RSC.

The entire ground floor space is confined to the showroom and display area, but the mezzanine floor has a fully equipped Rolex Service Centre.

I think it is just fine!

Parachrom · 31 January 2009, 06:11 AM

Yes that shade of blue on a 18kt Sub would be grail like for me. of course saphire indices are a must
