Service/Ownership Costs of an AP ROO
Hey Guys,
As I ponder moving to this brand, was wondering if anyone could provide some info on service/ownership costs (H Series ROOC)? Will they be that much more than Rolex? How often do you send in? Any input appreciated |

All basic service costs are listed on the AP website. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the type of AP your looking to service. Polish costs are listed seperately. Service costs for an AP are a bit higher than a Rolex, but this is typical for luxury watches. The more a watch cost the more it cost to care for it as well.

Thanks for the link. Think I got caught up reading about some Vintage Service costs (threw up in my mouth a little bit).
I can stomach $1500 every 5 years (hopefully!); If anyone has any tips etc; I'll take them (Plan on registering for the 3rd year etc). |

I just paid exactly $1040 for a full service including parts for my RB2 Ti at Clearwater AP Service Center. FYI

Thanks for the reply. I tend to overthink scenarios's (part of my job that seeps into real life).

Vintage is vintage and cost more to no matter which brand.
A regular service every fifth year doesn't cost much more then your average Rolex Daytona.
