My Pepsi GMT II Serviced by RSC NY Like New!

Guys, sent my Pepsi in 4 weeks ago and just got it back from RSC NY. Watch has been restored to new and full overhaul except I kept the original bezel and didn't have it changed out. Total costs through my AD were $795 inc tax. Glad to have her back!

wow - that is awesome.

Glad you couold keep your original bezel - I "thought" RSC would replace it so as to leave showroom new? Good to know RSC will honor such a request.

My AD "Family Owned Business" has been a Rolex Dealer for 63 years and he has an excellent working relationship with the guys up at RSC NY. They usually honor his special requests. That was the reason I went through him and I don't mind paying a little extra to support my local AD. He is a great guy!

It would be optional unless the piece were so damaged that Rolex would not service it unless replaced.

Here, the bezel and insert look great, so, no reason to think RSC would have required a new insert.

Looks beautiful. $795 for a full service did they change the crystal or did they just service the movement & polish the bracelet.
