Beverly Hills RSC before and after photos of my 16613
I hope this post help people here...... Feel free to ask questions
I took my 16613 to the Beverly Hills RSC for a regular service. The watch was stopping few hours after being winded and had normal everyday scratches on the bracelet and case. The cost of the service was $747, that included the service, polishing and the winding crown monobloc (this is part of the service from what I was told). I was also recommended to change the bezel but I declined since it looks perfect to me, plus my watch is not a daily wearer to have the bezel replaced, i dont see it damages or discolored, it also does not have any scratches or blemishes to my eye. The whole service took 5 weeks as told by the Rolex representative. The watch was given to me looking brand new, all the edges, case, bracelet and case looks great as it came from the factory. Is incredible how new they make the watch look again. Below before and after photos, I know you guys love to see them :) |

Looks great. I wouldn't change the bezel at all. It looks perfect from your pics. Why did they say they wanted to change it?

That's why I love sending watches back for service. Not only do you get back a serviced tip top movement, everything comes back looking spanking new. Just don't really like the turnaround time, wishing everything can be done within a week or so at rsc.

They didn't say. It was just recommended once inspected by the tech when I dropped the watch for service. If I remember correctly, they said the bezel was recommended when serviced. I understand if it looks damaged or worn but that was not my case. They wanted $135ish for it if I remember correctly.

Its a good thing you didn't because the hue might not have been the same.
