Pressure Test Price
All what is a reasonable range for a newer model Rolex to be pressure tested? I assume that it depends on the relationship, but is $0 - $100 a safe bet?
If the watch needs to be resealed what is a reasonable range across 1-3 seals (i.e. only crown vs. crown/glass/caseback)? |

There are two types of tests. Dry and wet. I would think a dry test would be done as a courtesy with little or no charge. Wet is more involved and would probably incur a modest fee. As far as cost to reseal it would all depend on where you chose to have the work performed. ie rolex service verses local watch guy.

Rolex Canada has done the dry test for me complementary
If I were getting seals changed I'd play it safe and have crown, case back and crystal seal changed all at the same time. My past experience has been tha AD's will also perform the dry test free of charge.

I know some Tourneu stores do it free, but I exhausted my freebies (started to feel awkward) so I found a place that does it for $45 here in Miami.
