The cost of service at RSC vary based on the watch?

Does the RSC change based on the type of movement the watch has? Say would a Submariner with a 3130 movement cost less to service than a Daytona with a 4130 movement? Also would the cost vary with the pressure testing also? Would they charge more to pressure test a Sea Dweller vs pressure testing a DateJust?

Yes, the service of a more complicated movement costs a little more than a simple one. Pressure testing should be the same cost, regardless of model.

This is not a good comparison because a Daytona is a more complicated chronograph movement. Daytonas have always cost more to service.

Rolex has a base price that would cover many models that share like movements. Precious metal models have an increment to the base price, and so on.

After that, non-covered parts are added on: crystal, crowns, hands, etc.

From my experience the cost is the same except when they replace a bracelet, that varies a lot.
