The experience you report is apparently not consistent with everyone's.

That’s definitely something you can’t always say for independent service facilities or local contractors, they simply don’t have the time, skill and equipment to do what Rolex does.

Wow. So ignoring the aspects of your reply that border on ad hominem insinuation, you can speak for the practices of every RSC worldwide, over years of experience? And you can broadly summarize all independents as well? Because, y'know, that's a what multiple respondents in a dedicated watch forum essentially do - give a broad window into practices over many AD's and RSCs - as well as independents.
I'm out. This particular conversation is clearly pointless. And you seem like a poopy-head.
