I've heard that too.

One more thing is, the factory will typically re-finish the watch to new condition, including polishing scratches out of the case/band. If you take your watch to a watchmaker, he'll typically only fix what's broken. So, you do get more value from your factory service. However, if the watch looks good and it's a "DD", a good watchmaker can get it running again.
