Better bend over and grab your ankles very well before sending the watch to a Rolex dealer.
I have used them for years but now have found a retired watchmaker who has worked on them for years. It used to cost me over $500 each just to open up the puppy at Rolex but now this guy cleans and goes through my watches for $175. Reminds me, I have to get a couple over to him right now for some service.
Rolex has for the last 3-5 years stopped supplying parts and tools for the watches, trying to make servicing them a "dealer"only option. Its not been viewed by the Rolex owners as a good thing.
