I will say this though. I had a 16710 once that I put up for sale. Being the honest person I am I disclosed that the hands had been replaced in service... with literally the exact same hands. Rolex said the same thing essentially and replaced them for free. This is with modern like so it’s the exact same hands. I had a few people decline the watch based on that.

Interesting ... I guess I would’ve preferred to keep mine as original as possible not so much for resale but just knowing it’s the same as the day it was born.
