It seems to me that it would be better not to play these guessing games. Trying to read between the lines and infer what Rolex is hinting by accepting your watch for a service will not give you certainty and it clearly will not provide convincing documentation for a future sale. In your place, if I were taking the time and trouble to go to Switzerland, I think I would directly request authentication in writing, even if it involves a fee.
