I understand your reasoning. This is really how a thirty year old Rolex should be treated, if it is supposed to be used as intended. The RSC should update it as much as possible.

The good thing is that you now have a 30 year old watch that is ready to be used as if it where brand new. No worries about fragile tritium hands, or legibility.

Well done!

Must admit though, that I like the untouched vintage look as much as this one (perhaps even more)! I also must admit that the oldest watch I have that I use "daily and for everything" is only twelve years old. The only vintage watch I would use daily (and for everything) would be a 5513 like yours... and I am looking for one ;-)

Best,

A
