Hi Vanessa,

Thanks for sharing that.

Personally I think $400 odd dollars for all that is a bargain. Here in the UK we pay about £400 for a service... Which is a lot more i.e. $635. Perhaps you might suggest to someone that the British align their prices with the US, bearing in mind the exchange rate, to more accurately reflect your price of a service i.e. £252? Pretty please... ;)

Just had my 1999 Rolex White Gold Day Date serviced... And I have to say, WOW! It came back looking near as good as new. Last year it suffered a little scratch on the case (occurred when I was sailing in the Med)... Nothing too deep mind you, but enough to clearly notice it every time I wore it and think "Drat!". Then, when it came back from Rolex in St. James Square, London, it had vanished! Perfect.

Still... Despite that... What really makes me feel the service is worth every penny is the 2 year service guarantee... AWESOME!
