16710 Pepsi service
Just wanted to share my recent experience at RSC on my 16710 for anyone out there considering it as I had a lot of questions at the time.
My watch was serviced within 2 weeks, I opted for a new bezel insert and got to keep the old one, as well as a new bracelet and retained the oyster one. One of things I’m most pleased with is the chamfering on the lugs. The finish is like a brand new watch. Very satisfied and I think it looks great! |

Congrats! That actually answers many common questions.
Two more: 1. Would you be willing to share the cost breakdown? 2. What RSC location did you use? |

1. Basic service cost was (~£600 with VAT) another £900 for the jubilee. Not worth it for everyone I guess but was to me. Bezel insert was cheap around £40. New parts were only supplied fitted to the watch. The bezel click spring had snapped so that the bezel was jammed - they fixed this without charging. The case back also appears new to me without being charged (thought it may have been finished I have no way of knowing) 2. It was in the UK |

Looks awesome, I love the 16710. I've always thought the jubilee looks better with the steel bezel than ceramic.
When you buy a new bezel or bracelet, don't they normally keep the old ones? I thought that was the standard policy but I guess that's changed...?? |

OP, your watch looks amazing!
If you don't mind me asking. Did RSC also change your outer steel bezel ring? I'm guessing your bezel ring must have had a few dents or scrapes, just wondering if they polish or replaced for you? I'm asking cause I have a few scrapes on my sub date bezel ring. Thanks in advance.

They did a hell of a nice job on those chamfers.

Looks great! The jubilee option is a nice addition. What does the clasp look like?
