Not worth anyone wasting more time with this guy. He doesn’t follow through.

Wiener48 · 17 January 2020, 06:00 PM

Guys, come down please, it’s only a watch...

It’s not about a watch, it’s the fact that you ignore people trying to help you. You are a lamprey.

Its just not worth it.

Wiener48 · 4 May 2022, 05:38 AM

Guys hello. It’s a time ago but I did something brave last year, I sent the watch to Geneva to Rolex direct for a “service”. All my friends said don’t do it but I did.

What you think what was the response (after around 3 month)?

Curious what your opinion is, what you guess :-)

swaini3 · 4 May 2022, 06:41 AM

loooooooooooool

TimeLord2 · 4 May 2022, 07:18 AM

Really…? I would be surprised if anyone cared at this point.

What not just tell us.

TuRo · 4 May 2022, 06:29 PM

I’ll take the 288gto (I think as fuzzy in depth of field) to the left of your watch, even if it’s got a load of service parts too !

The reply from Rolex probably went something like this....

"in the late 70's a breakaway group of rebel Rolex technicians decided to create a monster..."

This piece smells of something brought to the market by Luke Rottman and authenticated by Robert Maron

Wiener48 · 5 May 2022, 04:39 AM

OK, the watch was sent to Geneva to Rolex and they proofed that all is real and done by them back in the past, so they made me an offer to “restore” and service the watch. If something would be not real or official they don’t make an offer to service and restore, this is known.

So it is a unique watch, one of a kind.

TuRo · 5 May 2022, 04:40 AM

Cuckoo.

How much did they quote?

What needs to be restored?

Wiener48 · 5 May 2022, 05:33 AM

For the offer/quote the price was 3.200 euro and for the service it was 28.000 (!!!) Euro

I don't understand. By quote I meant the price of the total service. What do you mean by it? And 28k for a service?

Wiener48 · 5 May 2022, 05:52 AM

OK sorry for the confusion, I try again. The price for the Quote was 3.200 and the price for the service was 28.000 euro

Why don't you show us this quote?

Wiener48 · 5 May 2022, 06:25 AM

Why you don’t believe it?

I think this whole this isn't funny. Threads like this waste peoples time and don't help educate and grow a community. So to help you along - I don't believe you. I think this thread should be locked and you should consider how you add to the forum in the future.

Wiener48 · 5 May 2022, 06:29 AM

Sorry, I will not post the letter from Rolex here, please understand. Believe it or not, up to you.

Wahlberg · 5 May 2022, 06:47 AM

Why would this service cost 28k? What will they do?

MrChamfers · 5 May 2022, 06:49 AM

What a waste of time this thread is...There should be a marker in the forum for threads that really, really blow chunks.

Wiener48 · 5 May 2022, 06:55 AM

I try to translate:

- Restoring the movement, cleaning, replacing all parts what are necessary, oil, new adjust
- dial cleaning
- new hands
- cleaning outside
- replace plexi glass
- bazel change
- crown cleaning
- end control of alle

Greetings ;-)

Blueline226 · 5 May 2022, 07:20 AM

Awesome, you have a unique one of a kind piece worth at least six figures. Have it serviced and enjoy. Move on then nothing left to see here.
