BD, it will come back looking like new. My Daytona had to go in for an overhaul (early) due to some problems. When it came back, it was running better then it ever had, and looked like it belonged in the display case.
They say 6 to 8 weeks, but mine took about 4, went to RSC Dallas. When I got it back, it was with a nice gurantee slip, a Rolex "pouch" and some other nic-nacs. I know it's a bit nerve-racking, but don't worry, it will be fantastic when returned. |

I sent in a 10 year old Air King that had been worn everyday (swimming, golf, mountain biking, etc). It came back looking brand new and runs perfectly (+0.5 sec/day).

If you get it serviced and polished, the RSC will make it look like new.

A watch that looks and runs like factory-fresh, and a bill for $550.00+
