=If you take it to any AD they will send it to RSC for a quote. Usually takes two weeks for a quote. If you decide to go ahead, the work itself can take a bit longer. I usually use Ernest Jones for mine.

It would be easier to give an estimate of refurb costs if we could have a little look-see...

I'm not sure about the UK, but in the USA the Rolex RSC will not refinish the case and bracelet except in conjunction with the regular 5 year service or unless there is a mis-adventure, but then they will insist on a service to ensure that it is sound..

You should give them a call first.......
