The watch was improperly serviced by an authorized service center and it was discovered when the watch was due for the next service(by another authorized service center), not by Rolex themself. I’m sorry to hear about your bad experience and I don’t dismiss the experience but in my case all my Rolex
The problem is that people are willing to pay more for such watches! In my case, as many times a sealed watch was offered(with a premium), I always told the dealer to cut and keep the plastic, so there you have the solution…
I’m happy for you, it’s made to be driven and enjoyed! Maybe you get some time to take a couple of new pictures for our enjoyment too! I like seeing that car!
