Just back from the Rolex Canada Service Centre...
Tudor Submariner Ref. #79190 (sapphire crystal) on a #93150/380B solid-link Rolex bracelet. A late '90s classic...the very last model reference to employ "Rolex" signage on the crown and caseback before Rolex changed over to the Tudor shield for the few remaining years the Tudor Sub was manufactured.
This Sub has been seriously pampered and well-preserved...all that Rolex did, while I waited, was change the bezel insert at my request, only because the luminous pip on the original insert had sunk slightly, which bothered me (though the Rolex tech said it looked fine to him). They also gave the bracelet a quick complimentary polish. All for only a hundred bucks...not bad! |

Glad to hear everything went well! I'm trying to get a tour of the factory at the end of next month. I'm heading to RSC with my Dad. There's a frozen screw on his 16713.

Happy to hear you had good service.......although I'm not surprised. I've personally had nothing but exemplary service there myself!!
 Lovely watch by the way!

The 93150 bracelet always has the Rolex-signed clasp...it's a Rolex Sub bracelet.
