Incoming from RSC.
Just got Mrs Beast's new-to-her F-serial Air-King 14000M back from RSC Hong Kong. Full service and a light polish: US$250 (HK$1,950), with a superfast 11-day turnaround. Also picked up the new magazine, and a 2014 Rolex calendar. And they sized the bracelet for her on the spot. Another great job from RSCHK.

Looks great.
It's $800 here, plus applicable parts and they seize engraved backs and refuse to return or refit them.
I heard of the case where an owner had to get the police in to force them to surrender an engraved case back, on the grounds Rolex Sydney was stealing it.
The joys.....

I missed this thread the first time round.

Looks and sounds like great service from your RSC once again Adam.

Thanks. The cool thing is that it comes back with a two year international warranty, so if I (or whoever owns it) am ever in, say, New York in the next two years and it stops working, then RSC NY will have to fix it for free.

Oldie but still goodie post. This is why, as much as I support independent watchmakers, most of my modern collection will be serviced by RSC when needed. Vintage is a whole different story.

The black dial is a stunner. Pairs very well with the Monogram LV
