Step 1.

Make sure there's a watchmaker in your home.

Step 2.

Video him while he services your Rolex.

I posted this a few months ago.

I suspect the title is meant facetiously...

If you are going to work on your own watch, make sure you have a good workspace and the correct tools.

Thanks. I'm going to give this a try right after I master tying my shoes.

Definitely interesting. Once he got past opening the case, he lost me though... I think I'll stick with RSC.

I think you need a real mindset to do things like that (and a steady hand) I used to be a dental tech. and that kind of intense work can drive you crazy!
I find it hard to get motivated to put things back together too

Servicing your won Rolex (or any watch for that matter) isn't hard. All you need is to graduate watchmaker school, purchase a lot of tools and equipment (for a rediculous amount of money), set up a decent workspace in your home away from distractions and potential contaminates and the time and determination to actually do it.
Other than that, its simple! LOL
