Pressure Test?

Hello all,

Asking for some quick advice: I recently purchased a 16570 from DavidSW and am wondering: Should I have it pressure tested? I have no record of any recent service. Can I walk into Rolex RSC here in NY and will they do it on the spot or will they only do it as part of a larger service effort?

Thanks!

good question. Not sure if RSC will do a quick pressure test or not but I've heard that some watch stores might be able to. Anyone else know if RSC will do that for you?

I just bought a 16710 and needed an extra link, so I went to London Jewelers in Manhasset and had it pressure tested as well

Most any high street jeweler watchmaker could pressure check its quite a simple process, even a dry test to 100m if passes that test it will be fine for all normal water sport including scuba.
