What does a service on a Rolex include?

You're welcome, I do have to point out that the service at a RSC works a little different since they have a different person performing every step of the way, while I do it all myself. The watch at a RSC doesn't see a watchmaker until the timing process.

It really depends on what needs to be done on top of the routine stuff. Meaning if I have to adjust a lot of jewels, change a balance staff, or it just doesn't time out right, it can be anywhere from 5 to 8 hours I guess... And then there are the 5 days of timing on top of that.
I never really do just one watch at a time. I usually service 2 Rolex' of different caliber at once. This can take me about 1 to 2 days + the 5 days.
