Any one have a good idea, how much to replace a sapphire crystal on a sub? I think its about $1200 bucks. Correct?
Thanks

I was thinking a lot less than that! Maybe $110 to $120?

I'm going to agree with Mike and Val on this.

The cost of a Rolex is in the precious metals used, and, of course, the mystique mark-up.

case-backs, crystals, dials and other small parts are relatively cheap. These are replaced, if necessary, in the ~$500 service at an RSC for a relatively small increase.
