Probably not! They'd polish it up

My wife's 6618 had its crystal replaced when I took it in for service. The orig crystal apears to be good but Rolex changed it anyway.

All depends on their assessment. I think for sure if it has an aftermarket acrylic, they will change it.

I believe Rolex replaces all acrylic crystals during service.

Have they given you an estimate?

£300-500 depending on parts required would be my guess.
