Disappointing Deal With Tempoking (Anastasios)

[guest1]

I still can't figure out why a watch with a 2 year similar to rolex warranty would have any cost to be repaired.

What costs are you talking about because aside from the cost of the crystal there are no other costs. The OP chose to get the watch serviced. That cost can't be included because that isn't covered under any warranty. Any parts they replaced he had to pay for can't be included either because Rolex replaces those parts - at the owner's cost - so the originals won't fail during the two years the service warranty will be in effect. They didn't replace them because the watch was sent in with broken parts.

Had the watch not had an aftermarket crystal, this thread would have never happened. The OP had his dad's watch serviced and he wouldn't have bothered the seller to pay for it, just like a lot of people who buy a used Rolex send them in for service when they first get them.

The only costs really should be to replace the crystal because the aftermarket part wasn't disclosed (even if the seller didn't know it is his responsibility).
