Why does every explorer 2 crystal get chips on the edge?

[Jackxv]

A few months ago I went in for a pressure test, they quoted 40 euro

While waiting the repair man came back with the watch case, the old bezel and a new one.
The old bezel suffered some cracked paint when removed.

He mounted a new one and painted the old one, but because of the drying couldn't be mounted. He gave me back the old one.

The invoice was 115 euro's for the bezel and 40 for the pressure test.

That should be the punchline of this discussion...

Together it will be 275 euro, about 240 pound.

That makes me feel a little better.

Just spoken to Rolex in Bexley and they advised to bring it up for a pressure test in case the crystal has a crack. They weren't forthcoming about price but did tell me to service my 15210 Date would be £260
