It worked out to about €1100 give or take I was super impressed to get the
the old parts but it’s only a small Rolex service center and they
Do all the work in work so I guess that it’s why it’s a nice touch for sure .

Looks outstanding. Did they swap your hands with service parts? They appear to be in excellent condition.

I've never heard of anyone getting parts back from Rolex.

The best part..The Gold Crown!

It's more common in Europe. Some watchmakers at Rolex ADs in the US will return parts as well. I know one myself.

The crown on this one is stainless. It's good to get the original back since it's period-correct.

When I first got it the bezel was very loose and time keeping wasn't great plus winding it felt a little rough and the bezel pip was a mess but apart from that it was great lol
I was lucky that I had a spare bezel from a 73 red sub which fit
