14060 polish and service

[Darkangel]

Hi,

So have you worked out a deal for members? In any case, can you share the contact with me as I'm keen to service my watch as well. Also, does he do a waterproof test and what happens to parts that are missing or damaged? Does he replace with original rolex parts?

I guess he did work out a deal for our members

had another chat with the watch technician again. he shared with me some personal insights on what goes through during a watch servicing process. there are many methods and ways of doing. on surface it may seem that the watch is indeed being cleaned. however, there are small little steps along the way which he perform that really makes the watch cleaning process thorough. to polish and do a full service on my watch takes almost 6 hours which means it is slightly more than half the day. time taken for stripping, oiling, assembly is less compared to cleaning the parts and others. taking effort not to over polish the watch takes time, the time taken to do regulation seems longest. why? initially i thought you just adjust the +-, not as easy as i think. besides making sure the watch is within COSC spec, there is also time and effort needed to ensure that there is enough power reserve on the watch.

i brought in my second hand watch, put it on the time regulating machine. he told me is within COSC spec but amplitude reading is not ideal. he can then tell me it is probably due to blah blah blah. technical details again. shall not elaborate too much.

after another 1 hour chat with him over dinner. im fully convinced my ~380 spent is worth every effort he did. now, i wonder if another technician A who charges me less, is it possible for technician A to do the same amount of work for less price?

food for thought everyone

besides talking to him and owner of shop, we are closer towards a package that is meant for sg-roc members. stay tuned!!!
